Yeah maybe the extra security are detectives.

It amazes me to what lengths people go to pretend like Nintendo hasn't been relevant since the 90s.

I see what you did there

He was a great man. Responsible for Pokemon Gold/Silver, Kirby's Dream Land, Balloon Fight, Earthbound, Super Smash Bros., and was CEO starting in the GameCube generation until now.

people shouldn't say "For all intensive purposes" or "should/could/would of"?

The puck glows blue when they pass it, and when they shoot the puck at the net, it glows RED. This is the future of hockey for a younger generation!

While pretending like the Wii U doesn't exist. Yes, I'm sure 2014 will be the year where having a second screen off the TV is a gaming essential for the next generation of gamers. Unlike 2012/2013 when everyone hated that idea and thought Nintendo was stupid for trying it.

Of course. Steam.

I'm a DJ - I like a certain type of music, but if I get hired to DJ a dance, and the people are requesting Justin Bieber songs, who am I to tell these people that Bieber sucks and refuse to play their requests? I can hate Bieber all I want at home, but when I'm working - dammit I'll sing along to every Bieber song out there if that's what the guy paying me and his guests hire me to do!

and making things work better by using graphic interfaces... like a "visual" BASIC. That could work.

The latest Call of Duty is on the Wii U, though. Feel free to have a Wii U and also play CoD if that's what you want.

They have an online store, and they do a great job of getting indie developers to put games on it. They also invest in good developers and publish games from those developers, like the upcoming X by MonolithSoft, Bayonetta 2 by Platinum, Lego City by TT Fusion, etc.

It's the cheapest home console of the generation. And it is just a Wii HD. It even plays Wii games and uses Wii controllers.

Uh, there are no games that use more than one Gamepad. And there won't ever be. You are missing the point entirely. Also, there is a Madden game on it.

They do? Also, the Mario games are all different from each other. Also, you don't have to buy them! There are in fact, other games Nintendo makes. Really! In fact, they have like 2 dozen developers all making Nintendo published games all the time. And many of them have no Mario in them!
