Yeah, the PS3 is a better system than the WiiU, that's not what anyone has ever been talking about you fucing moron. Because the PS4 isn't backwards compatible. So PS3 games have nothing to do with a comparison of the WiiU and the PS4.

A console's future-proofing is also part of its worth. The Wii U is a bad console because it has none. It has no third party output, very little in the way of upcoming games, and both the PS4 and X-Box One will have a larger and more varied selection of games before the year is out. They may not be exclusive but they also are, with rare exceptions, not appearing on the Wii U either.

The Wii U's strength is a good selection of Nintendo exclusives which are completely worth playing but do not actually bolster the system's sales worth. In terms of being a second console for someone who owns either a next-gen console or a gaming PC, it isn't a bad investment, but the system isn't priced competitively enough for that.

Yes, if you look at people desperate to spin it for Nintendo. If not, most are saying their conference was the same goddamn poo poo, but this time while ripping off others hand over fist, and desperatly buying up the utter dregs of titles killed off last gen as a last ditch effort to say "SEE?

For fucks sake, the big highlight that every fan talks about from Nintendos E3 is a game that would be put in the indie trailer reel for either of the other consoles.

I posted a list last page of the games coming to the PS4 in October alone. v:shobon:v

There isn't a ton of stuff that is exclusive to the PS4 but there is a ton of stuff that is coming to the PS4 and other systems but not the Wii U.

Quite a few of those have a fair bit of potential. Also if that is the argument you're making than the Wii U's list looks even worse.

I mean I'm looking forward to Smash Brothers but "new, memorable experience" is not what I'd say about that. Neither is Bayonetta 2 (also gonna buy, also is seriously straight-up More Bayonetta) or Captain Toad (the minigame from 3D World expanded into a full game), Hyrule Warriors (Dynasty Warriors), Yarn Yoshi (plays very much like Yoshi's Island with some Kirby's Epic Yarn mechanics). None of those are bad games from what I've played of them but they're not reinventing the wheel in any particular way.

This would be a lot less hilarious of the next big Wii U game wasn't literally a Dynasty Warriors game.

If Nintendo was putting out games at the rate of one really distinctive, interesting and unique experience once every three months, they'd probably be in better shape than they are now. The next big title they're putting out is seriously straight-up the kind of game that is coming regularly to every console but with Zelda taped to it. It's not even like you can argue they'll put their own spin on it because it is literally the same guys making the game as the rest of the Dynasty Warriors games. It'll probably be a fine Dynasty Warriors game but come on.

Which is literally the reason I bought a Wii U and I'm looking forward as hell to, but is like the one thing the system has going for it for it until they announce an actual release date for Smash. I'm also not foolish enough to think Hair Stripper With Guns 2: This Time She Has A Robot is going to sell many more copies that Wonderful 101 did or that it is a blip on the radar for anything but an extremely niche crowd.

Your Stupid Bitches gang tag is incredibly accurate. There are fanbases for almost all of the games on that list and, judging by the amount of talk Watch Dogs for Wii U was getting prior to its wet fart release on other consoles, the Wii U audience would have been quite happy to get a game like Drive Club or AC: Unity. Even those sports games have loyal audiences that just are not served at all by the Wii U.

WWE 2K15 (PS3, PS4, XBox 360, XBox One)

and probably other stuff to be announced.

And I added the systems to that list of games as well. The only exclusive of that whole list is Drive Club. 9 of those games are going to be available for the PS3 as well, 8 for the PC, 11 for the XBox One, and 2 for the Wii and Wii U.

Not saying the PS4 doesn't have good games coming out for it, but they did not show me a reason at E3 to pick a PS4 this year over the XBO, PC, or even to upgrade from my PS3 since so many games are available for it.

For real though, Nintendo's E3 was their best in years and destroyed both Sony's and MS's because their digital event was entertaining and the Treehouse demoing catered to the 21st century by streaming online the whole time they did it. That, and they catered to fans by holding a Smash Bros tournament which supposedly garnered a massive number of views compared to other E3 streams. It was kinda surreal since you'd expect something like this to come out of Sony or MS.

Well, I could point out you're comparing the peak results of the Dreamcasts established hardware versus the new hardware of the Ps2, but I was talking more in terms of gameplay. The Ps2 was when games made the true transition from an attempted emulation of the console experience to a more fully realised idea of console games as an experience meant not just to amuse, but to really sink ones teeth into. Lets compare the way the two consoles approached puzzle games. The Dreamcast gives us Chu Chu Rocket - colourful, simple, cartoony. Gaming equivalent of candy. The Ps2 gives us Ico. Artistic, hauntingly beautiful, impactful in the way no game before it could have been. Gamings ambrosia.
