I was a stan since I was born, especially during the n64/Rare era. They made me into a fan again. Wii was too gimmicky for me. lol
Part of the reason i'm on board with this is its not as gimmick as the Wii. its an HD console with a focus on actual gameplay and innovation not motion controls.

:what: And by gameplay you mean new super Mario wii u :beli:
They not focusing on gimmicks? What you think that big ass tablet is?
Now it's "the tablet can aid you" big fukking whoop. What is this killer game?
There isn't one. So you clowns now get to make up one. I know, smash brothers wii-u :old:
Or insert another dead franchise so a few weirdos can come out there closets and be like "Nintendo never left" :ahh:

:stopitslime:

Overall, this is a gimmick. Not even a good one. If there focus is current gen games for the hardcore, the hardcore have less than a year before Xbox 720 hits. Translation: in five years the wii-u will be dead for 2yrs already :manny:

The tablet isn't a gimmick its just an interface device. the motion controls were gimmicks.

I'm not the type of gamer that buys a console for a single title. if Xenoblade or Mario comes out and i wanna play that i wanna be able to walk in the store and buy it. same with Halo and Uncharted. i don't even wanna have to pass on a major title because i don't own the system to play it on.

honestly to me there's no such thing as a killer app in gaming. no single game justifies the purchase of a console to me because a console cost several hundred dollars and a game is maybe $60. the hell i look like paying $500 or so bucks to play one game?

this coming from someone who doesnt have the console... :beli:

:usure:

"Range is an issue. The GamePad reportedly works up to 25 feet away from the console, but walls and other sources of interference may well intervene."

Nintendo Wii U review: GamePad | Games consoles Reviews | TechRadar

"Differences will arise depending on whether you live in a house made of wood or an apartment of reinforced concrete, and what materials the walls are made out of," Iwata said.

Nintendo says that the Wii U will not encounter issues within the same room, though walls and other materials may limit the controller's range beyond that single room."

So basically u live in a house with walls made of wood :heh:
