The Wii U. Just shows how little imagination Sony and Microsoft have.

I think it's great, won't be getting one though, just looks cool some of the stuff you can do.

With the video calling, i'm sure that is something m$ wanted to do first, especially now that have bought Skype, will be on the xbox soon.

Sony could do the same i suppose with their new PSP, but they will be working more on security than anything i would have thought.

you can pretty much bet that M$ will introduce skype into the dashboard sometime soon. Should be a great addition. i use skype over all other messengers due to security, its fully encrypted unlike others.

To me this new Wii looks like one huge headache and a constant money pit (batteries). Kids are the biggest Wii users so why the hell would you want a thin flat video game system that you lay on the floor for the 5 year old to stomp? Also it appears the screen acts as a sensor so what happens when it gets dirty or to much pressure applied from drawing etc.

I think the biggest question though is did Nintendo leave the door wide open with a huge sign that says mod me like they did with Wii?

The battery drain would be the biggest problem i thought.

Being a tablet and quite large in size, i would have thought it was for older kids. From the vid it seems you can still use the wiimote and accessories, the kids can use them.

I just think its great how they are combining devices and are showing what is possible, even though it will cost alot. M$ are lucky to have kinect, almost lost out to Apple, but its not like that was even their idea or creation (like most things Laughing).
Kinect has been out for eight months and they are only now starting to use it in games. Making a baby tiger roll over and jump at the screen isn't exactly mind blowing.

I think that's awesome... just another great idea from Nintendo...

Looks like the only Sony can do better that MS and Nintendo is getting constantly hacked. Laughing

Looks like we are getting the same shit line up of games but they have added what i will guess is a really over priced controller in order to complicate what is other wise a simple kids game.

Well baby brother and sister grab grandma and get ready for one more over priced short life toy from ninten-turd. Rolling Eyes
