I agree you think they would learn by now that E3 is only watched by gamers and yet we see dancing games, fitness games, and reading games.
Oh yeah I also forgot about Aliens: Colonial Marines. That game looked good too and the developer has been praising the Wii U before E3 saying that it's the best version.

Thanks to all who covered it in detail. I was either sleeping during the show or working.  Based on what I've read, I don't think ill be buying another console and probably won't be buying anymore games either. I really needed a convincing reason to do either, but didn't get one. Looks like gaming will be a favorite past-time. -_-

The next-gen console with current-gen graphics
To be fair to Nintendo, you don't know what the other next-gen console's graphics will be like, so it's hard to dismiss the Wii-U's graphics as behind the curve. For all we know, the Xbox720 and Ps4 (presumably) have similar capabilities. Regardless, the Nintendo ish was pretty disappointing. No Smash Bros was crappy. Paper Mario only on 3ds? **** that. Paper Mario 64 is my second favorite game all time, if they would've put the new one on the Wii U, too, I would've been sold f'sho. I'm definitely going for Watch Dogs, new Bops, new Halo, and Elder Scrolls online within the next year. After that, I dunno.

lol turbo, I just posted that pic in the good morning thread  So, I have a question: I saw the wiimote being used in the videos. Does this mean the controllers are backward compatible and we'll still (maybe) get to play shooters like MoH?

I saw.  And I don't know. Maybe. From what we've seen so far, it looks like Wii remotes are just peripherals to the gamepad. Like, the gamepad will be what you use primarily, while the Wii remotes are for other players.

honestly only thing that interests me at all system wise is getting a 3DS. I think once I finally finish up what few wii games I have (which the ps+ update should put on indefinite hold) ill sell that for a 3ds. Though at the same time I also want to wait until they get cheaper. None of the games I'm looking forward to have gotten any new information though (Darksiders II, Resident Evil 6, Dead or ALive 5)

All I know for sure is I'm not buying a huge pile of plastic from nintendo evet again. They got me on so many peripherals last time, I'm not falling for it again. All that **** better be backward compatible.

Well, I think of it as something I might get in addition to my ps3. I dont need a ps4 yet and wouldn't buy one if it came out this year.... most likely. I can't see a reason for better gfx yet cuz they are plenty good enough now for a console system. All that can be improved upon at the moment is input methods, online, and game play. TV's aren't going to get better resolution any time soon. I don't know... I thought it was interesting.
Just to argue it a little bit, the PS4 hasn't even been officially announced yet. You might be good with the PS3 right now, but don't think that the new console is around the corner either. That's easily going to be at the trailing end of NEXT year. Also, there's some good games coming out but IGN asked a bunch of developers which ones had any projects for the current gen after these last ones come oue and non of them did. The next gen is already being worked on and you're going to start seeing less and less content for this gen. Lastly, games are again getting really, really big and too technically complex to be run on current hardware unless you have a PC. Case in point, BF3. Huge, huge game and technically impressive on the PC. The consoles get a rundown version littered with bugs that affect even the most basic functions of any game. I think we'll see the current gen start becoming obsolete soon and for Nintendo to just now catch up to the current gen in terms of horsepower doesn't look too promising in terms of it's longevity. The Wii was a stack of cards that ultimately held. It was stacked high but when you look at the games it had, it was pretty hollow.

Well, honestly, so what. Do we really need massive photo realistic games that are boring and the same as every other game? I already got bored with bf3. I played mohh2 forever. It comes down to how fun the games are, not how technically amazing the development was. Nintendo seems to understand that beyer than the others honestly. Now with the gfx being up to snuff, developers won't ignore nintendo anymore. I think ninty will make money with this thing. I dont think it will sell the way the wii did, buy it will do well.
I'm not too concerned with future ps3 titles anyway. I dont get to play much anymore and honestly, I could ps3 gt5 for a few more years alone. I played till 6am saturday night, 3am last night and want to leave work to play right now. Plus, there are dozens of games I would like to play that I haven't been able to yet.
Btw turd, you want my wheel or what? No one seemed interested in my contest to win it and I wanna head down to texas on a road trip soon anyway.

honestly i think MOH: Warfigher looks like a decent mix between Heroes and 2010 MOH. Yeah it's not simplistic at all, there's a ton of **** happening. But it did seemed like you can hipfire from a distance, which will return all the stafing mind games of Heroes. I fyou can sprint during any action then I'm sold, and if all that happens and it's Move compatible, that will sell a Move to me as well. I mean, some of those guys took like 8 bullets to the chest from afar, and they were all hipfired. If that's not Heroes then idk what is. I think EA might have actually listened to us.

I think Nintendo had more problems than their hardware. Their policies toward stuff like M-rated games and their gimped online services are what really hindered them from getting any major recognition as a competitive platform.

I agree Turbo Ninty was way too strict with third party developers and it came back and bit them in the ass.
With Wii U it seems they are now finally working with third party developers again.
