Would love to invite you to come and see my room ;D I'm out by 1000 stars to buy those as well. Which sucks because I just ordered Hanafuda cards from NoE

I think Nintendo need to raise the middle finger to everyone that considers themselves a hardcore. There is no such thing. The reason why the Wii "sucked" is because they lacked the graphical/processing power to display games like Uncharted/Gears/Final Fantasy XIII. But now that Nintendo have stepped up in the graphical department, they're now catering to "U", rather than "them".

I think having the name WiiU is BRILLIANT for a marketing choice. For us Nintendo fans, no it sucks, but for them, think about it. You have the world won over with a console named Wii, now they bring out another console which has name very similar to Wii. Instantly grabs your Granpapas attention again. If they called it the Revolution do you thinks Pops and Mams is going to be interested? They won't drop the WiiU name.
