What are you implying?


That you are biased for Nintendo. You were in the same "Will the Wii U succeed with the current launch lineup" thread defending the same un-launched console that I was saying wouldn't be successful.

It's a tad irritating when fanboys like yourself start passing there strong opinion as a fact.


There my opinions as much as your thoughts on the system are your opinions. Nothing more.

Like I stated earlier, the examples I presented were legitimate pros for the game pad that extended well beyond a the definition of gimmick, and by being "anti Nintendo" it's like you got offended and had to respond with "Well, it's still a gimmick"


Your opinion is that they are not gimmicks, my opinion is that those legitimate pros you threw out were still just gimmicks. Its a simple as that. I have seen enough and played enough of the gamepad to have formed an opinion.

Like it pained you to see that Nintendo actually improved upon the feature of a game.


Yes...the gimmicks offered by the Wii U controller improve upon the games. That doesn't necessarily make them less of gimmicky. Does using the gamepad as your inventory selector make the game better.....sure. Is it a gimmick...yes it is.

Oh, So I am biased because you saw me posting in one thread. Great detective work.

One day with the machine and I do have several problems with it, but I am not going to just start screaming this is a gimmick, and that is a gimmick, because you know that you really do not have a real argument about the machine. I have stated how developers have managed to not use the game pad as an inventory screen and you just keep shouting "gimmick"

Your fanboy admission is enough to show that it is impossible for you to accept any form of Nintendo success. If Nintendo reinvented the wheel, you would probably rant about how overrated the wheel is.

So pretty much any improvement on any given system is simply a gimmick. Guess HD, DVD, Bluray, and analog sticks are all gimmicks then.
