Probably not. I guarantee that it will probably makes us "Hardcore" Gamers again, but I don't think you will be considered any more cool than if you owned a PS4 or a NeXtbox.Metal Gear! Yes! And I'm sure tons o' people are gonna get the WiiU for Grand Theft Auto. You think it might be considered 'cool' to own a Nintendo product after the WiiU comes out?
Now if they bring out a super 3rd party alliance, then that might change.
