Phone memory goes a lot further than console memory, where the games are often 5GB+. I have over 300GB on both PS3 and 360, and each HD is full.

IMO the basic Wii U is the better value. Anyone that thinks 32 GB is "premium" these days has a screw loose. Both versions will need upgrading after purchase, and the money saved can go a long ways towards some substantial storage—not a measly 24 GB.

Pick your brand. Some consoles actually lose functionality as time goes on. I just don't think the Apple comparison works.

Except console revisions don't render previous iterations obsolete. The Xbox 360 E preforms the same as a day one edition from 2005.

I agree with you, but please don't say "Ninty".

Off on a tangent, but I love how the M rating says 17+, and stores in some states won't let you buy the games unless you're over 18. Meh, idk where I'm going with this. People are stupid, I guess?

Read the last paragraph?

Yeah, it's not looking very bright here in the UK. At least I was able to grab one of those £150 Wii Us when ASDA were dumping stock.

But there is no advertising. I live in the UK, and when I tell people I have a Wii U, they have no idea what it is. Everyone knows the Wii.

No kidding!

You should have a look at my SNES shelf, all of which I bought new, and then have a look at my emulator library.

I hope this happens. As an expat that travels all over, region locking is such a pain in the ass. I had to hack my Wii last gen, and I'd rather not resort to it this time around.

I nearly busted my gut laughing at some of these! xD

American expat in the UK here, and the PS4 is a no-brainer.

Yes, you're right. I'm sure GameStop will make a fortune closing that $5 price gap between new and used.

Publishers are going to eat into their slice. GameStop are only going to make a small fraction on what they are currently. That's what this is all about!

You know nothing, Jon Snow.

This will also be the death of them. They are not going to get <i>nearly</i> as much for used sales, and that's their bread and butter. Plus they are already struggling.

GameStop are not going to make anywhere near the huge slice they are getting now—and they are already struggling.
