Forum:The "Wii U" or "Whatever they re-name it" impact on the Allied Goal

Hello Guys & Gals! :)

First & foremost, I would like to welcome all of the new players to the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer community when the game gets released for the "Wii U" or "Whatever they re-name it" console. :)

Now, back to business. :) What kind of impact do you think that the inclusion of the "Wii U" or "Whatever they re-name it" console have on the Allied Goal of the N7 Operation Weekends?

Please understand that the following statement is not meant to be demeaning/mean in any way, shape, or form. I am just being realistic here guys and gals. :)

As far as I am concerned, I will still be playing a lot of Mass Effect 3 multiplayer by the time this game comes out for the "Wii U" or "Whatever the re-name it" console, but I sincerely hope that Bioware/EA takes the following into consideration when planning future "Allied Goals" after the new release.

(1) Unfortunately, I feel that that fan base for the Mass Effect 3 multiplayer community is approximately 50% of what it used to be on the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC since the launch of the game and I wouldn't be surprised if that number drops to 40% on all platforms; making achieving the "Allied Goal" even harder to complete. I am not going to lie, I will be playing significantly less Mass Effect 3 multiplayer because of "Hitman Absolution" and "Aliens Colonial Marines". I am personally not going to even bother with "Halo 4" because I don't care about the story anymore(I just wanted to see how the "Human vs Covenant" war ends; I love the original "Halo" trilogy. The new "Halo" game series will be equal to the "Gears Of War" series to me; as in "I'm not interested, sorry.)

(2) I definitely know that this game will sell on the new console, but I don't think that the number of people playing the multiplayer will be as high as when the game was released for the Xbox 360, PS3, and PC due to that fact that a good percent of current Mass Effect 3 multiplayer gamers will buy the "Wii U" or "Whatever they re-name it" console and stop playing on their existing platform. Thus, we have a shift, not new players. As far as actually getting "new players" into the multiplayer is concerned, I am afraid that there won't be enough to properly aid in the completion of the "Allied Goals"

In conclusion, I hope that Bioware/EA will be "realistic" about setting up the future "Allied Goals" for this awesome multiplayer game! :)
