@evil_snuggles Yeah, it's just to bad so many of those "Exclusives" are crap or fluff for the Japanese home market few would want to play.

@freedom01 Ah, such lovely negative spin you have, granma.

@Zachariael @NetGod He can't help it. Seeing the Fable of "The Fox and the Grapes" recapitulated, over and over again, IS a riot!*LOL*

@abHS4L88 What sales pick up?. When they've emptied their current inventory of games and periperals, It will be online sales, only. Wii U=EPIC FAIL. Hanging onto the Wii name, instead of giving the console it's own name and promoting it for it's own merits was a mistake. Half of those "casual" gamers they were so proud of think the Wii U is just an add-on to the original Wii.

@Jeremiah Bautista I remember that E3, when Nintendo yanked the rug out from under Sony in front of everyone. It was ugly, really ugly. I thought the Sony contingent was going to slit their bellies, they seem to take it so HARD. Nintendo was paid back, big time, with the release of Sony's first console. I still remember how silly we thought the name was, then.

@stan_boyd @HAMMERCLAW Absolutely! It's like I told people online, weeks ago. Nothing with Microsoft is set in stone. If a policy doesn't work, they'll change it. Most of the people complaining about Microsoft changing things, weren't going to buy an XBO, whatever.

I detect a distinct feeling of dismay and chagrin from some of these indie developers. I think they're worried about drowning in a sea of competitors, now, with each XBO being a dev kit.

@Cottagepkz @stan_boyd @junglist101 Neither is Sony, considering how they copied Pay-to-Play from Microsoft.

@peacenutman They copy anything successful, that makes money, which, of course, rules out Sony.

Devs, nobody cares. Whenever anyone tries to, they get tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail. you're on your own.
