OK, so basically you went from "you have no idea what you're talking about" to "you're pretty much right, but here's my excuses why."

I'll accept an apology any time. Plus, you read like a fanboy. Sorry, it's way too soon to say that the Wii U will dominate. People thought the Wii would. Go, search my history for "Revolution" and see how I drooled. It didn't dominate. It did in sales, it didn't anywhere else, and it was totally irrelevant for the hardcore gaming crowd.

The WiiU has a giant uphill battle with that crowd. Giant. It doesn't have the buzz the Wii had, in large part because it tapped into a new audience that wasn't very hardcore about gaming and has moved on to iPad gaming.

I am not saying it can't win this generation, I'm saying it's dumb to stand here and say it will dominate.

But whatever, I'm the guy that pointed out to you that the Wii had a rockier road than you make it out, and you're the guy who called me someone that knows nothing for saying it then basically admitted to it when called out on that with, you know, facts.
