Absolutely NOT.

  1. No proper HDD
  2. Don't like the console design (it's basically a curvy Wii, but uglier, with a longer rear end)
  3. If the GamePad is so publicized, why just 2? That would give the other 2 players a disadvantage if a 4 player game is played.
  4. So far only ports are shown utilizing the GamePad, which I can still get them on either PS3 or 360.
  5. Wii-U doesn't seem that powerful than 360 or PS3 to even justify the price, which is likely to be expensive
  6. 3rd party support seem all talk but no action.
  7. I already have those multimedia streaming Apps like Netflix or Crackle
  8. I'd rather just stick to my current 360 and PS3 for the long run of this gen and probably next gen.
  9. Where are the official Hardware Specs? Yes they do matter to the curious core gamers.

Yes and no. I really want to see more software first. That's pretty much the only thing that matters.

While Nintendo always had excellent 1st party games, I would also like good 3rd party support as well. Nintendo hasn't recieved that since the NES/SNES days.

If it doesn't happen with Wii U, then I give up with them & will just wait for a PS4/720.

Yes. Even with the lackluster E3 I'm still pretty excited for it. Enough games to keep me happy at launch. Still want to hear more info but I'll be buying it on launch day. Depending on the price that is.

I'm always excited about new ways to play games. It's why I bought a wii in the first place. If Pikmin 3 is at Launch with a couple other solid games. I'll more then likely be there at launch.

Nope. Looks like a 360 with Nintendo games. Which would have blown my mind in 2006 but not anymore. I'll prob end up getting it anyway cos I love Nintendo games. But to be honest it seems like another gimmicky, half baked console to me.

Not happy with Wii U so far.

I have a lot of issues with Sheep fanboys talking about how great it is and then disappearing when the bad news starts coming out or changing their arguments to no longer care about graphics.

Has anyone hear ever just said "sorry, I was wrong"?

I don't pass judgment on articles and stage shows. I've never tried it so I don't know.

Well I need to have one before I can really say. :P

But yeah I liked it from the get go. I really dig the controller and they've already announced games that I know I want. I've gotten way more than my moneys worth out of 5 Nintendo consoles in a row. Bring on #6!

I know I'm getting one, at this point I'm just deciding if I should go day 1 or just wait for a bit.

I do a lot actually.

I just don't need to in this case. I like what the console seems to offer thus far and never jumped on board some stupid hype train.

It seems you're more unhappy with a bunch of fanboys than you are with the actual platform which is weird.

Well, I think it'll be a very good system for kids, less devoted gamers and Nintendo fans alike. The other type of people will probably dislike it.

For me personally, I think it's a decent looking system but to impress me there would need to be more games I would like to play (which are not multi-plats and 2nd rate exclusives).

Honestly, the only reason i want it right now is to have a dam tablet controlling my TV just seems cool, i think it will sell well just because if i show it to a friend i feel like they will want one, its just one of those things that seems really cool. But im not buying it till SSB4 or MH4 comes out.

It's a decent start in all honesty. Mario and Pikmin + third party support (Rayman, AC3, Batman) will all be good games. Some gamers might be bummed that we aren't seeing games such as SSM4, F-Zero, Zelda or Metroid, but we'll see them later. The E3 show was indeed a bit lackluster, but overall the launch of the console could be worse than it'll be. If the price is right people will buy it regardless. Nintendo will just have to promise "Mario + HD" and the Nintendo crowd will buy accordingly.

Not so weird, but that is very true. I don't like hype, I especially don't like how the combination of hype and anonymity allow people to just be mean to others. My issues with the Wii U are that it does seem to be repeating the same mistakes, but that there are people who attack those for not supporting it. .

Not at all, it looks like a non-starter for me. I won't be participating in another casual cash grab that's for damn sure.

the only ppl that are fine with it are the same ppl that kept spamming *graphics dont matter* during the whole gen of Wii and are ready to spam the same thing for the next 5-7 years. Those that are *very* happy about what we ve heard arent gamers...

It's not out yet so I can't judge until I use it and see what the games are like after a year.

The WiiU thus far represents the first time since 5th gen that I'm not at all interested in one of the big console releases.

Huh? I generally wait a six months to a year before I judge a platform. No platform is ever good off the bat.
