I agree, Goldenshane. I grew up with Nintendo and I love it. I'm a huge fanboy. I hope no one takes this blog as a diss. In fact, it's the opposite. I'm very excited for the Wii U. I'm glad they're adding hardcore games too, but I'm more excited to see their first party games. The reason I find graphics important is that the reason there were no third party games for Wii is because it couldn't support the graphics. That's why I had to by an Xbox 360 to get the third party titles that I wanted. Now, that Wii U can support the HD graphics, I can play all the games I want, whether it's Modern Warfare or good ol' Wii Sports. Take this blog as a welcoming to the Wii U after I feel the Wii wasn't as good as it could have been. You say Nintendo is all about having fun, while the games on N64 and Gamecube were a blast to me, Wii really didn't live up to that level for me. I probably only own about 5 Wii games I could take out and play right now and have a good time. My point is Wii didn't really live up to my expectations as software goes. Also, what I've learned from owning an Xbox 360, playing online with friends, makes the experience a lot better, something Wii couldn't offer with their "friend codes." They haven't announced a new online service, but I'm guessing Wii U will be more expansive with that. So, I do have high hopes for Wii U without needing "blood or zombies," but if it turns out to be a Wii clone, I guess I'll have to just shoot zombies instead.
