Poll: WiiU vs a Cloud Based PS4... which would you prefer?

So from what we know of WiiU and what we know of thee head of Gakkai confirming PS4 will be cloud based and not an actual console,

which interests you more?

Wii U will have no games I want. There will most likely be a physical PS4 Box to at least stream games with, and if they go that far they may as well have a whole console. highly doubt PS4 will be streamed only. But, I'm definitely not a fan of the Wii U

Wii U, I live in the middle of nowhere. I'm not touching cloud gaming.

I voted Wii U I'm a Nintendo fan and can't go the whole gen without new Nintendo games on Consoles (I tried before but I always end up buying a Nintendo console)

I plan on getting a PS4 (I hope they have it disc based version because I like Sony's IPs and I have owned every Sony home console same with Nintendo home consoles)

But this would be my reaction if it was cloud based

edit* been waiting to use that gif for a couple of days now.

I would prefer your dumbass stop making threads and go sit in a corner. What are you 3 years old? PS4 has not been announced. Why would Sony need to make a PS4 when WiiU's graphics aren't even as good as PS3?

Nobody confirmed PS4 to be cloud-based. You base this on your own conjecture.

Anwyay, Wii-U.

Nanea Reeves, chief product officer for Gaikai cloud gaming service believes that one major console manufacturer wont be creating a next generation device. Industry Gamers seem to believe that Reeves has inside knowledge and that perhaps the console manufacturer will instead create a major cloud gaming partnership with Gaikai instead of creating brand new hardware. Any guesses as to which console manufacturer it will be?

"Not all of the current console makers will have one more generation. That will be the big news at E3."

I wish you would stop spreading this rumour. It isn't even official.

I seriously hope the PS4 won't be cloud-based. That would be suicidal.

Yup, I saw the thread... It was pretty funny :P

Cloud-based is no doubt something Sony could incorporate into the Vita/PS4, or they could use it for improved remote play (pure speculation, but at least I can admit it).

• Old source; it's dated back all the way to January, with speculations of this news being made official at E3 (which didn't happen, BTW).
• It says here that the chief product officer BELIEVESthat either Microsoft or Sony will go into a cloud gaming partnership with them (Perhaps Microsoft is thinking of doing this?).

Sony hasn't confirmed that the next PlayStation will be cloud gaming only, nor have Gaikai for that matter. I know they have made idiotic decisions in the past, but the failing results of the PSP Go should be a latge enough clue that the market isn't ready for this type of console.

The fact that it is old and Sony has now bought Gakai is even further proof that it is true.

True answer, Wii-U + PC and I get to keep my games after the Cloud things fails and they go out of business. Really, my interent connection is horribly unrealiable, I already dislike how I have to always be online for Diablo 3. Plus, our internet companies will prevent Cloud based gaming from ever taking off due to being expensive, un-reliable and capping us on how much data we can use a month. I refuse to get anything cloud based at all.

Doesn't matter whether PS4 is cloud or not. The answer is the same. Next gen for me is Nintendo automatic first choice, the others highly conditional.
