I wish I could buy the Wii U. I can't even afford the current Wii. All I have right now are a bunch of old NES games.

None of the games shown at E3 really make the system a day-1 purchase for me. Pikmin 3 is awesome. However, I don't really need another mini game collection (NintendoLand), WiiFit is basically just a scale at this point. I can do better calorie tracking on my iPhone, which is more convenient anyways, and it's not that great a workout program. I still haven't played NSMBWii, and I can always get my 2D Mario fix with NSMB2 on 3DS, so I'm in no rush for NSMBU. With no teasers for post-launch must haves, I'm afraid that one game is not enough.

The rest of the games, except for ZombiU can all be played on Playstation 3, and it's not like I can't rustle up another good Zombie game.

With smart glass on Xbox allowing you to do everything the WiiU tablet can do with the tablet you already own - this system is going to have to be cheap to be competitive. Sony's also making Vita compatible with PS3 games and expanding into the mobile sector. I imagine it won't be long before they have "smart glass" functionality with Android tablets. WiiU's will be a smoother experience, since the hardware is designed to work together, but the WiiU tablet is limited to the WiiU.

Besides Pikmin 3 there was nothing on show today that made me want to get a WiiU. One game is not enough. i'm sure for the people that only own a Wii then the Third party stuff may have some appeal, but most of those are games I can play right now on ma 360. I've no interest in NSMB games,fitness/dancing games or mini games so I really can't justify buying one at launch. Now if they would have shown F-Zero, WaveRace, 1080° or Starfox then I'd have been on it like a car bonnet but no sale at the moment for me.

What's this bit for again?

Absolutely after the presentation. There are 5 games I already want for the system.

I really want to get my hands on the system and try out Nintendo Land. Looks like they are really pushing local play like they did with Wii and the good ol' days of N64 and Gamecube- something lots of people take for granted.

Yes I will. Despite the fact that e3 was terrible, the Wii U will still have one of the best launch line ups I've ever seen. Nintendo just presented it awfully.

At this rate, no way. All the interesting games are ones I can already play on PS3.

Getting Mario at Launch (if I have enough money). I don't know when Pikmin is out. If I can I will get a Pro controller too.

Launch Window it says. So, probably a month after. Pikmin came out a month after Gamecube was released I believe. Sounds like it'll be a similar case.

Pikmin 3 isn't selling me... I'm waiting till the end of e3 to make my decision.

Yeah, I will be buying a Wii U but I am less excited now than I was yesterday. I don't care about Pikmin and another Super Mario Bros? yawn... I hope to see something more my flavor soon.

The dancing and singing game are just ridiculous. If I wanted to do that shiz, I would go to the club or a Karaoke bar.

I'm going to wait until the end of e3 to answer. They could still announce better things. And if nothing else, I'm sure they'll announce better games throughout this year, and especially next year's e3.

Just let it happen.

I guess you could say I'm more interested in human-like physics, more variety in enemy animations and better interaction with their surroundings for types of games like Resident Evil and Silent Hill etc etc. the in-game enemy physics/animations were no different in RE5 than they were in RE4 outside maybe a couple of boss battles.

Animation has always been something I wanted to see improved. Make things not look like it has a pattern.

Maybe you two will get your animation wish with Resident Evil 7 if Capcom uses full integration of Natural Motion’s Euphoria Character Behavior system for lifelike movement the same way Max Payne 3 does.

Besides Pikmin 3 and Zombie U (which looks to be one of the most horrifying games ever created), I can't think of a reason to buy the system. Plus, all other games that look cool are games I already own or can buy on a system I already own.

All there is for me at this point is Pikmin 3 and Game and Wario. But I'll still get it, yes.
