the wii U is in deep shit and yet they bring this gimped version of a console they don't even develop for anymore over to the states for the holidays, with a 5 yr old game everyone already has

Wow, that's pretty stupid. Then again, this wouldn't be the only stupid idea of theirs. Remember the Game Boy Micro (http://mariowiki.com/Game_Boy_Micro)? Or just recently, the Nintendo 2DS?

the 2DS is fine, its nowhere as gimped as the GBM and wii mini, all it loses are clamshell and 3D function

the problem here is nintendo launching a grossly gimped revision of a old hat console here after it bombed in canada and europe, all while the wii U continues to stay stuck in the mud hoping for mario and friends to pull it out, as the PS4 and xbox one are about to rear their ugly heads within the next couple of weeks

The playstation 4 isn't so bad it's that damned xbox one that has the issues due to the fact that it got delayed twice and I guarentee will have a ton of glitches and issues. Now I'm not saying the PS4 will be any better but at least they didn't get smacked with a delay twice. as for the wii u i personally think its just retarded and stupid considering I live in canada and haven't seen it get too far.

don't both PS4 and XB1 have a shitload of their functionality locked behind paywalls?

That is the one thing I have yet to find out i do know on the Xbox 360 majority is all pay and no play as for the PS3 the only pay for is to become a playstation plus member which just gives you the ability to back all your games and data on their servers as well as certain discounts/deals and a few features...very few. I have a feeling the PS4 will be similar in those terms but the Xbox one i guarentee will be no different than it is now where you need to pay for nearly everything.
