Why bother with PS Plus when you can get PSN for free?
I am aware of the constant stream of free games but honestly I'd rather have a free online service. It is robust enough to stand against XBL.
I am waiting to see how it sells here in the UK. If it sells out then you know it is doing well. We haven't had gaming hardware sell out here since Kinect came out. Would be nice to see the UK eating something up again.
So many big wigs exiting Capcom these days. Eventually they will hire the mods up at Unity as employees because all their Public Relations people left and nobody else will do damage control for them.
It will depend on how things go forward. If you are storing a system full of DLC and games it can fill up fast. Tekken itself is not big enough for the basic Wii U and take over half of the Premium version in memory. So you can see it can fill up more/faster than you think.
"I think those who say otherwise are clearly trying to preserve sales on their current hardware."
Actually it is people who measure something by a power leap. Even though nobody knows how powerful the others are.
The irony behind this article is Nintendo used to make some of the most graphically advanced systems.
Except people don't care about the specifications. They want games and a good price.
I think they will probably port it to both once these versions are finished. Definitely bodes well for Nintendo. Even if it is late it will still convince people who want it on there. And if they keep it up they are bound to become a default platform eventually.

If third party games don't sell on Nintendo why are 3DS games trumping Vita games in sales? Even when 3DS was off to a bad start games were still selling more units. You sir are using ...
So it isn't Microsoft's "hardware failures are within our expectations" response?
It is looking hard for Vita though it isn't doomed yet. Perhaps people are just against Sony's decisions about the memory cards or something.
Selling Vita on a "console quality" handheld isn't the right kind of tactic this time. During the DS era PSP was the only handheld capable of that but 3DS is capable of everything PSP had. It can have console quality games as well as the quirky handheld games DS was known for.
It did happen day 1. Not only that but there was someone who posted Project Gotham pictures of the screen turning fuzzy and the game crashing. Perfect Dark Zero was giving off strange echo sounds. I was aware of an error which said "please insert this disc into an Xbox 360" -_-
Scratching discs. Faulty hard drives. There are far too many hardware errors for me to remember on the first few years.
And these faults were found on the first night so stop...
I agree. There are too many factors playing against this theory that Wii U will be irrelevant by the time the others come out. Consumers are not driven by power. They are driven by games.
I think the Gamepad will be accepted by core gamers. Provided that happens it will be fine. Touch screen has proven to be accepted by the core.
Only when they are in short supply. The only systems going for inflated prices in the UK for most recent launches have been 360 and Wii since you could still get PS3, 3DS and Vita everywhere.
That is what I suspect.
The game is aimed at those who haven't played it. If people want it on Nintendo they will buy it on there regardless of how well it compares to the others. People buy games on their platform of preference.
I guess losing Itagaki really has put the series down. Losing other key members of the developers obviously hasn't helped but it just goes to show you how one man can have such a strong influence on the direction of the game.
The major credit I give the new team is they focus more on the continuation of the original. Something the 360 version of Ninja Gaiden 2 completely forgot.
PS3 games are still buggy today. Ask Bethesda and Treyarch.
It doesn't really need to. Wii U will print money for Nintendo at the end of the day.
Slow CPU = Less heat. That is a good thing for gamers.
I don't see what the disagrees are about. It means Wii U is unlikely to ever get a more serious problem like RROD because it uses less heat.
