Started posting here since march, and quite quickly it became home for WiiU stuff, at-least pre E3 2012, but looks like it stay that way since I still didn't get activated on neogaf so all the tech talk has gone, whatever will there be left to speculate after E3 is a question, and whether nintendo releases spec sheet too; nonetheless been visiting all kinds of sites and forums to get a hold onto all of the speculation as I haven't been following it at all, i've only knew about it a little in occasional news hits that reached my attention but not nearly as deep as now, been buys with other things.
I have great understanding of how consoles work and the tech around it, and pretty much that's the only thing i truly care about, I have no questions of nintendo's software, I am confident they will provide and that from what I seen that is not the subject to worry, the most important thing to worry is the amount of RAM the WiiU will have, the part we don't have any concrete info at all.
Mainly i post on techpowerup.com ... the tech forum.
I am a nintendo fan strictly for nintendo-first parties an a few select third parties (soul-calibor, banjo kazooie ...etc), other than that i have no further interest in consoles, I own a custom built PC by mself and I have built quite many of them, all of the PCs in the house of my parents are custom part-by-part, i've also repaired PCs as a student job around the city which wasn't anything special just by refferal and tech forums.
So no, i've never owned anything portable from sony nor microsoft, and don't have intentions to, my opinion stands that pretty much all of the games there are PC derivatives, with some exceptions on the Sony side, such games i have no interest of, i play real PC games on real PCs, and I play real nintendo quality on real nintendo hardware.
As for the Sony first-party exceptions, those are fine but I am genuinely not an racing and RPG fan, so i cannot comment on any of those genres I am not experienced there, so no negatives toward that. The only racing games I played which I really enjoyed was Flatout 2 on PC (and F-Zero of course), I am just not a fan of realistic racing games.My opinion about microsoft is following, they're a tech company, a software company, yet they don't produce innovative hardware, and not games, the only reason they've created a console is to gain profit, their intention was purely business driven. That's how they stand in the corporate. Let's see the gaming side ... on the gaming side microsoft has zero legacy, they haven't discovered anything, they haven't invented anything, they've just put up a poorly deisgned system from the hardware side, that is cool looking and has a catchy name to appeal to a standard american joe. What they brought to the industry, nada, xbox is a pure and 100% parasite.
Sony ... is somewhere in the middle, i could go on in detail but i don't have as much bad things to say, just the reminder that if it wasn't sony and nintendo co-working on for a CD attachment for one of nintendo's consoles, playstation wouldn't come to exist, google it, it's all on wiki. Yeah for the first parties, i've updated the exceptions I mentioned above, I am sadly not a fan of those genres, so im not commenting on their quality. I do not comment what I do not understand, most important rule many people don't hold to.
UPDATE: (forgot)
