I still have my PS4 and Xbox One pre-ordered from Amazon, and I plan on keeping those pre-orders. It appears that my Wii U and 3DS are going to get the most playtime this fall though. If Super Mario 3D World is anywhere near as good as Super Mario 3D Land, for the 3DS, then there may be no reason for me to even turn on the PS4 and Xbox One this Fall/Winter. The new Zelda for the 3DS is also going to take up a huge chunk of my time.
My PC is in a constant state of yearly upgrading so I didn't vote for that.
Getting the PS4, I have to support Sony doing things right from the very beginning. Also the last two generations both ended with me having larger Sony libraries and better memories of the system. Xbox 360 has left a really sour taste in my mouth with it's relative lack of quality exclusives over the last three years, the terrible dashboard changes that turn every page into ad riddled bullshit and even though I don't currently use either Live is just terrible compared to PS+ in terms of value.
I'll keep on using my PC whenever a game I want to play is available on it. Both consoles will eventually have exclusive games that I'll need to play, so I'll get those too.
Nothing at launch and probably not even for a few years.
I have a huge backlog of games to keep me busy on top of doing some achievement/trophy hunting when I'm in the mood for it. Out of the 3 I'd most likely get a Wii U/PS4 systems first given that the Wii U's exclusives are finally building up and PS4's price provides a less harsher barrier of entry on the wallet. However if the Xbox One has a killer line up of games within the first two years I may reconsider although I'd still be inclined to wait for a price drop and slimmer version of that thing.
But you can play that on PC when it launches. I wouldn't commit to the One just for a title that's not exclusive.Quote:

Day 1? Nothing.
Eventually? Everything.
Considering the business I am in, it's hard to say no when shiny new hardware is staring at you. In the end though, it's a fight between completely uninteresting libraries vs. that new car smell.
I'm very happy with the PC I built a couple months back. I'm fine giving up hard copies when the games are cheaper than physical and my graphics card can make them look better. The modding community also helps.
Considering I didn't pay for my 360, I don't see myself paying for a new console anytime soon. Shit I didn't really even pay for my xbox either.
Not a damn thing for now.
But later? PS4 in maybe a year, and Xbox One on a cold day in hell. No need for a new PC soon. Quad core 3.2 GHz + GTX 580 still can take anything I throw at it quite well- by the time I think of upgrading, the GTX 980 could be ready. Vita and Vita TV come before a new console/PC at this time.
Right now? Nothing, unless you count the Wii U (which I don't.) Eventually, probably a PC or Steambox, depending on how that works out. I can see myself buying a PS4 eventually when it's below $300 and has some good exclusives, and I can't see me buying a Xbone ever.
