But this isn't the Wii U thread. :confused:

I should probably make a new one, considering the mods aren't unlocking the last one. Guess I'll have to ask first, though.

FAU said it was just taking a break.

Really? to me it looks big enough. Like bigger then my hand and pretty aerodynamically shaped for smooth movement through the air.

Sony's going to become a lowrent VR box. Microsoft is going to shift to PCs.

Nintendo will be the last console... before packing it in to become an IP farm.

So... because VR exists the Playstation will just stop having normal TV games?

I mean it could happen some year I guess, but if it does it'll be because VR became really good and everyone preferred it. I wouldn't see that as a bad thing unless you can't use it.

I also don't think VR will ever be that good in my lifetime but I also didn't think I would be holding a tablet like the people on Star Trek did when I was a kid so gently caress if I know

Actually, joking aside it seems like Sony's initial VR offerings may be Normal TV Games, but with the TV being on your face.

Are you a BigMac of imbeciles!?
If it's true that the controller will have a way to simulate elevated "bumps" for the on-screen buttons, that's a really goddamn cool idea and I could get behind something like that. I'd definitely prefer having real buttons, but that's a cool concept I could support. I loving hate touch-screen buttons though, and if that's all the controller is, I'm completely uninterested.

I don't care what the controller looks like. I thought the 3DS and Wii U gamepad would be dumb before I owned them. Nintendo rules.

If that controller is the real NX controller, Nintendo is hosed. Could you imagine the constant fingerprints all over that thing?

The poo poo Microsoft tried to pull prior to the Xbone release is what happens when a company thinks they don't have competition. The benefits we have from the PS4 launch is a result of competition. You have no clue what you are talking about.

Edit: Why the gently caress is this website correcting x b o n e into Xbox One?

I'm talking about the here and now, not three years ago around this time when both consoles were announced, which is no longer relevant. I know exactly what I am talking about.
