6.5 times? Hahaha... riiiight.
That's incredible. Does anyone here really believe that such a thing is possible?
We'll be quite, quite fortunate to get 2 or 3 times.
10x or bust.

*pouts*Vicarious Visions!
I spray my musk on it to show ownership.Do any of you have a ritual when unboxing new hardware?

Vicarious Visions is also one of the few Western Devs that gave a dam on Nintendo Consoles and handhelds. Do w have any idea what they are doing, aside from an obvious Skylander sequel port?
EDIT: Shit, someone beat me to the VV topic.
YES!I open the box and INHALE. I cannot get enough of that new plastic smell.
*tears up thinking about cartridges*

You were expecting this to say "then I jerk off furiously" weren't you?

You've got answer for everything don't you?

Here's what I do.
- I buy the console
- I sit and stair at the box for a good hour or two
- I caress the box for about half an hour
- I open the box gently and take everything out
- I examine everything inside
- I connect it and boot up the console for the first time.
- I forgot to mention that I like the smell of new things, so I'll just sit and smell the console for a while.
I love the smell. Gotta take a moment to savor the smell.
I also make sure to preserve the packing materials. I tend to save the box and the packing materials for at least that generation.

YES!
I do the exact same thing.
*sigh* Wii U will probably be the last console I ever buy on launch day for the rest of my foreseeable life. I'll be just about finishing up my residency by the time the following batch of consoles start being released. And then it'll be work work work (and family too)
no, not at all.........................................................yes
I'm not even surprised

why do you say that. many a member on Gaf seem to be doing just fine gaming, working, and building a family.

Because I'll be a doctor and I'm realistic about how much free time I'll have
I'll still be gaming, I just don't think I'll have time to be as much of an active enthusiast. At the rate I'm going now just being in med school, I finish a game once every 2-3 months or so. It's only going to get worse, especially at the beginning of my career. Did you know just about every time I'm on GAF, I'm only able to browse and post in between lecture slides. I'm studying immunology right now! XD
For a few years, I let work and family squeeze me out of gaming. My console actually did gather dust. I was at the hospital for an average of 60 hours per week - and this wasn't including on-call time. Family and other hobbies ate-up the rest of my time.
I started playing again a few years ago. Cut my work time to an average of 50 hours per week. Curbed some of my other hobbies. I've become a much, much happier person now that I'm back to my beloved gaming.
If it's within your power, keep in touch - even if it's just a small number of games per year.
(edit: and if you have the ability to do so, use some of your vacation time (vacation time?! ha!) for gaming purposes. Shut-out the world and make your long weekend or week off a slot of time for YOU.)
It's the best advice I can give.

Another E3 prediction:
3DSi Lite XL
I mean, a redesign could happen I guess, but I really just wanted to show off my design.
On a more related note, does anyone think we'll get some solid cross platform functions outside of Smash Bros?
Late to the discussion, but Echoes is the best of the Prime series by a fucking country mile. Come at me bros.

Whoa I didn't know you were in medicine too Well that's good to hear. Nice to know it's possible.
I'll definitely try to keep gaming, but like I said, it'll almost certainly be secondary to other parts of my life. Man, I don't know how you're able to post on here so often though. And you say you're married too, right? Wow.
nintendo should buy nintendo and double its 1st party output
ooh so can you tell me about an inevitable super-virus that is going to wipe out the human race?
*stern look*If by that you mean direct your attention to Thunder Monkey, sure

Ehhh, what he posted about Retro and Monolith Soft was bordering on flame bait. So either it's unintentional and he behaves that way by reflex or he's being a dick on purpose for laughs and to push the envelope. I naturally prefer to assume the latter, because if it were the former... well, that'd be a shame.
had there been any hints that the GI cover could be WiiU?
or at least some news in the next magazine
No. Knowing them it's probably a cover for an already known game.
Well, I'm not a doc - I'm in radiology as an MRI tech. I've been practicing for ~8 years, been with my partner for 15+ years. For a few years (especially at the beginning), I practically lived at the hospital. For way too long, I worked 12 to 16 hours a day, went home, slept for a few hours, and then turned around and went right back. If I wasn't working, I also was studying for three separate board exams. When something went wrong at the hospital, I was the guy that they called - even when I wasn't on-call. As far as taking care of any problems at the hospital was concerned - difficult exams, difficult patients, difficult situations, etc - the answer was always "call Tom - he lives 8 minutes away and can handle this!"
At rock-bottom, I played maybe 3 or 4 games per year. I moved heaven and earth for my Wind Waker vacation, taking others' shifts, arranging vacation time well in advance.. stuff like that. Going-all out for that vacation (junk food, clean house, isolation from the outside world, etc) really stuck with me. It's the event that I model all of my gaming vacations on, including the upcoming Wii U Launch Week vacation.
Now I've moved, and my new job is much less demanding, thank goodness. Significantly more time for gaming. But that rough period made me appreciate my free gaming time much, much more.
You'll make it through!

It'll be a gigantic piece of poop, but sculpted in the shape of a uPad.. and the article title will say "Inside: Top Ten Reasons Why the Wii U Will Be a Turd!"had there been any hints that the GI cover could be WiiU?

Ha! Naah.. I'm more diplomatic with the med students; I like to write down slice and series numbers for them to look at.Oh, so are you the guy that puts the little arrows and the circle in the image that says "Hey. Hey idiot. This. Look at this."
Thanks for the words of encouragement
but they have teased this one so hard
when do we ban them?

I'd think that they'd be hyping it a lot more if it were anything Wii U related. There seems to be very little hype surrounding this cover compared to previous covers.
