I don't care how much of a trainwreck it'll be, I'm legit hyped for Devil's Third

It looks like what I wanted Gunz to be

Nobody at Microsoft can remember if they live in Renton or Redmond and it doesn't matter because they're stuck in traffic outside Olympia.

Four years ago the entire company got into an argument about how to pronounce Mario and it's gotten really divisive.

Microsoft ran out of numbers to call them.

Well so far we have:
Xbox
Xbox 360
Xbox One

See the pattern is add 360 or subtract 359 from the last generation with alternating releases. Up next is:
Xbox 361
Xbox Two
Xbox 362
Xbox Three
Etc

There was chatter about them doing that last time and look how much stupider their real plan turned out to be.

I bet they're calling the next one the 3DO

loving basic mathematics and observation? MS and Sony pretty obviously sent each other "let's both make profit on the boxes from day 1" smoke signals, resulting in them both putting out weaker-than-expected consoles with roughly comparable abilities. Doing that makes another eight year console cycle pretty loving unlikely, but neither company really has any nostalgia for 2005-2007 anyway. Devs hit the performance ceiling on this gen in record loving time thanks to familiar architecture, so five years is probably gonna be it.

xbox isnt profitable yet and wont be for a while due to combination of deep price cuts and using expensive esram + DDR3 which isnt going to come down drastically.

both consoles are about the same amount of power increase as previous gens were, most every gen is weaker than top end pc hardware at release anyway, nothing is different. the only reason the ps3 was expensive was due to nonsense hardware choices rather than an over abundance of power.

ps4 is significantly more powerful and already profitable, no one has hit a performance ceiling anywhere what r u on about.

The only game companies I really give a crap about is like Atlus, Xseed, and Square Enix.

The Playstation has almost a deathgrip on all three and it won't matter what the NX has inside of it. If the system has no waifus it is another system that is dead on arrival.


Also seriously Devil's Third looks like crap. The newer God of War game looks better than that and that was just blah.

My partner and I just got a Wii U and I'd like to transfer my Wii data to it, but I remember having to fiddle with something in my Wii to play Project M. I think I used the SD card version rather than jailbreaking the whole thing, but would there be any problems transferring system data to the Wii U either way, or does the data that gets transferred nowhere near what Project M touches?
