Kek. Go with a PS4 or Xbone. The Wii U is dead as fuck despite what /v/ might tell you. Go with a console with a strong future ahead of it. Both the PS4 and Xbone have a good 5 years left in them.

I don't give a fuck about keeping up with the videoJoneses. I'd rather buy a console with great exclusives I missed at a cheap price, and since the Wii U is going to be surpassed by another Nintendo console, wouldn't this be the best time?

Wii U only has Mario and Friends rehashes designed for toddlers.

PS4 has some good exclusives, with tons more dropping in 2016/2017 and has great third party support so will be getting pretty much every single relevant game coming out.

Basically:
If you don't own a capable gaming rig -> get a PS4

If you do own a capable gaming PC -> Are you a hardcore Nintendrone?
If yes, get Wii U and PS4
If no, just get a PS4

>>321296193
Saying "only"implies that $400 is cheaper than buying a second copy of your graphics card to run in SLI at whatever it will be worth in 6 to 8 years, which is definitely not the case

To say nothing of your implication that the PS4 has 6 to 8 years of life left before the next iteration, which is ludicrous.

Fact is, if you're buying now, your PC will carry you through what's left of this gen and next gen, and then the gen after that with minor upgrades that definitely will cost less in total than buying a ps4, the next ps, then the one after that.

Which is what spurred the first post

>>321297067
Not really, buying a new processor and graphics card every gen is the same price or more expensive than a new console.

They're both planned obsolescence, only difference is that your parts are individually planned obsolescence while the PS4 as a whole. PlayStations only require a $300-$400 upgrade every 6-8 years (and are supported with crossgen beyond that). Are you seriously trying to tell me that you spend less than $300 on your gaming in 6-8 years?

Really the only advantage of PC is BC, but honestly the only advantage there is saving space the size of a shoebox, because if PS5 isn't BC (which I think it will be, due to the architecture), just keep your PS4. Unless you live in a fucking tiny shack, I don't see how that's an issue.

Alright, here's the deal:

You can either jump through hoops and try to justify not owning a PS4, the definitively superior console this gen, and own a PS3, PSV, XB1, and gaming rig (when all you need is a PS4), and even then STILL miss out on the PS4 only exclusives.

OR

You can just accept that Sony won and the PS4 is getting literally every good upcoming game (only exception being XCOM2, which plays on a toaster and will likely be ported). And then if you're a nintendrone you can also pick up a Wii U.

Nintendo dropped the ball big time with the Wii U and what's worse is that the NX is coming out in like a year so no point of investing in it. PS4 just flat out has more choices and since the Xbone failed, the PS4 has better opportunities to get exclusives.

Used Wii U isn't bad, not sure about PS4, if you're willing to drop that go for it.

The Wii U is ded, senpai.

It also costs more than a PS4 which has another 5+ years of support ahead of it.

If you own a good PC, Wii U

If you don't it depends on which games interest you more I guess. I know personally I'm more into Splatoon and Smash than Bloodborne and Uncharted.

Literally everything follows this rule though, if you find out how to manufacture almost every type of appliance or thing you'll use, if you're not buying it from an Amish store or it's made out of completely wood/steel and has no/little interaction, chances are planned obsolescence is a 'feature'. PC has this as well to some extent, it's just something that lasts longer and isn't as evident right away. It doesn't matter too much because we have progress in the field so often anyway.

>>321295532
Nintendo is also planned obsolescence and he didn't imply it wasn't, he was talking about PC. Consoles are as close to the definition planned obsolescence as possible.
