Which one will be the best next generation console?

Post by Deagle » Thu May 09, 2013 10:37 pm

I believe it will be the WiiU . Yes , seriously .
1- Piracy Sells . Piracy simply sells consoles . PS4 will have a really good security and the XBOX (3) will need to be always connected to internet , more security than the new SIM City !
2- Special exclusives . Mario and Zelda are simply not replaceable . But , on the other way , Infamous is as good as Prototype , Uncharted and Gears of War - Army of Two .
3- Backwards compability . WiiU runs Wii games, and some NES , SNES , GB and N64 games . PS4 ? Only PS1 and PS2 . Xbox (3) - Hardly will emulate XBOX .
4-Unique. A good PC will be able to do a better job than the PS4 or XBOX (3) . Now , there's nothing i know of that plays like WiiU .
5-Other type of backwards compablity.Wii accesories work on WiiU , All of them , and even a gamecube controller adaptor has been unofficially released . PS4 will use PSMove . Just that . Xbox(3) won't use kinect , probably won't use Xbox 360's controller.
6- Cheapest console . It will be the cheapest one, for sure .
7- Various ways of playing . PS4 - (Rarely Move and eye camera) , and regular controller. WiiU - Pro controller , Gamepad(Screen , giroscope and buttons) and Motion controller .
8- Better games - Games will have better WiiU versions . Like Batman Arkham City .

Ok I will give you that one, its sad but its true

2- Special exclusives . Mario and Zelda are simply not replaceable . But , on the other way , Infamous is as good as Prototype , Uncharted and Gears of War - Army of Two .

Mario has been the same for god know how many years :lol:
Zelda well I never played a Zelda game so I cant comment on it :/
oh and did you really just say Army of Two? those games are lolbad :lol:


3- Backwards compability . WiiU runs Wii games, and some NES , SNES , GB and N64 games . PS4 ? Only PS1 and PS2 . Xbox (3) - Hardly will emulate XBOX .

PS4 also will have PS3 and yea IDK about Xbox

4-Unique. A good PC will be able to do a better job than the PS4 or XBOX (3) . Now , there's nothing i know of that plays like WiiU .

There is a reason for that ;)

5-Other type of backwards compablity.Wii accesories work on WiiU , All of them , and even a gamecube controller adaptor has been unofficially released . PS4 will use PSMove . Just that . Xbox(3) won't use kinect , probably won't use Xbox 360's controller.

so? I did not like the wii so why would I want any of its accessories? also if I wanted gamecube I would just buy one

6- Cheapest console . It will be the cheapest one, for sure .

true you do have a point here

7- Various ways of playing . PS4 - (Rarely Move and eye camera) , and regular controller. WiiU - Pro controller , Gamepad(Screen , giroscope and buttons) and Motion controller .

*cough* stream to Vita *cough*
oh and BTW the 3hr battery life on the gamepad is ridiculous plus its not even capacitive :lol:


8- Better games - Games will have better WiiU versions . Like Batman Arkham City .

Ok this proves you have no idea what you are talking about, the WiiU version is not only glitchy but it also is Xbox 360 graphics with stuttering cutscenes

look I grew up with Nintendo and I would love to see them back on top but you and everybody just has to realize thats its over
there is almost nothing Nintendo can do to compete with Microsoft or Sony
infact Nintendo said the WiiU is not selling as well as they expected heck I have seen people compare its sells to the Vita
now dont get me wrong there is stuff Nintendo could do to get back on top but it would involve them re-rleaeeing the WiiU with modern hardware ;)

the bridge is over and we all have to move on :/

So what team are you on ? PS4 or XBOX(3) ?
FINAL REASON:
People expected from the PSVita as much as they know expect from the PS4 . It will maybe be a failure like the vita . I can see that happening . And playstation doesn't change , it's always the same. And microsoft is even worse . PS4 will be really overpowered, uselessly overpowered . It doesn't need to be that potent . Sony should simply do an awesome PS3 Update , and not releasing a whole new console . Or , a small , easy to use and powerful console , like the WiiU . And i just know that the next XBOX will only make succes because it was made in USA, and Kinect .

why do I have to be on any side?
it's always the same
thats Nintendo more then anyone :lol:
PS4 will be really overpowered, uselessly overpowered
how will it be useless? you can go ahead and enjoy a system with 10yr old specs ;)
a small , easy to use and powerful console , like the WiiU
easy to use? I find all of them "easy to use"
next XBOX will only make succes because it was made in USA, and Kinect
what? how does "made in USA" make it a success? and Kinect is a huge failer

No , nintendo changed from the Gamecube from the Wii , and from the Wii to the WiiU.
"Uselessly overpowered" I meant that half the ram is for the games, that's idiot. And there's a chip just to record vid!
Easy to use - Simple, you put the game , you turn it on , you're playing !
Wish sega was still making consoles, so last year we already would have a ps4 level console :(

I guess the next generation consoles will be "more of the same".
xbox infinity: xbox with updated hardware, same games, and same amount of ragey 12 year olds. Still trying to imitate Nintendo with the motion controls, and falling flat on its back.
ps4: a not too bad PC with a BSD-derivative OS, and a built-in streaming service. Has many features and awesome specs, but as usual, half of it doesn't work because bananas. Improves on Nintendo's controller idea by using the Vita as a controller.
wii u: wii with updated hardware. Does more of the same stuff the wii does, uses the same peripherals, so if you're a wii owner, you can easily switch to the wii u.
(a possible sega console): barely marketed outside Japan, sells like hot bread there, and like crappies in the rest of the world.

Overall all companies do whatever they've done so far. I don't believe there would be a "best" console, but out of those I'd buy a wii u: no bs security that takes up half my system away (I'm looking at you, Sony), and no bs cameras scanning my room for no reason (I'm looking at you, Microsoft). Both of those systems being constantly on and wanting an internet connection is something that worries me greatly as far as my privacy is concerned.

Now that's a great reason to buy a Wii U, why didn't I think of these before? :lol: The PS4 is the best imo, because if older PS consoles were the best of older generations, then the new ones will be the best of new generations. :P But that didn't work with Sony, so they are adding more BS every time. Still better than Nintendo & Microsoft though. :mrgreen:

BTW, I find the Wii from the same generation as the Gamecube & PS2, & the Wii U from the PS3/Xbox 360 generation. That's my opinion, because graphics abilities say all.

PC glorious master race, if that's the case. PC graphics > all.
Umm, what about fun then? If a game is nothing but a grind fest with absolutely no fun or satisfaction, why play it, even if it has good graphics?

This is not what I mean. I mean that a console's generation depends on how much graphics it can handle, the Wii U still has bad graphics. ;)

But: if a console has no games that would interest me, yet another one with worse graphics abilities has a ton of titles I'd be interested in, does this mean that the one that will bore me out of existence is better? I'll give you an example: there's 3 games I'd ever want to play on the Vita, and many more on the 3DS. 3DS has worse graphics abilities, sure, but this doesn't mean the games look worse, especially if the developers are aware of the restrictions they have and take them in mind. Does this mean the Vita is better, when I'd have a better time with the 3DS?
My point is: fun > all. If a console has fun games, I don't care about anything else as long as it doesn't get in the way of fun. Games are supposed to be fun and entertaining first, good-looking or anything else second. And if you're looking for good graphics, you can't beat PC.
