That's why everything last night was running on a PC with "close" specs to a PS4? Yeah...I'm sure it'll look amazing but not buying into the hype.

Yeah, in the US that drop will be to $199...sure it's a drop...but it's not that big of one.

The price drop in Japan means that the system will still be $199 in the US. Expecting people to drop another $200 ontop of a system that is going to be $400+ is crazy.

Probably has something to do with the 3DS systems using up too much wifi to connect so the Wii U needs the back up is all due to requirements of the network for the game itself.

No, what I'm saying is that the 5ghz chip is used for the game pad. The 2.4ghz chip is capable of 300mbps transfer still...which should be more than enough. However, can be a bit funky with gaming depending on where you live and the conditions.

It's the most stable connection for gaming and most people in Japan use wired access. It's also telling because even though the Wii U has a 5ghz wifi channel, it's used for the game pad to reduce latency to nil.

You're assuming enough people bought the Vita for them to care xD

Except there is no "start" button on this thing...anywhere...

Try picking up your current 6axis or DS3, holding it with both hands and moving it around while playing a game...it's weird as hell...

Try waving the current 6axis around while playing and holding onto it with both hands...it's actually kinda awkward...

They never said anything about full body motion tracking...they just said it'd be able to see the DS4 and Move controllers better in 3D space...

I would suggest Nintendo for your future console.

I'm going to bet that the streaming capabilities will be behind a pay wall. With them wanting to do the "fastest and most powerful network"...they're going to have to charge for that.

You saw no games in action actually. You saw mostly scripted demos and trailers.

Buyer beware with any "gameplay demo". Did the whole Aliens: Colonial Marines debacle not teach you anything? Yes, it was pretty...but there seemed to be way too many scripted events going on in everything they showed.

So, you're saying that this is possible future proofing for the wide adoption of 4K resolution and 3D TV's?

These days you don't buy a Nintendo system for 3rd parties...you buy it for the unique experiences that only Nintendo can bring...

Refresh my memory...where did they say it would be first on the PS4?

It has streaming capabilities so you can watch others play...and even is part of a streaming service (name escapes me) so that you can do exactly that...

Why show it? It's basically just an upgraded 360 or a PC...weirdly enough.
