Wii U Sees Huge Sales Following Xbox One Reveal

Fri, 24 May 2013 13:55:00 -0500

The Xbox One reveal may have enticed the casual consumers, but the gamers sure felt like they were left in the dust. A whole lot of satire also popped up after the reveal, some saying the conference was largely about Kinect again (though it does play a larger role on this console), stuff about TV, music, etc, but not enough games. Where were the games? Aside from Forza 5 and Call of Duty: Ghosts?

So, hardcore gamers caught on, not liking what they saw (and what came after the reveal) and decided to give Microsoft the "talk to the hand" gesture. In their collective eyes,

Furthermore, GameStop asserts they'll have a promising position in the sales of PlayStation 4 and Xbox One than compared to other

Epic Mickey 2 Drops On Vita June 18

It's no mystery that Disney Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two sold poorly when it released late last year. Because of it, developer Junction Point was sadly shutdown. But if you consider yourself an avid handheld gamer, and you have a Vita, you might want to look into it when the game releases on June 18. Sadly, I picked up the Wii U version and I have nothing but criticism on top of more criticism to say about that version of the game. However, I have played the other versions of the game and it's not so bad.

Even if it's something to pass the time until the iconic mouse gets back on his feet in the

Were you wondering what the Xbox One game cases would look like? Forza 5 has already got the concept out the window. This was spotted on the official Forza Motorsport Twitter page. With the shift of the Xbox One using Blu-Ray Discs, the new Xbox One case looks similar to the aforementioned. That's another minor Xbox One mystery out of the way.
