Launch for all three! I've never bought a console at launch (barring DS Phat), so I want to get involved this time.

I'd buy them all eventually anyway.

[Dead Man Typing]

Wii U will need to be priced right for me to get one right away.

If Microsoft has full backwards compatibility for everything I've purchased on Xbox Live, then I'd definitely be inclined to jump on their next machine.

Sony have impressed me a lot over the last 2-3 years. If I was buying a current gen machine today, I'd pick up a PS3. So that makes me think they know what they're doing moving forward and I'd be inclined to be there day 1 if there's something compelling.

As always, it comes down to the games. And as much as I'm invested in my Xbox Live profile, I wont buy a new machine if it doesn't have any games to play.

[AmaterasuOkami076]

I'll get the Wii U likely at launch, PS4 at launch if the line up is good. And the 720 when there is enough software to warrant getting that as well as the PS4. I think Microsoft have the weakest exclusives so it might be a while, but I'll get all three eventually. Still need to get a Vita too.

Edit: If either Sony/Microsoft push an Anti-used game/digital only policy though that'd put me off.

[Ceebs]

What if I plan on not buying any of them?!

What now?

[Meelow]

Wii U at launch (or Christmas), It really depends between Sony and Microsoft on who will impress me more, but since I've been a much more PlayStation fan than Xbox I'll probably get the PS4.

These are the ones I had in the past.

3rd Gen
NES

4th Gen
SNES/Genesis

5th Gen
N64/PS1

6th Gen
GameCube/PS2/Xbox

7th Gen
Wii/PS3

[FirewalkR]

I'm in!

[Teknoman]

I will...but not at launch. WiiU is day 1, but everything else will wait unless I just have cash to throw around/it's at a decent price. Used to just be a 1 to 2 system guy, but after having experienced owning all 3 console and both portables current generation, I dont think I can go back.

[Phonomezer]

Eventually, for sure. Though I will only be buying a Wii U for Mario Kart; nothing else they've shown has impressed me in the slightest.

[jrDev]

As always, depends on price....Don't let me down Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft. Will not budge for anything over $350...

[Dragonzord]

I would like to say, 'No, of course not. That's silly. I don't know what they will be'

But I always end up owning nearly everything from every generation by the time it's out and available for me to purchase. I'm very easy to fall for the hype.

[Kamille]

Most likely I will get all 3... eventually. Wii U at launch definitely. PS4 possibly/likely at launch. Xbox 720, likely somewhere down the line. Plans for PS4 & Xbox 720 may change as we learn more (anything) concrete about them.

[Azure J]

Eventually, perhaps. Depends on what X720 brings primarily though.

[jaypah]

Day one, all 3. Like a sucker!!

[Ryoku]

Wii U at or near launch.
I already have a PC that'll handle the games I care for. I'll be upgrading this whenever.
Brother will probably end up getting a PS4 at some point in time, but personally, I don't really care much for the exclusives on that platform.
About the Next Xbox.... Uh, no. Exclusives that I literally can't bother to get interested in at all.

[Totalriot]

Of course I will buy all three. Wii U probably during the launch window, PS4 and XBox most likely after the first price drop, depending on what they will cost at launch.

[eXistor]

All 3 at launch like I always do.

[Sklorenz]

Ps4 and wii u will definitely be launch or 1 year window for me. I'll hold out on 720 until the exclusives build up a bit.

[deathkiller]

All of them eventually, may be one at launch.

[diamount]

Totally depends on what selection of exclusives they have as I will be getting the multiplatforms on PC. But most likely.

[freddy]

I'm gonna pass on the other two and just buy 3 of WiiU.

[666]

Wii U for sure
720 if I can transfer my 360 games.

[soulassssns]

I plan on buying all 3 just like I did this gen.

[pants]

I will be getting all three, but not at launch. At least two of the consoles I will wait out till a hardware revision.

[phillismalls]

Excited for the WiiU so definitely getting that day one. Like last gen I will grab the other 2 within the launch window.

[NeoUltima]

If I have the money to do so. Otherwise I will settle for whichever impresses me the most.

[mrklaw]

Yup. As I get older and less time to play, I keep pretending I won't buy everything, but it's inevitable

WiiU for Nintendo games, PS4 for Sony games.

I think the only possibility of not buying everything, is if PS4 is out first, or at the same time as 720 (imagine a same day launch!)

[Wiz]

Getting Wii U and one of the other two consoles. Leaning towards PS4 based off rumors for now.

[Ein Bear]

After the launch 360 debacle, I'm hesitant to buy another MS console at launch... the Wii U and PS4 are definites though.

[Pop-O-Matic]

Unless one of them ends up a massive failure and dies within a couple of years of launch, I'll probably end up with all 3, but only after a certain amount of time. I got a Wii in 2007, PS3 in 2009 and a 360 in 2011, so I could see myself repeating something like that Next-next gen.

[Hollywood Duo]

Probably not launch for all 3 but I can't imagine not getting them all at some point.

[KrawlMan]

This is the first gen where I might consider getting all 3 (now that I have the income). I have a feeling that I'll still just get Wii U + PS4 though. It depends on how much PS4 and 720 differ (hardware, content, etc).

[jkanownik]

I've owned very Nintendo console including Wii at launch. I justified my early PS2 purchase with the DVD player and my PS3 purchase with the Blu-ray player. Xbox 360 was my first Microsoft console.

I'm having trouble envisioning buying the Wii U or PS4 until there are significant price drops. I've yet to see a Wii U title that will justify the console expense and it is going to be hard to swallow the PS4 price without a media benefit.

[bede-x]

I'll buy all three as close to launch as possible. The Wii U is definitely day one since it's launching alone. I hope there's at least three months between Xbox next and PS4 release dates.

[specialguy]

Sorry, Wii U is a sure no buy for me.

[Jaruru]

maybe getting all 3, but definitely not day one for some.

WiiU = Day 1, first one to come out :p
PS4 = probably day 1, see what they offer
X720 = wait until the rrod period is over

[Amuroray]

lol@ people saying what they will buy without seeing specs,launch titles aka anything at all.

Wait and see.Oh and lol again @ people buying consoles at launch.People dont learn.

[Coolwhip]

Can I still post here if I wont buy all 3? I might even buy 0. But the Wii U might get a sale from me.

[apana]

At some point I'm going to own a Wii U and PS4 but it will be a long while from now. I moved on from the Wii after Skyward Sword and am now working through the PS3 catalogue. I like the Sony/Nintendo combo because you get all the third party games plus most of the major first party exclusives.

[Foffy]

Oh and lol again @ people buying consoles at launch.People dont learn.

I'm down on Wii U if New Super Mario Bros U and Pikmin 3 are at launch. I bought a 3DS and Vita well in advance for the big games I wanted (Super Mario 3D Land and Ys IV) but if Pikmin 3 is at launch, I'm damn sure I won't be playing a waiting game for the fun to arrive, as it'll be there at launch.

If you're referring to revisions/updates ala the 3DS XL, it depends on the type of updates the platform gets. Handhelds get spicier updates compared to consoles, so I don't think I'll be missing much on an update. Unless it's the 360, where the revision fixed the travesty that was the original, but it's one of the very few instances of that happening in the console space.

[Raptomex]

I am buying all three so I am posting in this thread. That is all.

[specialguy]

lol@ people saying what they will buy without seeing specs,launch titles aka anything at all.

meh, i can easily see with enough income and enough love of gaming, buying all three sight unseen. it's nt like any of the big 3 will be abandoned immediately.

hell if i was a millionaire i'd buy a wii u too, why not?

[BY2K]

Will get all 3 eventually.

Wii U is a sure day 1, though.

[mugurumakensei]

Can we post if we're going Wii U/PS4/PC? Xbox 360 left me with no faith in MS Hardware and I still don't care for MS's exclusives. I only bought my long since dead 360 for ToV, Blue Dragon, and Lost Odyssey.

[Dragonzord]

Amuro hasn't been perma'd after that Vita thread? teh bias

[Guevara]

Next gen I'm going to try to get only one home console (I already own a Vita). I think that should honestly be enough given the time I actually spend gaming. I had all the consoles this gen and it felt like overkill.

[Foffy]

I felt the same, but there are some other games that were better on 360 than PS3 for Japanese developers. Bayonetta and both Sonic games were better on 360, and in fact, I think the last game I actually played on the 360 was Sonic Generations when that came out.

[Khold]

PS3 and Wii U for exclusives, PC for single player multi-plats and exclusives, 360 for mulitplayer since that's where all my friends are.

[Crayons]

I'm just getting to buying the PS3 and the 360, I think I'll wait a few years for the games to be cheap.

[revolverjgw]

I'll end up with all of them eventually, but just the PS4 on day one.

[zruben]

Rich People Thread.



I'll probably just buy WiiU and PS4 #thidworldpain
