@ahpuck Yeah... after seeing all the "xbox is better" comments I'm inclined to agree... Even though I do think a lot of nintendo games have amazing art styles for what their consoles can produce graphics wise at the moment. But I guess the article is about the fan base at large.

Honestly I like having the option to use the backwards compatibility but I only use it once in a while... so i don't see why it is such a big deal to have it. I do look forward to the Wii U. I haven't held the tablet controller before but it looks like it has all the same buttons as all the other major consoles. So it can play games without motion controls just fine.
