@CraszyAsce are you kidding me? It will just be a porting console. Third party devs will go for 360 and ps3 first since that's where the install base is then port to the wii u. What can it offer hardcore gamers that we aren't already getting? HD mario and zelda? I love those first party games from my childhood as much as anyonne but come on....
I already have current gen consoles. I don't need another and the prospect of another wii isn't something that interests me. I think I'm done with nintendo. Now if nintendo let's me send them my current wii and $100 then they send me the Wii U I would probably do it. That aside, why the heck would someone want this? I'm sure it won't have a hard drive and the 36p already had a 4GB kinect console for 199.99 last Christmas season. How much will it be Christmas 2012? I sure hope Nintendo is priced to compete because theyre fooling themselves if they think this will be a repeat of 2006.
The demo was a lot of fun and unlocked mass effect 3 dlc. This generation has had so many more good WRPG's than previous ones. Jrpgs were pretty much a garbage fest with the exception of tales of vesperia and lost odyssey.
PSN prices really suck. The first thing that comes to mind is the Renegade Ops Christmas sale. Regular price is $15. PSN holiday sale price was $12 and the PS+ price was $9. The xbla holiday price for both gold and silver members was $7.50.
I got episode 1of monkey island free on ipad and episodes 4 and 5 free on Wii months ago. Even at $3 each, that makes the complete monkey island $6 which is still too much considering I got the gears tripple pack for $8 from best buy on black Friday.
Many games are inappropriate for children but you know something is wrong when a game actually makes you feel ASHAMED to play it in front of your daughter.
