Basic Next Gen Console Rundown

[Jim 2,990]

Wait is something bad about transferring your old 3DS data to the New 3DS XL because I am going to do that tomorrow...

Not "bad" per se, but it is incredibly overly complicated. 

[Shulk 8,623]

Can we please stop calling these systems "next-gen?" They've been out for ages, they're current gen by now.

 

 

When will people start calling the "next gen" consoles current gen? I mean PS4 and XB1 have been around for over a year now.

Don't forget the Wii U.

Respect +1%Although, as of late, that's basically a lot of Hatok postings. I'm not saying he is ignorant, but he dose take things at face value and then posts about it. And always posts extreme pessimism In threads on new releases coming.I.E., one from somewhat recent memory was the Xenoblade X thread after a small showing of the starting plot outline. We know very little about how the game is going to be, but he had began to more or less say he had no hope in the story at all and sort of ruin the mood of "more news!".

Oooooh. How silly.

I know what you mean. It's getting a tad out of hand.

What can we do to stop this person from not being excited about the same things as me!? He's OUT OF CONTROL!

Most gamers already have at least for this gen. But Nintendo still does good with handhelds.

Says the person who backed the PS2 which is the worlds most popular console. Yeah, popular means nothing.

Can we not fight over this?

Not saying you can't have a different opinion, but it is a bother when someone is posting negative feelings for something in a thread about news and thoughts on the game after getting new news. When I heard KH was having the ride-based attacks, I honestly thought it was the stupidest thing I had seen in a long time, however I didn't voice my opinion on a thread for general enjoyment/excitement of the new feature. There are people who were/are excited for that option, but I am not, but I also do not see a need to voice my negatively as it is just that, negativity and upsets others. My opinions are no better than another person's and as such I find it polite to not drag others down who have diffrent opinions to mine.Maybe I'm crazy, since I don't want to spout hate or for others to spout hate, but I'm fine with that.

We go from defending consoles to bashing them...The Wii U is a great system with a ton of fans. It hasn't been forgotten by most gamers.

I like how person going on about keeping things to themselves for the sake of people's feelings takes this much time to tell a person they can't feel a certain way

It's not a sin to feel negative emotions. Better to have a wide variety of opinions ranging from the fanboyest of fanboys to the hatest of the haters than to browbeat people into only saying nice things out of some bizarre respect for a person worshiping a product

Here's the thing.

If a person not liking something interferes with you liking something... maybe you should assess whether or not you REALLY like that thing, or are just trying to make yourself like it.

Now let's do what the Shana says and NOT fight about this

The Wii U is a great system to certain kinds of people (such as me) but there's no denying that it's an afterthought to most people. There's a reason the Wii U is often casually left out of discussions about next gen consoles

See there ya go. I'm not bashing Wii U, but you'd be lying if you said it's sales weren't terrible.

Sorry dude, but truthfully it doesn't have a ton of friends.

Kinda implies their new consoles suck.

 

Also, at least 10M Wii Us have been sold to date. There are clearly a lot of fans. Besides, sales don't equal quality.

and if they do suck?

you're acting like the quality of a console is objective.

One man's trash, and all that

Even if they think the console garbage (and it doesn't seem like soravids does, you're basing this on "implications" so you're really just distorting things to get the answer you want) why does it matter? Why can't you get by knowing someone doesn't like the Wii U as much as you and some of the 9 million people who bought one?

I never said he needs soravids needs to like it, you're distorting what I say at this point. He said that most people have forgotten the Wii U, and I was proving that it's not forgotten. Simple as that.

a few sales isn't the same as public conscious

[Shulk 8,623]

I didn't say everybody loves the Wii U. I was pointing out that it does have fans. Plenty of them. I don't see why you need to get on my case for a simple statement.

EVERYTHING has fans, there's not point in stating when something does

[Shulk 8,623]

Except the earlier statement suggested that most gamers don't care about the Wii U. I was pointing out that was false. I never even started the debate, anyway, so I don't see why I'm the one getting jumped on here.

My personal opinion of the console is of no importance. Do you want me to lie and say "Oh Wii U is the best selling console in the world!! Yay!!"? I never implied the new consoles were garbage by any stretch. Simply stated the fact that the Wii U's sales are nothing special regardless of anybody's opinion.

Alternatively, you could buy a PS2. Lots of great games. All super cheap

I wish that were the case for all of them. Stuff like the .hack games and obscure horror games like Rule of Rose can go for over $80 on ebay used because they got a first print of like 5 copies, and they'll probably be reprinted or digitally released the day the PS4 actually has games.
