    I'm thinking for now I'm going to wait a couple years before I make a decision and just stick with the 3DS. For now, that little system is all I need for new content. Maybe by the time the game libraries for all the systems expand I'll be more interested. Even the Wii U might be better off waiting for more Nintendo character games. 2D Mario is going to be really good, and Luigi is getting his own entry in that series, but we need 3D Mario + Mario Kart + Zelda + Donkey Kong + Kirby + Star Fox + Metroid + Smash Bros. + Sonic before we really have an all-star lineup on the system that will make everyone rush out and get it.

    I don't know 90% of what's going on video-game wise now and I'm more content now to "Play outside".

    If people are talking about skipping this generation because they don't agree with things like DLC, always on requirements and games tied to consoles then I have a feeling that you're going to be skipping more than one generation.

    I'd imagine anyone who is willing to step away from a full generation of gaming at together isn't going to have an issue staying away from more. This might be the generation that gets a section of gamers away from games and on to other areas of life. I don't really see that as a problem.

    I don't plan on skipping this coming console generation, as there's still too many unknowns. I will not be buying the Wii U or the Xbox One, cuz Nintendo and MS have traditionally had nothing I wanna play. I plan on getting a PS4 at some point, when there's some great games out for it. I think everyone needs to just wait and see what's going to unfold over the coming months and make a decision about what console(s) they wanna buy and support, before making any decisions.

    All I can say is that we'd better receive some concrete answers to all these burning questions by E3. Microsoft's deliberate vagueness and obfuscation are starting to become veeeery irritating. Just give us some straight answers already!

    Honestly, there's tons of amazing and worthwhile games to play on 360 and PS3 to last us years. I will be skipping the next generation of console gaming completely and just stick with Steam. If I do join, it will be at the very end of the life cycle when everything is cheap and all of the hardware is finalized.

    So far I am not sold on the Xbox One. Too many cons against the pros of the console. I have been focusing on older titles I have missed. I am in no rush either. Lots of the games are easier and easier to find since games aren't that limited anymore. A few years I might consider buying a PS4 or Xbox One but I am content with what I have or what is out there that I haven't picked up yet
