I'm not copping one until next year, but ZombiU look dope as shyt. That, Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate, Wonderful 101, Mario U, and Pikmin is getting copped as soon as I pick one up.

Played it at Gamestop today. The rayman demo wasn't too exciting I only played for a few minutes. The demo was a bit far too complicated for a child I feel.
Or maybe your just a dumbass :yeshrug:
This is Nintendo's last chance on the console side and they know it. They are releasing before everyone for a reason to try to finally figure out a way to get over the lack of 3rd party support on their console.

heads need to remember history...this is Nintendo's first time being first leading into a new console generation (you could argue the OG NES, but it wasn't really first)
The OG NES was first. You gonna go on some "Well in japan the master system came out first"
Well who gives a fukk. NES was first for most of us, unless you was around during the atari years (I recall my bro having one before I got my nintendo)
But lets move on..
I think it won't be as successful as the Wii but it will be initially successful mainly from the younger crowd. My son is 6 going on 7 and that was his first time seeing or hearing about it and he wanted it bad based off the controller alone. He's been saying he only wants a tablet for Christmas for the past couple months and all it took was the wii-u to change his mind smh.

Me personally....I've ignored copping Nintendo consoles since the n64 because of lack of software support...they NEVER have a consistent stream of quality mature titles..there's always a long wait. I may get one for my son for Christmas to make him happy but I'm pretty sure it will become expendable within the next 2 or so years after having it.

Since as in BEFORE of during the N64 era? Cuz if you skipped out on the N64? :ufdup:
This will be the snes of our generation. The real wild card is square Enix who at the end of the day decides who wins the console wars. Ff7 was original gonna be on n64 but they switched to Sony bc cartridges were becoming outdated.

The power of wii u is being severely under estimated. Developers are easily porting over AAA titles to wii u with no problem. It they can keep 3rd pty support in 2013 multi platform games WILL look and play better on wii u.

Final fantasy is the deal breaker here. If Sony takes too long and we don't see ps4 till 2014 there is a good chance SE will go back to Nintendo and make FF15 wii u exclusive, if that happens game over
I was gonna go on you, but this is an obvious troll. You had me for a second :russ:
Its a wild card. But it look like Nintendo is covering their bases. I dont see em ending up on top like the wii. But they just may end up in 2nd place.
Well the xbox has passed the wii in total sales, so that comment is no longer true. In fact, it was probably NEVER true, but it wasn't true for a long time
You see, Microsoft reports systems sold. Sony and Nintendo report systems shipped
And whats been happening all this time is Microsoft has been selling as fast as these other companies are shipping.
I know its hard to believe, but then when you go out into the wild and everybody everywhere has an xbox, it should be pretty damn easy to see.
And when was the last time you know of somebody who actually bought a wii?
But Sony lies, so anybody who is pro sony is just gonna eat it up as fact.
Everybody got a 360... not everybody got a ps3. But by the fake numbers, you'd think they was neck n neck still

Every year you see how the xbox is dominating both systems in sales of everything. But I digress...

The last 3 generations the inferior hardware has "won" the race in terms of sales.

PSX (N64 had better hardware)
PS2 (XBOX and the Gamecube had better hardware)
Wii (360 and PS3 had better hardware)

Console gaming is in a very strange place right now, who knows how the next gen is going to go. Kinect needs to improve, Sony needs to figure out what to do with move, and Nintendo...I don't know what else to say about Nintendo at this point...they need to work with 3rd party developers because thats what has held them back since the N64.

The Wii moved crazy units, but that 3rd party support was :trash: all gen. They don't get that 3rd party going early and sales are going to come to a halt after the first year.
This gen, the xbox won.
Last gen while the ps2 won, it came out first, and was continuing what the ps1 did. And it introduced dvd's to the masses. No way it could fail
Thats the reason why sony FORCED blu-ray onto us this gen, hoping they couldn't fail if they did.
the average gamer is older than most of us on here (30)
Last I read, the new average was 36 :leon:
Wii is for kids
there are a lot of fukkin kids

I'm saying it started WITH n64..there's was a lot of moments when I had n64 where I was just waiting...and waiting...and waiting for a new game to cop.

I owned
Starfox
Mario64
Mariokart
Goldeneye
Pilot wings


....I remember waiting a long fukkin time for banjo...I remember waiting a long fukkin time for perfect dark...the 3rd party support has been a problem since and after n64...don't let me talk about the horrible sports lineup options we had...Kobe Bryant NBA court side? Smh...that whole majority first party titles is not going to cut it that shyt will only get you so far..

The WiiU is going to be a failure. An abysmal failure that will just send Nintendo into a spiral crash. It's sad. The WiiU is not hot to me. fukk the Wiiu.

I just get the feeling that many of the people that went out and got a Wii only for it to collect dust will skip getting a Wii U.....

but i maybe wrong....

only if you redefine victory from having the most success and selling the most into public opinion of who you feel like put out the best product and even then that's debatable because the next person might not agree with you.

the Wii outsold the rest. people that don't like the Wii try to rationalize that into a way that the Wii didn't win when years ago the Wii sold so many units the outcome of this generation was already determined.

the numbers don't lie.

nikkas will use all sorts of mental gymnastics for this fanboy shyt :pachaha:

I honestly never gave two fukks about this console wars shyt. I had all 3 systems this gen, but after my 360 RROD'd for the 5th time that shyt ended up in the bushes. I'm honestly the most excited about the Wii U (even though ain't shyt been announced for MS/Sony).

ZombiU, Wonderful 101, Pikmin, and Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate all got me wanting a Wii U bad as fukk. Once that next Zelda/Mario drop though it's a wrap b :takedat:

My whole point is Nintendo main audience is teens and younger children. They are obviously succuessful with that group. Your average game that are in their 20s and above are tired of the lack of support from 3rd Parties for Nintendo systems. Financially Nintendo is making profits. From a gaming stand point, they should do something to capture some of XBOX and PS3 audience to make it a well rounded system.

I aint buying this shyt until yall nikkas beta test it for a year or 2. Bought that Wii off the strength of Smash Brothers online and that was absolutely the worst running online game I have ever played. Waste of my fukkin money.

Hell i think im gonna wait until someone cracks it and i can get free games.
