Bleszinski thinks Wii U is neat, believes skeptical gamers will purchase the console

Cliff Bleszinski continues to throw his support towards Wii U. The Gears of War creator likes the idea of being able to play a console game on the controller and also believes that those who have been hateful of the system thus far will eventually purchase it. Bleszinski made a… somewhat humorous remark when discussing how you’ll be able to take the game with you even if there isn’t a television in sight:
“From what I’ve seen, it looks pretty cool. It seems like you can stream your game from your television directly to your [tablet] controller, so if you have irritable bowel syndrome, or a small bladder, you can still play it in the toilet. That’s great. But, you know, from what people are saying online, they’re like, ‘Oh, it’s just a DreamCast, whatever.’ But it’s like, ‘Dude, what’s old is new sometimes.’ The Power Glove [back on NES] led to the Wii, right? The Virtual Boy led to the 3DS, right? A lot of these older technologies that you forget about are [the technological predecessors]. The Kinect is a sophisticated webcam, right? So I’m just dying to see it. It’s Nintendo. I’ll buy it. I know I’ll buy it. They’ll (skeptical gamers) talk sh*t but they’ll buy it.”
