Life taught me to get Microsoft/Sony console first, because their games price rarely drops. And after that get a Nintendo Console, and buy their games for $10.

Oh, wait...

 

P.S: It's kinda funny that the most successful and popular topics in VGZ are the trolling, bashing and flaming ones. 

Life taught me to only get every other Sony/MS console because they are backwards compatible.

Oh, wait....

;P

Life has also taught me to buy Microsoft/Sony console first, buy few games at full price while other games dropped.  And after that get  a nintendo console when it's super cheap, buy that time you can find first party games at half the price.

I did this with the Wii, bought for it for $70 with mario galaxy(20), twilinght pricess($20), resident evil zero ($20)

Valid point :)

This generation there was no other way around for me. They were asking for full price for a PS4 for game, while I could pick up the same game at PS3 20 bucks less. 

Start this gen at Wii U was the best plan for me, I got the Mario Kart bundle, with all the others First-Party and exclusives. Now I bought the Xbox One, mainly because of the low price at Brazil and Scalebound.

P.S: And actually I can bought Ryse, Forza, TitanFall, Killer Instict for such a low price. The games surely drops price way more fast than Wii U games.

These cross-gen titles are a really deal breaker for me to buying these consoles first.

Don't forget the upcoming Splatoon. It's pretty much a copy of other games that shoot. Sure, the graphics are colourful unlike most other shooters but that excuse didn't save Wind Waker from being more of the same now, did it?

Exactly what I did last gen, and forsee the same for this. (Unless MS pulls some truly magnificent exclusives out their collective ass, then XB1 may be my secondary for 8th gen.)

I don't get it, almost everything in the industry is a copy/paste, last gent just Wii Sports and Minecraft were innovatives.

TLOU Uncharted meets Resident Evil was not innovative, it was just pinnacle of gaming.

Yes and it has the added benefit of all the games already being out. No months where absolutely zero games come out.

Exactly, so it can go either way.

P.D  damn I didn't realize how many mistake I made in my last post, I mean English isn't my first language but I'm better than that, typing too fast hurt as well, need to do more double checking.

I understand, my whole point was that it can go either way depending of the user needs.  Choices!!!
