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.

Although I have no plans on purchasing one for myself...shyt is pretty slick..the controller and screen is huge yet still feels just as comfortable as a regular controller. My son was playing the ray man game..shyt was dope using the touchscreen to do certain things throughout the level. I wouldn't bring myself to cop something only a little better than current gen systems graphically but my son pretty much begged for that shyt...I can see kids eating that shyt up...I'm straight though.

Won't front though...streaming to the controller is seamless as fukk that's dope how they pulled it off its really polished.

shyt made me want some next gen consoles to drop NOW.

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 Ff7 was original gonna be on n64 but they switched to Sony bc cartridges were becoming outdated.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

Let's say that ports shyt is true...dog how long will that last. This gen is almost over with..the new Xbox is coming very soon.

I hear what you saying but the Wii was vastly different in regards to how it was played...the wii-u is basically and extension of something that's kind of already here..tablets used for gaming. I don't feel like it grabs peoples attention like the Wii did when it first came in the game.

The gap will be even bigger between the new Xbox and Wii u power wise...I think. The Wii was WAY more hyped at release than this from what I can tell and the concept was way more intriguing.
