That's a bit of a stretch. 15 years ago was 1997.

It all depends on circumstance. Mike knows.

And... I'm WAY off topic.

So, yeah, I'm not really interested in the Wii-U at all. I guess I'd like to play New Super Mario Bros. Wii-U or whatever it's called, but I'm in no rush.

I'd love to know what Namco are thinking by not sticking online-multiplayer onto Tank! Tank! Tank!. Well, from what I've read so far, it's just local. I imagine a game like this could be a reasonable draw for those on these fence with regards to the number of AAA titles they're interested in, but if the multiplayer is strictly local, its appeal is going to be hindered by the fact you'll not be able to get full usage of it 'til you've got three mates on a couch beside you.

After spending countless hours chasing the tags on the PC version of GTA San Andreas the past 3 days, I really hope that gamefaqs provides Wii U support :lol:

I think that fact that games like Mass Effect 3 and Assassins creed 3 are launch titles is of great significance. The WiiU will have better 3rd party support on day 1 than the wii had in 7 years. Good news for anyone on the fence between a Ps3, xbox, and WiiU.

This doesn't make sense to me. Who would be on the fence between those three? Wouldn't you have already bought a PS3 or 360 by now if you wanted one? The people who are buying this (IMO obviously) are:
-Current Wii owners that only own the Wii
-Nintendo Fanboys
-People who buy every major console

FWIW, Wii launched with COD, Madden, and a Need for Speed game highlighting its third party titles...

Now that they have released a full launch day list of games I'm a little bit sad. Of the three titles I wanted to pick up with the system day one, none of them will be available until later. I'll have to tide myself over with Nintendo Land until they come out now since I dont think I can afford picking up more than one or two games in the "launch window".
