NPD's are just going to be battle of the "who shipped mores" for the next couple of months since both are selling out.

NPD salt won't hit critical mass until around Jan/February when the consoles start to become readily available in stores.

Apparently it's a really good device for XBMC. I was thinking about purchasing an Intel NUC, but it's $200 more for the lowest configuration. My current HTPC costs too much to keep on all of the time...

How much could it possibly cost?

It's a computer I got from my dad's job for free a year or two back. It's basically a freaking server: http://h18000.www1.hp.com/products/quickspecs/12849_na/12849_na.pdf

It actually plays modern games on Medium to High settings, so it's not half bad in terms of power (they were platforms used for viewing blood samples for Cancer research); but the thing is MASSIVE, it sucks power like no other and it's not exactly quiet.

So something that runs XBMC flawlessly, fits in the palm of your hand and is quiet in comparison is pretty attractive.

Edit: 1050W Power Supply...

HarSon I am going to buck the trend and tell you to go for it that way you can test it and post impressions without me having to waste my own time or money.

If that's what you're looking for, maybe you could look into a raspberry pi.

I already have one. I used it to replace the same computer being used as a NAS :p It doesn't work too well as an XBMC device though. It has trouble decoding some audio streams (DTS I believe), causing video to stutter terribly, and it's too low powered to properly utilize some of the more complex skins.

I'd hate to drop $300 on an Intel NUC, so I'm hoping an OUYA pans out. I'll do some more research...
 
so I bought a PS4 at launch and sold it two days later

A week after owning an xbox one I'm ready to bail out

Wii U/PC future?

Just need to give the PS4 time.

Spring is going to be great and I imagine Japanese support will be here in the Fall of 2014. Hoping for Final Fantasy XV myself though I can see that getting pushed.

You should have waited until fall 2014 to have bought a nextgen system.

Nov NPD is going to be nuts. Damn Iwata you screwed breh :\

So....

Nakazato confessions 3,4,&5
3) I have no game to speak of Im surprised that Im in a relationship now. Im that super nerdy guy that girls turn away from.

4) I wrote a 15 page hood movie in college. It was good when I wrote it.... Now looking back at it I'm ashamed.

5) I was always way over weight as a kid and it really hurt myself esteem. I got to a point I hated myself and ate back because I hate myself. I lost most of the weight in College only to gain more when I got back home.
