Man, this is a tough question, i'm kinda outdated, by having only my PS3 and Wii, and some other consoles, but the only eight generation console i have is a 3DS, nothing else, so i was thinking in getting one of the eight generation main consoles which is the PS4, the Wii U and the Xbox One.
And no, don't recommend me the Xbox One, i don't like the policy of Microsoft with their games, the Xbox 360 and original were fine, but this Xbox one IMHO is a piece of crap that should be avoided, not because it has bad design or hardware, it's because the games for this console are so little interesting and, well, to resume, i don't care about this console.
And so, my only options left are the Wii U and the PS4, and man, this is one kinda tough to choose, compared to older generations, the Eight generation sure seems disappointing as hell, i am a retro gamer, so, i mostly play with SNES, PS1, PS2, sometimes Sega Saturn games, and man, it is me, or, everytime i see a game released people claim that a lot of new games aren't released fully, like, you buy a game for 50 or 60$, you come home, you play it and you're dissapointed by the little content you bought.
Most of the time, it seems like normal games aren't games anymore, if not, part of a game, and the DLC adds the rest of the story and content of that game, and some extras aswell, call me old fashioned, but i like full games, with no DLC'S, no prepromotion pack, postpromotion pack, super duper hyper ultra mega remix featuring dante from the devil may cry series & knuckles, i like that the games i buy are completed, and if you want some secrets or moves, you must do certain things during the game to unlock them, like, in a fighting game, if you want "x" secret character you must fight Arcade in Very Hard with all the 46 characters or some shit like that, when i see that a game has a lot of DLC's, and some of them completes the main story, i feel like i'm being insulted, a game (for me) should be like a movie in some aspects, when you finish a movie, you don't expect DLC's with that movie because the movie is already completed, and you can't do nothing to avoid that, for me, a game should be like that, you complete the game, you unlock all the secrets, and you have a good quantity of hours, that's the main essence of a videogame, because it's a work of hardware that exists to give a full show, but know how to close it properly.
It's not that DLC's are bad, the problem is that it creates a lot of insecurity, you don't know how the developers are going to make expand the game, or what kind of content they will add them, and that's for me the Eight Generation, for me, the most boring and dissapointing generation of all the videogames i've seen so far, the best selling titles are good, but meh, the good titles are meh, the bad titles are meh, the normal titles are meh, everything has been so meh, nothing really memorable.
Ironically, the best titles that call my atention aren't even made by third or first videogame professional companies, the best games i've played so far during this generation were Indie games, Megaman Unlimited was so kick ass, Rogue Legacy is amazing, Megaman X Corrupted will be the best fan game of any megaman X ever released, and the kickstart projects like Mighty No.9 and Bloodstained, so far, only those titles call a little my atention, and the announcement of Suikoden VI for the PS4, but as the main character of Suikoden Tierkreis would say: "I don't know until i try".
Anyway, with that out of the mind, i only have two choices left, or either pick a Wii U, or a PS4. I like both consoles, but their games are in a mix of meh with good, Splatoon calls a lot of my atention, and Bloodborne seems decent enough to play it, but, as i said before, i'm not really that "wow" with both consoles, the PS4 has a lot of titles that has or could be easily ported to the PS3, and the Wii U has (besides an awful control for videogames, with only 3 frickin hours to use), few titles of interest, outside of Marios, you only have few titles like Bayonetta 2, Wonderful 101 or Sonic Lost World, and Smash Bros. One of the games that put my hopes really high was with the announcement of "Smt vs Fe", i knew the kickass style of the main series, especially because those were the only featured on the trailer, and the great story FE has.
But everything changed when the trailer 1 attacked, and my god it put all of my hopes down, like a flush of the friggin toilet, seriously, having an idol happy song for the trailer, the anime design of the game looks like any generic Shounen anime that i've seen, and even though at one point it seems like a Wasteland, that one thing is probably close to the final events of the game, when you defeat the evil final boss, everything will go back to normal and idol happy, and i detest that kind of sh*t.
One game that could have been the best game of all time, Atlus turned into something like "Persona vs FE Awakening" and both fanbases know that those games are the most casual of the casual, anyway, so, speaking directly, even though this Eight Generation looks like a forgettable generation of games, i would like some advice, what should i buy, the PS4 or the Wii U, i'm kinda going with the Wii U even though all of it's shit, because it seems like a decent console, but i still don't know how hard the PS4 can hit, so, i hope your recommendations.
