Yes, I will buy the Wii U. I'm thinking it will be the first system I ever purchase on launch day. Everywhere cynics around me are stating that the system is bound to fail, however, I believe otherwise. With titles like Darksiders II, Aliens: Colonial Marines, Ninja Gaiden III, Batman Arkham City, Assassin's Creed III and more bound for it, everything looks set for the traditional gamer audience. I'm loving it!
That being said, after the Wii and its overwhelmingly casual crowd, I enter with some doubts. Hopefully the Wii U will live up to all of its aspirations.
