Wii U should have price on it's side by then - but it's already an old system... I just see the Wii U as this generations GC or N64 - Still do well enough for them mind you, and provide us with more Mario and Zelda - which is all we want anyway...

Price, DRM aside I think the Xbone and PS4 will do very well...

The thing is with Wii U i pretty much expect despite the slow start it will still make Nintendo a reasonable profit once the big games start coming out. And if this does indeed turn out to be this generations GC/N64 is that such a bad thing? there were some truly brilliant games on those systems.

Oooook.... Killer Instinct is by Double Helix....

I enjoyed Silent Hill: Homecoming but the other stuff they've done doesn't exactly fill me with excitement.... I hope they do it Justice...

Oh.

The particle effects when Jago's fireball connects with Sabrewulf was

Can't wait to see B.Orchid, Maya, Kim Wu, Fulgore etc.

Not at all, it's the perfect side dish to a plate of PS4/PC/Xbone

$499 will translate to ?499 add one ?60 bluray based single use game licence and a Xbox live sub and your looking at ?600 just to get started, fook that.

Wiiu is game cube all over again. Still got my gamecube. Great console with some great games. I'll get a wiiu in time for sure. I won't be getting an xbone. Question is, will I be getting a ps4? I'll know in about 7 hours probably.

[Decider-VT]

Underwhelmed and somewhat surprised that they thought that Space COD and Halo are going to be sufficient damage limitation after the DRM debacle. Sadly, they probably will be knowing how most mass market gamers behave.

[elaniel]

Can you imagine if Sony launch under ?350?

[Dogg Thang]

Did they tackle the DRM/license issues at all? I didn't watch it...

No...

Killer Instinct. Quite liked the first game but it was just about above average. Have people mysteriously forgotten that?

They announced it was ?429

[teddymeow]

Maybe Sony will do what they did with the Saturn before the first PlayStation was released.

Stood up and said "$299" and the rest is history.

Could they go to $349?
