I think it's already won next gen, but what do I knowcharizard1605

The Wii U has 1 year to convince gamers as to why the system is worth it it.

The Wii U is a massive risk not for only the consumers but for Nintendo as well.

Before you flame me, think about this....

Why should anyone with a PS3 or 360 should buy a Wii U at launch.

The Wii wasn't a great system and people aren't craving for another version for it, it's long forgotten.

Nintendo still hasn't established a legitimate online service like that of PSN, XBL, and Steam.

360/PS3 owners will get the same games as the Wii other than exclusives.

The Wii U at launch has a bunch of games people played and beat months ago like ME3 and Batman.

The Wii U also isn't that cheap, expect MS/Sony to drop the prices of their consoles again in order to counter the Wii U launch.

Exclusives to the PS3/360 (although some of these are specific per console) like Halo 4, The Last of Us, Gears of War judgement, Forza, Dishonered, GTA V, and Dead or Alive 5 will be keep owners of these consoles satisfied for awhile to come.

I fail to see why anyone who is in the current gen as in PS3/360 should buy a Wii U especially since the PS4/Xbox 3 will be coming soon with very powerful hardware.

There is a risk of the Wii U ending up like the Wii (no 3rd party support) once PS4/Xbox 3 come out.

Nintendo literally has 1 year to prove to gamers that their console is worth it otherwise it will flop harder than the Gamecube (which wasn't a bad system) in sales.

The casuals are gone and they actually need to deliver this time, their company (Nintendo) is on the line here.

I dont even know why you play video games.

Just for the record, how many MMOs have you tried?

Isn't Guild Wars 2 supposed to be incredibly good?charizard1605

MMOs are really just time sinks that involve spending a ton of time to get somewhere (carrot on a stick)

Most MMO games are the same, chain quest, the combat, leveling and everything else.

WoW really was a one time thing for the genre since no other MMO has even come close to it's success, SWTOR flopped.

MMOs are for gamers who want to live another life, but in a video game.

If you are not into having an alter-life, they you need not look at MMORPGs.

They are a waste of time, go outside or play other games that don't have massive grinds.

consoles are crippled computers, you can't even debate that.

I don't know why people hate TC so much. I agree with most of his threads and think he makes good points, sure not all of them are corret but still his threads are pretty spot on for the most part.

It's good to see someone else on here who is as informed as I am for a change.

So... My PC games still look better, perform better, are cheaper, modable, larger scale, more feature rich, etc... than console games. As for mouse and keyboard, it is better for shooters, RTS, RPGs and others because the mouse is faster and more accurate than anolog sticks and the keyboard has a ton more keys to fully customize the user's experience. Also, if you don't like m&kb, then use any device you want. The PC experience offers more customization in all aspects. Deal with it dude. Enjoy your console if you want, I have a PS3 and Wii for their exclusives, but they just are not better than PCs for gaming.

*EDIT* Zlychop, please.... please respond to this with a legit response. No opinions, no Halo/Gears/Forza is better than *insert PC exclusive* because that is subjective. Please just tell me something that your 360 can do in terms of gaming that my PC cannot do.
