Captain Falcon died in that battle too, so... What's that mean for the Wii U, then? =P

Nice. I'm still thinking about taking the Target price cut on the "Basic" system, even though it would mean needing a new external hard drive in the very immediate future. =P

As Sega Stylista would unironically say,

O.C.F.

One Console Future

Do note that I said that Lego City Undercover is not a system seller on its own (obviously), but it is a nice title for people to look into once they've played the heavy hitters.

The Wii U is set to finally have some system-selling games in the next year, including the new Smash Bros., an exclusive Sonic platformer, and a 3D Mario title.

Then games like Lego City...

Is it because they allowed their game budgets to bloat out to such astronomic proportions that new game sales alone couldn't support them, so they believe that these anti-consumer tactics will be...

Well... It's always nice to have goals. ^^;;;;

World of Goo is also about half a decade old at this point. How many games are still hot topics after 5 years? Not many. =P

Regardless of what your opinion of indie games might be, they have been...

Oh, what price was it before?

If you say 350 pounds then I will have a good laugh.

True, the leap in terms of numbers may not be as huge as we're thinking, but it has been enough to put the Wii U in the top 50 best-selling video game products for the week... So I guess that's...

Welp... Look what you doggone gone done and did, Microsoft. =P

Also, arcade fans and fighting gamers will have to pick up new arcade sticks, and those ain't cheap.

(My pink Hello Kitty arcade stick cost me well over $100, for instance.)

Nintendo's reportedly been hard for developers to reach in general, not even just indies.

Does this NoA manager have anything to say about that?

Okay, so actually it turns that both Indie Games and XBLA are gone, as there will be no distinction between low-priced and retail-priced games on the system. They'll all be fighting for attention in...

Playboys. <3

Indie games is still around.

This article is about XBLA, which already had a quality control system in place. However, what they're saying is that it doesn't matter if a developer has a pristine...

The name is sort of interesting, since Microsoft didn't name the Xbox 360 as "Xbox 2" because they were afraid of having a number that made it sound inferior to the PlayStation 3. ^^;;;

In Japan, they've got Yakuza, Hatsune Miku games, PSO2, Shining series, other RPG's....

We in the West get deprived of most of their best games, unfortunately.

Well, I guess technically what he said is true.... x86 is 32-bit. But, there is also x86-64.

Oh, and who could forget this classic image?

Ahhh... The old days of Xbox 1 are coming back... As Xbox One. =P

Oh, and another CD-i model:

I'm assuming that the Xbox One will be much heavier than these things though.

That's what I immediately thought of, too.

In fact, this thing may be even bigger than the CD-i systems.

*Microsoft chucks a grenade at Sony and Nintendo, then hides away with eyes closed and ears plugged*

*The Call of Duty dog fetches the grenade and brings it back, placing it beside Microsoft*

I wish that Microsoft's stream had been on Twitch; there would have been http://media.tumblr.com/98625560394deb94b6d5aca0cc5643d7/tumblr_inline_mi2ds9YT1O1qz4rgp.pngs for miles. xD

More than likely the "little digital titles" will be the ones worth playing, given what the 360's retail games were like. =P
