The demo was Rayman and I really wasn't feeling the controls. I don't know guys, going by my impression, I think you should cancel your preorders.

I remember trying the PS3, 360 and Wii before their launches - wasn't impressed.

But I sure enjoyed them all in the long run.

What are you guys expecting from a Kiosk with a game demo? To be blown away? lol

A console is only as good as its library. Its something that happens over time.

I did the same a few days ago, but generally I liked the flexibility of the control inputs but the biggest impression I gleaned from my hands-on was how bulky the controller was and how uncomfortable it was to hold. I can't imagine that supplanting the traditional gamepad for most developers, but I am keeping an open mind. I played Rayman, which was fine, but felt incredibly similar to Legends and didn't feel like it was much to go by.

After that, I tried to go back to the home menu but the thing froze up and the reset button even wouldn't do anything. Ha.

So people should call off their pre-orders because YOU weren't impressed? Not everyone is going to have the same thoughts, you know. :|

I think you're a terrible person, TC -- your not "feeling" the controls and thinking that I should go "by (your) impression" and "cancel (my hypothetical) preorders."

"I don't know guys."No you don't TC. You don't even... you monster.

The only thing im dissapoitned by is their choice of game. Rayman is cool and all but it doesnt showcase the system, I mean Vita can play that game and look that good (see Origins, gorgeous).

I'm hacking into the mainframe and cancelling ALL preorders. I know it seems like an extreme measure, but Percech would never lead us astray.

No, I'm just proving a point. He isnt going to get banned and neither am I. I barely know you, this crap thread could be a fluke, or you could really be a moron who thinks people are going to trust his opinion to make a fairly important decision on a forum known for being troll infested.

This is the problem with you, if you think I really thought he was getting banned for what he said...or that I even reported him, you're the real moron because you put so much effort to prove absolutely nothing. At least the other guy caught on, you on the other hand need to get out more.

I'm sorry, your impressions are abysmal. I could care less if your views are pro Wii-U or not..but there is no substance. It would fit better in a blog that no one is going to read.
