Besides some aspects like voice chat, Nintendo seems to be hitting a stride they havent in many years. With 3rd party support and games looking and running well for a handheld system.
Its appealing to the millions who bought a 3ds, it is also appealing to those who want a console experience. Now if they can get some Virtual console stuff on the store it will be even better.
Its a great time to be a gamer with so many options. I am really enjoying everything the industry has to offer on all fronts, and I am excited for what will be coming out in the future, its been a really long time since that has happened for me.
