The fall of a titan: The Wii U has no place in this world.

The Wii U has absolutely no place in this world. It seems all Nintendo ever does these days is come up with ways to upset myself and its other hardcore fans and I swear to God I am filled with such an overwhelming rage every time someone conjectures that the Wii U is ushering in the next generation of gaming. Well if the Wii U is the next generation of gaming then I just do not want to live in this world any more because all hope for my favorite thing in this world is absolutely lost.
The Wii U is not an improvement on the current generation of gaming, in fact, when compared to the Xbox 360 its performance is not even on par. The only thing the Wii U improves on is Nintendo's last console. As far as I am concerned the Wii should never have existed, they should have gone straight to a system the likes of the Wii U. It is a true successor to the Gamecube capable of actually playing today's games instead of needing a special secondary version of a game to be made so that the system can handle it and then completely destroying the game's mechanics in favor of gimmicky motion controls.
I do have to agree that I find the game pad really cool and innovative but that pales in utter comparison to the fact that Nintendo has pushed itself back once again by releasing their latest console and setting it nearly on par with the current Microsoft and Sony consoles that are outdated at this point and a new, much more powerful version of both consoles will be released soon. I really must wonder why Nintendo makes these decisions. Not to mention that they have completely let down their old hard core fans, such as myself, by neglecting their core franchises in order to make hundreds of casual games that would never become full series and are just absolutely terrible games. It is truly sad to see the once great titan that is Nintendo fall so hard like this, they may be doing well financially but overall they are setting the gaming industry back by refusing to keep up with the technological curve. All in all, the technology that powers the Wii U is the same technology that was introduced seven years ago with the release of the Xbox 360 and what is sad is that this brand new console could not even figure out how to best the seven year old Xbox.
