Quality of the software library stopped being a factor in how a system sales some time ago. Last gen, Nintendo was on the positive end of that reality. Nintendo's piss poor marketing and branding of this new system took any hype it could have had away, and it's been promptly ignored ever since. I get that they wanted to capitalize on the Wii's popularity by keeping that in the name, but the hype around Wii had taken a shit and died well before Wii U came out, when the bulk of the casual crowd that caused that aberration found some other shiny thing to stare at.

Leaving Nintendo to try to appeal to a jaded core audience they had just kicked to the curb a few years ago (who thinks Wii U is a poorly supported grossly overpriced underpowered console with a lame gimmick), and a few left over casuals. (who thought Wii U was a grossly overpriced tablet add-on for the Wii system they had collecting dust at home that still had their copy of Wii Sports, Mario Kart Wii, or Carnival Games in it) Sony had a similar fall from grace from PS2 to PS3, but they salvaged it quite well. Nintendo on the other hand is going to cut and run and rush out new hardware.

I mean why not? Worked so well for Sega.

Probably still going to be playing Bloodborne, and no doubt occasionally still trolling around Dark Souls 2: SotfS making noobies lives hell with Chameleon/Crystal Soul Spear while they rage impotently as the last they see before the screen fades is me whipping out a trident and doing a goofy dance on the spot they died. (or spinning in circles throwing down "I'm sorry" carvings)

I look forward to the hate mail. :) It's like winning twice.

Sometime later I'll youtube the cutscenes from Halo 5 and yeah… that'll do it for me. It's just another FPS, after all.

Mind calling out a particular person on that? "You gamer dudes" is a pretty broad group of people, one you appear to be a part of yourself. Personally I find execution more important than originality. Not even gonna touch on the absurdity of judging how original the game is based on watching someone else play a bit of it on a stream, I sincerely doubt you have much experience with Dark Souls, either, if you believe Bloodborne looks to play like a reskinned version of it.

I would settle for nothing less than 50 million for that amount of time, and for the prosecution of any still living officers involved in that sham.

Because it is believed to be the "number of the beast", though that came into contention in 2005, and the number of the beast may actually be 616.

Best game of 2010.

It'll come to PC when Demon's Souls does.

*sigh* Wish they could have made that PS4 list a little less not small and awful.

Old matches, NXT, ROH, etc. Plenty of good wrestling out there. WWE is the biggest product, but it's not all their is. But it is depressing how shockingly bad WWE (main rosters) has become. Reading about them screwing up the Rumble for the second year in a row, and not having the common sense to change course before it's too late like they did last year… ugh. I really hope Seth Rollins cashes in the night after on Raw, I'd much prefer he not win at all, but Vince has a rock solid hard on for Reigns.

I agree. Their should definitely be laws on the books that make legislators financially liable for passing legislation that they know in advance is unconstitutional and will be thrown out. I get that they want to be able to point out what they did and thump their chests about how strongly they tried to defend the "sanctity of marriage" (ignoring the inevitability of a good chunk of it's supporters being divorced themselves) but the cost of drafting it, passing it, and then throwing it out are on the taxpayers right now. That should change.
