I'd like to put I can't afford it. So I'm gonna wait for a price drop by which point it should have some more games under it's belt.

Not even one of the games announced or released interest me. I'll wait and see how the next Zelda-game looks, or if suddenly somehow a must-have game rears its head.

Monster Hunter is looking to be that game...
Oooh yeeeah, just a little sad the US/EU version of it comes so long after the Japanese version (It's like they just realized they needed to translate it)

I'm likely to get one before then if my financial situation allows.

At the moment if the game line up continues to be what's currently on offer no BUT I need to see what SUDA 51's Killer is Dead is going to look and play out like that could convince me to Buy it.

Probably not, but...Bayonetta 2...

I 'unno, depends on the 3rd party support, the Wii never got off to a flying start with me.

Although if there's another Warioware game, maybe that'll change my mind.

Gonna wait until the price drops and when they get a few more games that I'd like. To be quite honest I'm kinda disappointed with it right now. One reason is that there is no dang ethernet port! What is with Nintendo and their hatred of ethernet ports!? My house is a huge dead zone so I need a wired connection. Also, none of the current games, except Pikmin 3, really interest me.

I'll probably get one when more games come out for it that I want. Can't justify it just yet.

Waiting for a price drop.

No way is the system worth $300.

Also I'm almost 100% soon that Nintendo will sell a model with 100+GB of internal storage.

Maybe if I can pick one up for 50p, as I do want to play Bayonetta 2 (provided that is, it turns out to be Bayonetta 2 and not Bayonetta 2 on a Nintendo console).

Also, I saw ZombiU in Game for the princely sum of £54.99. Really, that's pretty steep.

Already got it. Buuuut I have to wait for Christmas to use it, oh cruel fate. Luckily a mate of mine also got one and has no such limitation. And I can confirm it's amazing.

I seem to be number 11 in the "I already own it" category. Anyway, I got the deluxe and have been having a whole lot of fun with Nintendo Land. Definitely worth it in my opinion and more than just Sports Resort + Nintendo Characters and fun for people like me who play games alone 99% of the time. Would be improved by an online play mode though.

ZombiU is the other game I grabbed with my console and while I enjoyed it at first, I imagine I felt how Yahtzee did when he played Condemned 2. It started out great but just got worse and, worse as the emphasis shifted from stealthy zombie-bludgeoning to more action oriented scenes. Also the difficulty between normal and chicken is astounding: 24 dead survivors in normal before I finally quit and not a death yet in chicken...at least not until that fucking arena section...that's where the game dies for me personally.

Playing Mass Effect 3 now. Goodbye time!

No. After getting rid of the Gamecube controller design for that new retarded game boy. Nintendo are just making gimmicks now and I just don't give a shit about 'em any more. Probably from all the selling out they did they forgot how to make real games as well.

I will not buy one of these for the same reason I would not duck tape a plasma screen tv to my face: it would annoying, impractical, quickly outdated, cost way more than it's worth, generate all sorts of unanticipated problems, and not have quite as many uses as I may have thought when I performed said action. Also, plasma screens get very hot.

I'm holding off until I see the current slew of current-gen ports stop. I'll consider buying it once there's something like a solid five or six must-own titles out there.

Man I want to like LoL.

The heroes are great the animation and concept art is great...

But playing that game is like tea bagging a belt sander.

Yeah our office is divided between the people who love that game, the people who don't get it, and the call of duty players.

We try not to make any sudden movements around the last group. I'm part of the second, I don't "get it" but I respect it and would eat up a different genre game with their humor and hero roster.
