They sold 1 million units in 24 hours and that's just in the USA and Canada. The demand was there and they managed to have 1 million consoles available at launch.
If these new consoles start allowing me to play FPS on keyboard and mouse I'll buy one, if they don't well no matter how good the FPS game is, its always going to be crap for me.
Its only NOT CRAP if you've not played keyboard and mouse.
I don't think its too much ask that in 2013, consoles actually make widespread use of the best play expereince for that genre.
Everyone on the car forums I know has a PS3 wheel for GT5, some of them even have custom built chairs.
Why is it that keyboard and mouse have not taken off?
I just started playing fps games on the playstation an at first i hated it because aiming with the controller is shit. But after a while it goes better and now i like it. Its fun to learn a new way.
Keyboard vs controller is not fair if you dont like it stick with the pc.
And if they allow keyboard on the console they should make seperate servers.
And there are mouse look a like controllers for consoles.
agree on this but we are definitely the minority. the only fps games on a console I can think of worth a damn are goldeneye, it's successor ;) and metroid prime. all employed a unique aiming system compared to analog trying to emulate a mouse.
only gonna buy it one day if there is game available that really catches me ... won't buy because of assassins creed 3, killzone 4 or call of duty 9 ... people buying now just buy it for the pleasure of owning it ...
don't know ... I just looked at the nintendo site ...
the new mario 3d, donkey kong, mario kart are still quite nice ... :-)
In principle you could buy a used wii u, play these 3 games
and sell all the stuff alltogether thereafter ...
estimated cost maybe 70 euro ...
hmmm ... :-)
