Oh really? I'd have never guessed, Nintendo. /sarcasm

@GraveLordXD To be fair, for all intents and purposes Bloodborne appears to be Dark Souls 2.5.

I bought the Wii U and while it did have several fun games, I never found anything that really stuck with me that I could play for hours on end. I actually bought it to play all the games I enjoyed on the television without having to haul my PC into the living room. It's been out three years and I don't even have that many games I play regularly on it. You know why?

I need online multiplayer, I have no friends who can come over for local multiplayer without driving hundreds of miles. And Nintendo can't do online multiplayer. They are far, far, far too behind with the times to properly do it. Mario Kart 8's multiplayer works pretty well minus Mommy Nintendo only letting you say certain messages. Super Smash Bros. has way too much input lag online and the voice chat with friends sounds like a tin can stuffed into a potato. Splatoon doesn't have voice chat for the absolute dumbest reasoning but thankfully online is good in that. Hyrule Warriors would have been fantastic for online co-op, as would have Super Mario 3D World.

That and Nintendo of America refusing to bring over a lot of stuff from Europe (Which is in English, mind you, so I don't want to hear translation nonsense) and their horrible release schedule of virtual console games. The darn Xbox has more N64 games than the Wii U, seriously Nintendo?

The one thing I thought the Wii U was really going to shine in was the gamepad support for third party games. We all see how THAT went. And as for Amiibo, I got all of three of them before they became the new gold rush because Nintendo can't supply them worth a lick.

I grew up with this company and I love their games all faults aside. But I think it's time I jumped the Nintendo ship. I can just emulate their previous gen titles on my vastly more powerful PC and get a majority of third party titles on there. I'll probably stick with them on handhelds as that seems to be the one thing they handle well enough. And if the NX turns out to be the moment Nintendo finally wakes up, maybe, JUST MAYBE, I'll get one.

But they have a lot of proving to do to me.

Dark Souls III is going to be hard to beat, for sure. Dark Souls II refined the franchise greatly but still had rough edges, and it looks like Dark Souls III is going to be even better. Xenoblade Chronicles X looks amazing too, and I imagine I'll be spending lots of time on both of these amazing games.

I was looking forward to playing this on the gamepad instead of on my PC, but Nintendo of America once again proves how much they hate money.
