Wii U used to sell bad (actually no, it just didn't sell as much as Wii, but it still sold more than Xbox 360 and PS3 when they were launched), but when the Xbox One was announced the sales of the Wii U started going bananas. When the Xbox One was poorly received, EA suddenly said that they would be supporting Wii U next year and that their relationship with Nintendo is okay :boon: Because they're sooooooooo professional.

Relevant, I think Xbox One smells bad.
I never said Xbox One is good. It is alot worse then Wii U but some developers are still treating Microsoft like hardcore and Nintendo as "kiddy" which is unfair

Today I checked facebook...

I'm on Ad's position now. It's getting out of control, the PS4>Microsoft jokes are getting more and more stupid. I'm fucking pissed off. Heck, for a second I thought the console wars would be over, that Nintendo and Sony fans would laugh together on Microsoft's tomb while respecting each other's tastes...

but no...

it's fucking madness now. Sonyers just increased their ego too much. Now according to them, their console is the big shit, and they're even attacking Nintendo despite of their strong catalogue of games. I'm aware that they won E3, okay? but now sonyers are making fun of Nintendo again because it's a "kiddy console", a piece of shit compared to PS4 and EVEN XBOX ONE (yeah, they dare to say that), even when Nintendo respects their consumers even more than Sony, and they have awesome games released this year (and Bayonetta 2, Mario Kart and Smash Bros for 2014). It was fun for a moment... now they're playing way too dirty.

Shit, even the overload of gifs showing Sony beating Microsoft... it's not funny anymore.

I'll be honest... PS4 overhyped the conference just because they pointed out Microsoft's mistakes, their catalogue of games isn't even THAT good.

They have Destiny, that's ok. But... what else? Kingdom Hearts 3? don't make me laugh, the game is still in development. Final Fantasy XV doesn't even have a release date. Indie games? that's cute.... PC. They don't have a single fuck to show that isn't confirmed for other consoles already.

Again, I'm gonna stop making jokes about Xbox One, it increases Sonyers' ego, even when their console is not that great. I'll just let the console die alone.

These "Sonyers" your talking about fall under these categories.

I wouldn't take them too serious, Sergio.

Yeah... I know... 6_6 but seeing the same stuff on my Deviantart, facebook, tumblr, and even twitter... geez... it's getting boring, man... I hate Xbox One too but... guys, enough is enough. I'm pretty sure half of the people who are making fun of Xbox One will at some point find a game of interest and buy the console.
Consumers are just that stupid.

I'm actually in complete agreement with Sergio here. Who and who isn't being 'serious' doesn't really matter, the fact that the beatings and jokes are in such pointless, cruel abundance is what matters. It's just pathetic.

Considering the fact that I couldn't happen to care less about most of Sony's exclusives, yes.

I presume someone will come back by saying '4 to one,' so here's that cancelled out.

Oh gee. http://www.tompreston.deviantart.com/jo ... -377934574
Remember how Nintendo was showcasing some of their E3 games at participating Best Buy stores around the country? Well, apparently Microsoft employees have been hired to go to these events and preach about the Xbox One and make comments like "why would you buy a outdated Wii U when the Xbox One is right around the corner?"

However, the employees aren't getting what they hoped for. Most customers just start bashing the Xbox One in response. Seriously, Microsoft, the people attending these Best Buy Wii U events are people who are intimately familiar with the crap you pulled at E3. They ain't takin' your shit.

At first I thought this might just be a case of one really loyal Microsoft employee taking matters into his own hands (especially since the original source was /v/), but reports have come in from numerous Best Buy's around the country that indicate many Microsoft employees have ambushed the demo lines trying to persuade people to switch to the Xbox One.

Since so many reports have come in from all over the country, it's very likely that Microsoft organized these impromptu gatherings with the obvious purpose of trying to mitigate the negativity surrounding the Xbox One and generate positive buzz instead... which obviously isn't working since all the reports are about how Microsoft is trying to sabotage Nintendo.

I should just go now and buy more Wii U games and a 3DS xl.

Well I love the Dead Rising franchise, but I'm certainly not going to buy an Xbox one for it as I guarantee it will come to other consoles eventually.

Hoping you care about games like Jak, Ratchet, Crash, and Spyro as those were some great exclusives, unfortunately Jak, Crash and Spyro have not had a game in ages, and considering Crash and Spyro are now owned by Activison a GOOD title is likely not to happen.

@Hoodcom, so it was true... damn.

@Rayfist Back in a days, Sony had best exclusives. Sure, they have good ones today still, but nothing beats PS1 and PS2 era :)
As for the Microsoft, this thing they did was not nice. They should not bash Nintendo.

I've got to agree in this now. I thought the jokes about Microsoft's new console would be momentaneous but it starts to get evident that Sony is continously pressing the joking key to a point it is getting ridiculous and sick. Why they need to put Nintendo in the noise anyway? Unless they fear a "kids" console overcoming the sales of their own consoles.

And yet Sony should bash Microsoft, which is nice, according to you? Please explain to me your reasoning here.

Yeah the jokes have certainly got old, it was funny after E3 certainly, but it's time to get over it now, let Microsoft make dumb decisions, they're only digging a grave for themselves, Sony constantly picking at them is getting a bit tedious now. I do really like Sony, but it's time to quit the whole picking at Xbox now, since they've thrown the point across. Besides it's not like the first time a company has done this. Remember those Sega commercials against Nintendo?
