Well...things are looking good for Nintendo now. Sony execs are high fiving each other gleefully.

It's now or never, Sega.
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

I was hoping for:

Microsoft Video Computer System
Microsoft Master System
Super Microsoft Entertainment Sytem
Microcast
Microsoft 7800
Microsoft Color Computer
Microsoft CD
Microcade

and also

So did I, until the end. What is it with all this Nintendo hate? I've had to put up with this crap since the original Xbox was out.

Nintendo simply hasn't had a strong 3rd party lineup since the SNES. You buy them for Nintendo games, and supplement them with another major console. On their own, there's a lot to be desired...

I'm a pretty big Nintendo fan too.

Also, it's just WiiU that is singled out and really what reason is there to own a WiiU right now? Dislaimer: I own a WiiU.

Nintendo Land, ZombieU, New Super Mario Bros. U. That'd be enough for me, if I could afford to get one.

I personally need way more than 3 interesting games to jump on board a console, especially at the price point that most consoles sit at this point in their life.

I've got no doubt that the Wii U will eventually have a nice enough library of interesting exclusives for me to want to pick one up, but at its current library and price? I'll wait.
