@Stinger_editor You may be right about them wanting to push hardware sales, but the intelligent buyer would just pick up a 16GB USB thumb drive for $15 and call it a day. The 360s HDDs have never been a good value and it's almost more practical to buy a new XBOX, take the HDD, and then sell the rest than it to buy a HDD standalone.
@Zignoff Personally, I'd love to see more imported games. But it's not just shipping, it's things like translations and marketing and a bunch of other small things that Eastern publishers aren't willing to invest in, and I don't blame them.
@Jarten When they say they don't want anybody left behind they mean during the game experience. Meaning if a game actually does come to the states it's spoon fed. The reason they don't release a majority of their games here is because they won't sell, so it's not worth it to the publisher to bring it over here.
@gsmook I don't know, from this article it sounds like it may not have better hardware than the PS3 or 360, and if that is the case it may not even be able to take advantage of things like Unreal Engine 4 or the Luminous Engine from Square Enix, things that will undoubtedly play a HUGE roll in the lifetime of the Next XBOX and PS4. I'm very disappointed at what Nintendo has showcased so far and still think they're just playing catch up at this point.
