There are concerns about the Wii U. Many people are worried it wont be powerful enough and the next consoles that come out are going to crush it. To that Nathanial Rumphol-Janc says... Cool story bro. The DS and the Wii were both less powerful than their competition and ended up being better for it. Let the facts do all the talking. The Wii U has full 1080p HD, it supports 25gb discs, it has an actual legitimate online network, and it's at least as powerful as a PS3, but likely performs even better since it uses newer tech. Yes, the competition will be more powerful, but that merely gives the Wii U the same advantage the Wii had.
Xbox 360 launched 18 years ago and was a generation-defining console that invited many people to jump into gaming for the first time and connect with friends around the world. We’re thrilled people continue playing their favorite Xbox 360 games on Xbox 360, or on newer consoles via Backward Compatibility for supported titles.

Remember the media reaction when PlayStation wanted to shut down the PS3 store (but then kept it open)... where is that reaction here?
RIP Xbox 360 digital store and all its games.
It really grinds my gears that they are waiting till 10 days before closing to give the best discounts and the list as of now is 100 or less titles from the massive 360 library
I should have enough points by the weekend to get £25 credit off MS, (hardly ever spend money on xb1), might look at a few of these.
The Xbox 360 store was one of the only advantages the Xbox Series consoles had over the PS5. When I got my series X, I spent more playing Xbox 360 games vs current-gen Xbox games since that was the golden era for Xbox and several titles had enhancements such as 4k resolution and fps boost.
Closing this store will now only benefit the competition.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night has received a bunch of new DLC, including two new gameplay modes, for free.
Don't really get how you can list reasons on why the Wii U will win next gen when you know next to nothing about the next Xbox and PS4. One of those systems can contain something very appealing to the mass market that no one could have predicted just like no body could have predicted that the Wii's motion controls would appeal to the masses as everyone expected the PS3 to dominate because of the PS2's success.
I cant see people getting bit multiplat hits like battlefield and cod and other online heavy games over playstation and xbox consoles, as currently (We have to see what nintendo network is like) so currently they will be just relying on a graphics upgrade in hope of selling the 3rd party games, also a big thing is nintendo platforms dont have trophys/achievements which is a big incentive for alot of gamers and will want the trophys+better online of the other two consoles, so i highly doubt in terms of third party the wii u will win next gen, they will need amazing first party games and it will probably be expensive.
The wii u probably will win next generation.
I have a strange feeling that those same people who taught Nintendo had burnt them for two generation (Gamecube, Wii), will except the Wii U with open arms.
This will be the first console I am going to skip. Just ain't feeling the Nintedo vibe no more haven't in awhile. I'm just done with Nintendo! Can't wait for next gen but for me Wii-U won't be part of my house hold.
