Battles have been had in the recent war between Nintendo and PlayStation. Well now Nintendo have had a chance to respond and this time with some amazing news for their fans… First of all a quick apology for people from the United States, Australia and other countries and regions, I am from London which means I speak in Great British Pounds. Enough of that though… This news is huge for Nintendo fans, it seems that Nintendo have found it hard to keep their upcoming console on the down low. As a result of this, rumours have leaked about the possible pricing of the Wii U, and I have to say guys…its looking good. According to several sources, the console is definitely going to be around and most likely below the £250 mark, this is much cheaper than expected for the Nintendos early riser and it puts shit loads of pressure on Sony and Microsoft. Obviously Sony and Microsofts upcoming consoles have superior hardware and will naturally be more expensive; however the £250 price tag set for the release of the console is a phenomenal saving.

Unless Sony changes a few of their policies, I won't be picking up the PS4. I am not happy what they are doing with the PS3, PSP and Vita right now. They keep taking away consumer rights and that must stop. I am not happy with Nintendo either for dropping GameCube support so I haven't decided on the Wii U yet as I still play Wii games with the GameCube controller. I don't have an opion on the 720 yet.

I'm looking forward to seeing what the PS4 really has to offer as it is the one I am leaning towards getting. It really depends on backwards compatibility and the price of the games. I have no doubt that it will be more than impressive when it comes to the new graphics and such but I am tired of having to leave another console connected just because I want to play PS2 games as well. The entire Playstation library of games from the PS1 and up is all very enjoyable to this day so it would be extremely nice to be able to play them all on one console. As for Nintendo, I feel as though the last good console from them was the Game Cube. The Wii has always felt too gimmicky and that most of the games really weren't meant to use the Wii controllers and therefore were not as much fun to play as they were on other consoles. I guess we will just have to wait and see as it gets closer to the actually release of each console.

After having 3 Xbox360's and all of them getting the Red Ring crap i wont be buying a MS console until well into its lifecycle. I mean i have owned a PS3 fat and Slim and never had a single problem with either of them, and i could swap out the 120gb hdd and added a 640gb one...tried doing that with my Xbox and NO GO, gotta use the overpriced and terribly small "Official HDD" that comes with it -_-.
I will be getting the PS4 on launch, just as i got my Vita on Aussie launch! Maybe after the Xbox 3 has been out for a bit over a year, and when i know that there isnt a major hardware flaw, i will buy one! But for now, Sony is the only console maker i trust to buy from at launch! I dont even count Nintendo since they dont make games for my age bracket (Adult male), Mario Brothers in go karts and cartoon graphics dont appeal to me AT ALL! And Nintendo graphics are always 2 Generation behind Sony!

Fuck Microsoft, they release unfinished products, and Nintendo sell cheap consoles because the hardware is old. Let's just wait to see what Sony has to offer.

GET READY EVERYONE! Nintendo releases a dos computer with a palm pilot controller! They go with the cheapest hardware the kind of stuff you get from china but overglorified because they spend more on advertising then the console. 90% of video games aren't anything new or great anymore I'm not excited for any of this overhype for the same bs these companies do. NOTHING revolutionary about these 3 companies advertise, rehash, recycle, disapoint repeat.

Get your facts straight. The N64 had better graphics than the PS1 and the gamecube had better graphics than the PS2. The Wii has been the only console inferior to PS in terms of graphics.

I know two things: I want Sony to at least announce their next console very soon (given what happened to Sony's market share after Microsoft got a one-year lead in sales, I would hate to see history repeat itself............) and New Super Mario Bros. U looks to pwn.

What a bullshit. Why do people keep comparing the Wii-U to the PS4 ? They are two completely diffierent devices, with completely different kind of games for a completely diffirent kind of consumers.
Comparing the Xbox720 to the PS4 is more realistic since they feature roughly the same games. The Wii-U is the one not fititng this lineup.
The only thing you can compare the Wii-U to is to the original Wii or any other previous Nintendo console for that matter ...

Unless sony changes its policies.... go F.U.S your not happy with a system that has security updates to prevent hackers and dirty pirates like you that seems to think they have some kinda legal right to pirate games.
SONY DO NOT KEEP TAKING AWAY CONSUMER RIGHTS YOU T!T, YOU CLEARLY DO NOT KNOW ANYTHING AT ALL, WHEN YOU PURCHASE A SONY PRODUCT..... IN FACT ANY CONSOLE/SOFTWARE, IT CLEARLY STATES IN BLACK AND WHITE, YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS TO USE THE PRODUCT/SOFTWARE/SERVICE. ONLY A T1T WILL CRY OR DENY THE FACT THAT HACKERS ON A CONSOLE ALLWAYS LEADS TO PIRACY. SO WHY SHOULD YOU BE GIVEN THIS RIGHT, YET GAME DEVS/COMPANIES GET NO RIGHTS TO PROTECT THEIR INVESTMENT BECAUSE YOULL CRY YOUR CONSUMER RIGHTS ARE BEING VIOLATED.
but please do enlighten me of these so called consumer rights that they have taken away... ohhh wait there isnt any, unless your refairing to hmmm egohot situation, now refair to the BOLD SECTION AGAIN.

And the Dreamcast which came out a full year before the PS2 had better graphics, and even had a modem for online play! Only reason PS2 out sold it was coz it went with a DVD drive and Sony had a bigger budget for ad's and promotion!
Back to the point though, in the last couple of console Gen's Nintendo has been inferior hardware wise and by the looks of things, will be the same in the up-coming Gen! PS4 and the Xbox3 are going to be better hardware wise!
Edit - Also PlayStation consoles fit perfectly in the home entitainment centre, a PS3 or PS3 Slim looks like a piece of high tech hardware...where Nintendo consoles generally look kiddy like! Like they should be in a 10 year olds bedroom!
Edit 2 - Oh and the GameCube did NOT have better graphics than the PS2, nowhere near! Heaps of review sites put them head to head and the PS2 could pump out more polygon's than a GameCube could. I owned a GameCube when they first came out and my mate owned a PS2...the games on his PS2 looked much better, cept maybe Spiderman which looked pretty good on GameCube! When my first got Grand Theft Auto 3 for his PS2 i pretty much stayed at his place and played it 24/7 (when he wasnt playing that is), i totally ditched my Cube!
