No, it will not.

So Nintendo either has given up that race or is planning on a more powerful console for 2014

Nintendo is gay anyway. They should stop making systems, and just license the Mario franchise to the other consoles. Nobody gives a shit about Nintendo anymore. They should be like the Beatles and sell the catalogue

Not really, what I'm saying is that the Wii U has indications of being a dud, and will not have an impact like the Wii.

This thread is not galienko or groink approved.


...not a single pic of Tu in this thread!

Does this make it approved now?

This was actually taken out in front of The Shrine Auditorium at the E3 Press Event, but they moved it Monday night to the Convention West Hall entrance.

I stopped going when they banned booth babes.  Fucking nerds.

Yeah. It simply doesn't seem like a new generation from what the Wii was.

Btw Shitso didn't the Wii outsell Sony and Xbox by a wide margain?

E3-Summary

[tu_holmes]

Amazing thread and thanks for the pics!!

I will buy both systems like usual but will get non-exclusive games for PS4 since I am a gamefly member and don't buy games. I'll just buy exclusives for the Xbox One. I am really fucking excited for November when these systems come out (assuming PS4 comes out then too)

It will be November. Sony will not miss the holiday season.

The Wii sold about 100 million consoles. Both Microsoft and Sony sold about 78 Million each.

[tu_holmes]

  Congrats Tu

thank you sir.

Yes but the wii has no games.

[tu_holmes]

Yes but the wii has no games.

Nintendo only needs to sell their first party games and people will buy it.

I don't know why, but if you make a Zelda, Metroid, Mario, some Luigi thing, and a Super Smash Brothers. The console will end up selling.

Wait until the new Mario hits the Wii U. It's sales will pick up. And no. I don't understand it either.

[GigantorX]

Best is very relative to be honest.

For me, I like the PS4... But I'm looking at cost, what I use it for, what I want my console to do/have etc.

I look at the whole picture.

If you're talking raw power... Then it's so damn close you can't tell the difference... The PS4 is "slightly" more powerful, but that doesn't always mean anything. The Xbox is basically a Virtual Box running a windows 8 kernel and a proprietary OS that will allow for a second App to run in a window while playing a game. The Windows OS allows for Devs to easily work on a PC... do their thing and then port it to the Xbox One with very little issue. It really allows Devs to focus on some things that they otherwise couldn't because of taking the time to get the port working. It really does save on Dev costs as well... You don't have to buy a bunch of Xbox Durango Dev kits.

These time wastes can all factor into the game look and feel. Part of why "exclusives" are usually so good is because they only have to focus on the single platform... There's not time wasted on porting and multiplatform development.

I feel the PS4 is the way to go personally, but that's just me.

It's running a VM, does this mean that if MS keeps the x86 architecture going forward we can have backwards compatibility for new consoles in the future?

nostalgia?

Actually. If they maintain the virtual machine portion it doesn't matter what the architecture is. If you can emulate an old machine it doesn't really matter what the underlying hardware truly is.

Then again. That's what they have to build. Different VMs for different console models.

[Papper]

nostalgia?

Maybe.

Maybe courage to stand out and put gaming feel at it's core in front of specs and visuals and a keen understanding of what todays kids and grown up kids want?

And a cheaper price tag right.
