Comment Re:Why aren't people more hyped about the Wii U? (Score 1) 188

From the small sample size I can work with (that is my friends that do play games). I would guess nobody cares because the controller is pants taco retarded.
That's about it. Most people are semi-excited about what sort of games Nintendo might bring to the console. But any hope is crushed when one realizes that most games will have gameplay mechanics based around the controller shoehorned into them.

Also, I suspect that a majority of 3rd party titles will be a bunch of rehashed ports. Nobody will design a new exclusive title that is built around the controller for a new console with less hype surrounding it than the PS VITA.

In 2006 Swedish police in Örebro took a brute force approach in the hunt for a rapist known as 'Hagamannen' and *forcefully* tested 777 men before they finally found him. It was quite the circus and became something of a witch-hunt type affair where any tip from the public resulted in a summons for DNA testing.

Only four millions? Sounds a tad low.
The powers that be should live in the now and get with the program. Roll out a Crunchyroll type service so that anyone/anywhere can pay and watch their shows without arbitrary boundaries and restrictions. In today's interconnected world it is *unthinkable* to wait a week or a month... Heck even hours to watch the latest TV series and I suspect there is a sizeable and growing amount of purists among European viewers that refuse to watch the dubbed versions.

The old media distribution systems need to fuck off and die already.
