Well this pretty much confirms there won't be a big leap from this gen to the next and all 3 consoles will be cheaply priced casual friendly wagglefests.

Time to move to PC gaming after this generation.

I guess I'm one of those "hardcore" gamers that the Wii fanboys like to make fun of so much. They'll just have to excuse me for wanting more out of my games than anything the Wii offers at this time (and no, I'm not talking about graphics you one-note assholes).

No reason for personal attacks against the users of this site... and lets see if you hate the Wii so much when the ps4 becomes a "Wii 1.5"

Yes, please, go cry "troll" to the mods, even though there was absolutely no personal attack in my post *AT ALL*. You'll probably succeeed in getting me banned for it too, the way things have been around here lately.

Business is booming in the games industry. It's just that... Nintendo's the cause AND effect of the booming.

I'm pretty sure he was referring to that bolded red part in your post. Totally uncalled for.

Ye just because non-Nintendo consoles have great graphics, doesnt mean its the only thing they have to offer like so many Wii fanboys make you believe.

Sure it sells well, but does that make it the best console?

Thats like saying mcdonalds makes great food

Wow ...

I'm getting the impression that as this generation continues more and more people are going to become more and more bitter about how things turned out.

You're probably right there.

I'm pretty sure a personal attack has to address a specific person and not a generic reflex reaction from fanboys that's repeated ad nauseum even when graphics aren't mentioned at all in the conversation up until that point.
