In other news, Xbox One reportedly led all consoles sales with 1.2 million units sold in the US and UK for the month of November, breaking PS4's 10 month consecutive streak of outselling X1 in those regions.

Of course it took a 50.00 price cut, 2 free games bundled, and a 50.00 gift card with some retailers to achieve this but hey, it's still a great accomplishment.

No doubt.

They claim it's because the system was built from the ground up.

I think it's because they didn't want to lose the the game sales.

Nope, no backwards compatibility. It sucks but it's turning into an industry standard. The PS4 isn't bc either.

The Wii U is the only console this gen to be bc.

And the trend seems to be "remastering" games for the new console and selling them all over again.

 

[kwebbvols2344]

I am so sick of re-mastered games.

Its a lazy way to make big money, something the entire industry has become adept at.

I will admit some of the remastered games are very good, last of us was superb. Though I agree that for the most part it is money grubbing

Last of Us was great, but I played it on PS3 and updated graphics are not a reason for me to re-buy a game.

My body clock is totally ****ed up and I love the Wii U. I bought it for my son but actually ended up getting myself one because of the gamepad. I can lay in bed and watch Netflix, or surf, or play a video game, right next to my wife and listen with headphones and I don't bother her at all. The game pad is just very versatile. I know this is an Xbox thread but I just has to throw that out there.

For those who stay up later than your wifes this has some serious pluses.
