Sounds like a pretty unenthralling launch, both hardware and game wise.

I been reliving the DC launch last week or so because I'm that nerdy. Reading the mags playing some Shenmue then playing the hoard of Demo discs. My fanboyism for the DC has led me to always be amazed how awesome the thing is. So fucking ahead of it's time.

A lot of gamers on forums have moved on to PC gaming because they are fed up with the current consoles and feel they are holding games back. Its hardly clinging on to the consoles simply cause they point out that not everything in the WiiU is an upgrade on them.

Making me relive that is ban worthy.

True. Though I wonder what people specifically mean with "holding games back". I know that there are some who think that it makes them "true" gamers.
But lately I've been replaying many older games and still think that some are better than many current games. The big difference is the visuals and sound of course. So it feels like this is what many mean when they talk about holding back : the audiovisual aspect.
Some of my best experiences this year were Journey and The Walking Dead on PS3 actually and I didn't think for a second that the console might be holding back the creator's vision. I just got into the games instead.

Like you said, similar to the PS3 it's more or less a hardware launch. The technology seems solid at the very least, bugs aside.
Wii U Premium owners must spend £62.50 on the system's eShop to receive their £5 voucher for future purchases.
Nintendo UK has revealed that for every pound or euro spent on the eShop you'll earn 8 points. After saving up 500 points (when you spend £62.50/€62.50) you can apply for a £5 discount code.
The offer was first announced as a ten per cent discount for Premium owners.
One of the advantages of having a Premium console is being part of this Nintendo Network Premium loyalty scheme. Another is the Premium system's larger hard drive - the Basic 8GB version has only 3GB of usable space.
Users are able to plug in an external USB hard drive for more room. The Wii U currently recognises devices up to 2TB in size, although Nintendo plans to address this in a December system update.
Confusingly, the update will only allow the Wii U to recognise and use devices larger than 2TB up to the existing 2TB limit. If you have a 3TB drive then the remaining terabyte will not be available to use.
