I am so not excited for the Wii U
That being said, I also have no excitement at all for either the new Xbox or Playstation.
This money grubbing trend, DLC, DRM, On-disc DLC, Microtransactions, using REAL money as in game currency (Diablo, sigh...)
I see it getting much worse before it gets any better, if it ever gets better at ALL.
So far, only my 3DS has that true old school gaming feel. Buy the game, get all the content on it right from the box, I don't have to pay to get power-ups or extra levels. Great games too.
