--- Quote from: Beastman1975 on December 05, 2012, 01:47:04 PM ---i have 1 gripe with the wii u and any other products that do this , PLEASE STOP USEING GLOSSY BLACK PLASTIC FOR YOUR SYSTEMS !! IT SHOW UP EVERY DAMN FINGERPRINT/SMUDGE/SCRATCH!!! no matter what i do it just doesnt look clean !!! other than that im happy mith my purchase , if they had had a color option to go woth the 32gig i wouldve chosen white it doesnt show smudges as bad lol --- End quote --- Yeah I actually agree with this. This is my only real complaint with the system. I don't really like anything glossy anymore. |

^^^ You would think that Microsoft and Nintendo would've learned from Sony with that one. EVERYONE bitched about the high gloss finish on the original PS3. Looks great for 5 minutes. Then you touch it and dust happens. It doesn't hide either. High gloss white is better, but we all know the color of "high tech and sleek" is black not white :( I don't think it would've mattered if they "partnered" with anyone. It's most likey a matter of numbers. How many units totally are gonna end up in Poland? I feel that's the number one issue. Without the high volume like the US would have (not to mention our struggling economy), the relative high distribution cost per unit needs to be offset, which unfortunately means higher MSRP :( |

The gloss black is horrible at showing fingerprints. Thankfully I have mine in an area that you don't really see the console itself in full light, but the faceplate of the gamepad is the same way and I keep that displayed on top of my console shelving so it receives full light and full reflection and it's just one giant fingerprint smudge already. Guess I'm going to have to break out the white gloves before playing NSMBU from now on. :p |

Normally if it were a handheld, I'd say they plan to release a matte finish version. When I first saw the 3DS, I knew there would be a second design that was more comfortable and matte finished, and sure enough they did with 3DS XL. But since it's a console and a special controller that is tied to that system, I don't know if there will be a redesign. We didn't really see one with N64 or GameCube, and the 2 Wii redesigns barely count. |

Speaking of redesigns, I love that both Nintendo and Sony have both officially released Xbox 360 copycat controllers of their own LOL! At least they aren't denying that it's a great design. |
