Was it another monitor, or did you unplug the video card and use the same monitor with the builtin graphics, or both?

Both. Figured out it was an issue of being unable to use the old rear end input from the old monitor with the video card, so I went out just now and got a new monitor, and it works.

I'm not disputing that the Wii U is objectively the most fun system when backwards compatibility is taken into account

The only PSP games i tried to run (Tactics Ogre: LUCT and FF Tactics) ran like poo poo, so I don't think my phone likes PSPPP.

FF Tactics ran like poo poo even on the PSP.
Seriously that poo poo was inexcusable.

Which is a shame since it's a great remaster of one of the best games of all time. Besides all the slowdown, of course.

Especially if you play DKC Tropical Freeze. Best game on the Wii U ever.

I found a patch to apply the translation to the PSX version, and a translated version of LUCT, so it's cool.

If you look for FactsAreUseless on steam there's two results, one of them is me.

Edit: they're both me but one is inactive.

Edit 2: I'm basically never on anyway.

I really appreciate the responses, folks. Here's my takeaway.

So I'm definitely going to get a Wii U eventually for the standard Nintendo exclusives but right now I still think I'm going with a PS since I'm interested in the 2K games, MLB The Show, and some third party games I never played. At least after I take a trip to GameStop and make sure they still have a solid used collection I can shop from.

I see GameStop.com selling a refurbished 40 GB PS3 with Splinter Cell Blacklist, Prototype 2, God of War: Ascension, Dead Island Riptide, and Yulba: Ninja Gaiden Z for $160 and this looks like a good purchase to me. Ascension is one of the key games I had in mind and the other ones seem like the sort of games I'd blow a weekend on even if they're not great. Is 40 GB enough space to start without worrying about adding a hard drive?

isn't 40gb one of the old fat ps3s? i'd avoid buying that tbh, especially if it's refurbished, because it'll probably die on you within a few months of buying it. if you buy a ps3 get one of the slim models, i doubt it will cost much more and they're really reliable. i think the gamestop website calls them "slimline" and "super slim" and either of those would be a better choice

Imp Zone.

I've played some pretty badass rounds of fun games with people I've met there. The CTS regulars I've played with are also pretty cool; I had fun with Sykic (sp?) In Far Cry 4 and have had some good Payday 2 runs as well with people.

Once I recover from Drinkfist's sheer virility scaring me off of mumble after I said like a few words I'll be on too.

What are you interested in playing? Add me on steam.

Oh no I skipped the hell out on that. I liked the shooting part of the game and the times I played with friends were super fun. But Destiny is mad boring now because I don't have PS+ at all.

I can't comment on FF14 (honestly I haven't enjoyed most FFs past 9), but Shadow of Mordor is excellent.

Shadow of Mordor along with shovel knight are two of the best games I have played in a long while.
