Nintendo's response to Operation Rainfall has seriously changed my perception of what the Wii U is going to be. This is extremely depressing, now that I understand what's going on. They'd rather focus on shooters and casual titles. Hopefully, the Japanese studios will see this as well, and port their titles to platforms that actually support variety. There's something really wrong when the Xbox gets more JRPGs than the Wii.

Unless something happens with Dragon Quest X and it's a US launch title, I have no reason to buy a Wii U, and probably won't for quite a while. I'll probably skip Skyward Sword too, until I can get it used for cheap.

A lot of people have been crying Dreamcast in response to the Wii U, but they're still wrong. With the message they're sending now about the kind of games they will and won't localize, the Wii U is going to be another Saturn!
