I think you've missed my real point. It's not about the price tag, it's about the price tag and the value of the thing it's attached to. Nintendo's current lineup doesn't fit with my tastes all that well so a Wii U is not worth it to me at at that price. Notice the "not worth it to me" part? I'm not say thing Wii…

Hooray for great features! I love being able to do that.

You simply have to decide what any "major" consumer purchase is worth to you. Most things get cheaper or better over time. Consoles are pretty static in their design so they'll get cheaper which means if it's not worth it to you now, it doesn't mean it might not be worth it later. I'm in no rush for a Wii U so I…

Zelda seems crazy ambitious. I can't see that coming earlier than 2016. I may be wrong though but considering how little they showed at E3 - as refined looking as it was - it's still got to be a long way off.

You've got to decide what's best for your purchasing dollar.

Despite a lot of cynicism out there, it's a great time to be a gamer. I can do all kinds of stuff with my systems that I couldn't do with my NES or SNES when I was a teenager. Last night I played my PS4 through my Vita while my wife watched Netflix on our TV with out PS3. What awesome madness!

I can see your perspective on this. Honestly, I only initially purchased a PS4 at launch because I've never taken part in a day-one console launch before and wanted to get in on the fun. Since then though, I've been very happy with my purchase as I've enjoyed a number of first and third party games along with some…

While I won't argue that the memory cards aren't overpriced (because they are), your value judgement on the Vita is incredibly subjective. My Vita is my favorite handheld gaming system ever and I've owned a Gameboy, GBA, DS and PSP. It's been completely worth it for me and I am incredibly happy with its software…

"The Wii U is going to get the best exclusives," you for got something like "in my opinion", because it's all subjective, right? You were disappointed by the XB1/PS4 lineup at E3 but I came away totally excited. Is one of us right and one of us wrong? No, because it's opinion and not some kind of measurable,…

I agree that it's not guaranteed. I do think that by the time Zelda actually comes out, the overall price will likely drop. I could pay $200 for a refurb now and have it sit and wait for Zelda, or I could wait and potentially get a new one for $200 once Zelda is out (if the refurbs aren't around or don't drop in…

For sure. My TV gaming time consists of a maybe 3-4 hours a week spread across a night or two when my wife works and my little one is in bed. I like those action heavy and sometimes violent games and the PS4 fits my TV time very nicely. It's been a great purchase for me.

Oh, but you're making a value judgement for me. The Wii U having a good lineup and the PS4 not having one is completely subjective.

Not sure if serious.

Get outta here with your common sense! Don't you understand, this is a fanboy WAR and we must fight to the death to defend out system(s) of choice! This is ALL that matters.

Oh, calm down now. A $200 Wii U isn't too much for me rather, a $200 Wii U isn't worth it for me at this point. It's all about personal preference in games and not some binding law that I am dictating to everyone regarding purchasing decisions. So I'm not in a rush to buy your console of choice - no reason to "not…

Bloodborne to you is like Zelda to me - that one game that might push a system purchase. Coincidentally, Bloodborne doesn't interest me at all but that's just trivia.

That tiny glimpse of the next real Zelda really caught my attention. I don't like to buy a system for only one game but if it turns out as good as it seems it could be, I may make an exception. That being said, I can't see that game coming out for a while so I've got time.

That's the great part of being a consumer. Not worth it to you now? You can wait and the price will probably go down. I love my PS4 but I know it's currently library and $400 price isn't for everyone. What's worth it for me isn't guaranteed to be worth it for everyone.

That's one of the reasons I absolutely adore my Vita. The ability to suspend a game and resume it whenever I want to, wherever I want to is so great. I replayed Final Fantasy IX for the third time the first summer I had my Vita and it was great because I didn't have to wait for save points if I needed to stop. It…

I might some day. I'm in no rush. I'll likely wait to see if the new Zelda lives up to it's potential - which I'm pretty sure it will - before I bite.
