Am I the only one that won't move on to the next generation?

Yep, no hard copy of game, no case & no manual -> Quality same as on pirated games -> Not worth getting legit games.

I've never bought a Microsoft or Sony console at launch, never will since most the games on either console are not interesting to me, I traded two PSP's for my 360.
There is just a whole lot of greatness going on with the Wii U.
I've already pre-ordered Zombi U!

So far only game that interest me are New Super Mari bros U and future Zelda game... so not in any hurry on getting Wii U at the moment.
Superchop:
I agree with you in that all 3 companies are trying to push digital downloads but I don't think that many people will really adapt well to it.  As it stands there really is no "benefit" to downloading a full game compared to buying a tangible copy.  Price being one of them and another major one is that a single download will be limited to the gamer tag and most likely not playable anywhere else as compared to an actual disc.

Then I can only imagine how well people with monthly caps or slow download speeds will handle d/ling 8+ gigs of data for a single game.

Not to say that it can't and won't be implemented...but there have to be a lot of changes in the way it'll be handled to be a success.

What about Nintendo Land? Pikmin 3? Zombi U? I mean, I don't normally see strong line ups, the Wii U's is impressive.

I don't see Nintendo switching to digital only any time soon.  I would freaking hate that, caseless game collection.....*shudders*

Nobody will in the next generation.  They can't.  There are just too many customers that won't have ANY access to games if they were to do that, and they obviously don't want to lose customers.
