If you are on the fence as was I until very recently (I only pre ordered mine 11 days ago) I'd get yourself an affordable 360. Until you decide on Wii U.

The 360 is a fantastic system

@WanderingPB
Break up your post. My eyes!

@Raiko
Forgive me, but you appear to be from the UK as am I and as such we don't currently have the Wii U.
Unless you have played both the Wii U version and either one of the versions found on the rival systems side by side, then how could you know that this is a lie?
If you have played on a Wii U demo stand however, then please continue

Nintendo Presents - New Style Boutique Demo is in the eShop already. Been there since the 1st of November. Or am I wrong?

This is the only thing that makes me worry about Wii U.
It has grunt and innovation in abundance but it's the idea that some AAA developers may see the gamepad as a turnoff that has me thinking about Wii U's 3rd party support. The Pro controller is there for games just like Borderlands etc. Use it

This isn't the Wii. You're not forced to bolt on gimmicky control schemes anymore. Once again, use the damn Pro controller and port it on over.

Use the damn Pro controller.
There is no excuse

The train best come with a ball gag to muffle COD rage.
It's a bit silly but cool nonetheless

Is this really worth it for what appears to be just a virtual fire place?
Blimey, I can look out the window over to Liverpool to catch a glimpse of a fire with no costs involved

I love you really Liverpool.

@0LD_SK0OL_PUNK
Namely the price and what people won't be willing to fork out for.

Are they pulling a Rolfe?

@drunkenmaster76
I don't believe that for a second.

@brooks83
The man contributed to nearly destroying the industry.
You remember that part right?
And the whole part about the NES and customer confidence and the recovery of the industry? Remember?

@Monsti
It's the UK not Britain.
Mel Gibson left some time ago.

His picture looks as if he is thinking "What to stick cheap wood on next...."
Maybe Nintendo should release an Oak Premium Wii U bundle with an 8kb HDD packaged with E.T. Maybe that wouldn't baffle him.

@childofacid
To be fair, he wasn't directly responsible but Atari didn't exactly help the situation.

@Corbs
We also know what Nintendo did and continues to do for video gaming. It's arguably Nintendo that is the biggest reason for most people gaming rather than Atari especially after the mess of '83. Nintendo is, was and will continue to be a lot more relevant, a lot more successful and a lot more popular than Atari is, was and ever will be.

Atari has had it's day and it's time to tuck it in, read it a story and turn off the light. For good.

Everyone has an opinion yes, but I'm sorry. His is utter garbage.
He gave the world Atari yes, but is it time to drop the Godfather moniker?

Break up your posts O_O

The Basic white model seemed to be the one that went first.
Scour the supermarkets for leftovers.

@SMEXIZELDAMAN
Those 3fps that you can't see were that much of a problem huh?

@kyuubikid213
Well Sony won't.
They still live in 1994.

@TrueWiiMaster
We have Netflix but at least for me, it was a complete mess on Wii.

@HarmoKnight
The only other thing worse than HD, 3D or 64 is the word "Super"

I'll probably never use it but it'll be a nice addition to the system

@Prof_Clayton
I assume he means the inclusion of HD in the name. Similar to the addition of 64 after the title name. If not, please step this way. We will "correct" you

@Zach
I agree.
The best gaming experience is with Microsoft and Nintendo (imo)
Ninsofto

They don't have the biggest selection but Grainger Games are selling Wii U titles from £25.
They don't stock the consoles however.
Keep your eye on Tesco too. The NintendoLand bundle is £304 and they sell games from £23.

I love many games on many systems but I've never understood this series. It's not my cup of tea but it's nice to see variety on Wii U

@Powkitty4
Yes Sir, it's online enabled
It's mentioned up there in the review.

Bloomin' heck.
Give the damn console room to shine before knocking it. It's only 8 days old
Wii U will do just fine.

@Henmii
We got Okami remember
Arguably the best version too.

This really isn't an issue.

We'll just wait for developers to get a grip on the new tech then we'll see it truly shine and blow the competition clean out of the water shall we?

@BestBuck123
And a strong stomach

@PoshSnivy
Pretty sure that practice is not just exclusive to Nintendo.
At least they didn't need to resort to giving away TV's and taxi fares home in parts of the UK like a certain other company when they launched here in order to shift stock.

Ah, memories

@PoshSnivy
"The thing is that if you care about CoD, you would have a PS3 or X360 and be playing those games on there!"

It doesn't belong to PS3 and 360. It's a multiplatform game. Wii U owners may not own a secondary console. It wouldn't make any sense to buy a 2nd console to play a game that is already available on the console they currently own.

You invest in a secondary system to enjoy console exclusives not multiplatform games.

Pre ordered
I want that Bowser Suit.

I still don't know how many players are supported.
Anyone kind enough to fill me in?

@AlphaIchimoru
We can only hope that collaborations of any sort do not materialise. The industry needs competition.
Saying that, I've often thought of what would happen should we ever have a Wii60 like console between Nintendo and Microsoft. I could be wrong but I've always gotten the impression of an unspoken almost gentlemanly respect between the two companies. Sony as much as I respect them, come across as being almost like rabid dog most of the time. Snarling away with its pure unchained grunt. Not really willing to properly embrace change or innovation.
The Wii and 360 compliment each other incredibly well both with vision, innovation and software. Both are cheap too. That helps

@AlphaIchimoru
The fanboys better sell their cars in preparation. They want it but they'll be the first to complain when the price hits home. All 3 companies are now HD capable. The only thing that will make an impact anymore is pricing.

We will never have our N64 moment again.
Companies are taking baby steps towards ruin. Rein it in a bit.

@AlphaIchimoru
There are rumours that the 720 may be capable of Avatar-esque graphics.
Poor, poor wallets

I think the only way R.O.B. would prove useful would be for a player to command his movements on the gamepad rather than a peripheral. Literally like the mock up above.

R.O.B. bless him was like ASIMO with arthritis. Not the fastest thing on earth

Every game is repetitive in some way. COD gets unfairly judged on looks alone by people not willing to scratch the surface.

I really want this game but I'm unsure about the gamepad controls so this is great news indeed.
@mwellert said this 18 hours ago

@Geonjaha
It's someones opinion. It's not laughable at all.
We appear to be arguing. Let's stop

@Bass_X0
Of course games no matter how good can be improved upon but you have to acknowledge that to some people, a cherished game they like will be treated as their best game ever. To them, they may even see it as perfect.
You can't really argue with that.

It is after all, their humble opinion.

@Geonjaha
There is no such thing as the "best game ever" in a definitive sense. There can't be but it can be applied to someone and their personal views and enjoyment of the game they like the most
I happen to think Earthbound is the best RPG ever but is it? Of course it's not but from the RPG's I've played the title fits perfectly.

@Reef7009
Apparently, HMV have had more (albeit small amounts of) Wii U's delivered. Whether this is allocated store to store or just online I'm unsure.

To those seeking one, give them a ring. Good luck!

@WesCash
Of course Wii U is more powerful (by how much? Who knows yet.)
PS3 and 360 are 6 year old consoles.
Nintendo would have to go out of their way to make Wii U worse and less powerful. At the very least, Nintendo would have wanted it on par with 7th gen systems not sub par. This is a developer more suited to porting games back and forth between systems they're more at home with. Wii U is brand new hardware remember. This is just a sloppy port I bet
With 3 systems with different innards, one version is bound to have slight flaws in performance. Overall, BLOPS2U seems to hold its own when compared to it's 7th gen brethren.

@drunkenmaster76
We must destroy such iPadian insolence!

@Lan
Totally agree
