This was the first laugh-out-loud funny episode I've seen in a long time. Well done, Yahtzee. You made my day funnier.
Regarding the game/system, I'm on the fence on whether or not I'll get a WiiU. If it don't, it will be first Nintendo console that I haven't owned.
I've loved Mario, Zelda, and Metroid for a long time; even though I've gravitated away from Nintendo, I have a soft-spot for those series. On the WiiU, the upcoming Hyrule Warriors game looks like a lot of fun, and we know that there will eventually be a core Zelda game down the pipe, but I'm with Yahtzee when it comes to Mario: Nintendo has just be re-treading ground since Galaxy. Then there's Metroid; 2007's Metroid Prime 3 was the last good Metroid game and that was made by Retro Studios. There hasn't been a good made-in-house Metroid game since 2002's Metroid Fusion.
If I was given a WiiU, I would embrace it with happy glee, but I don't know if I'll ever be able to bring myself to purchasing one.
