While Sony and Microsoft are showcasing and flaunting their upcoming next-gen gaming line-ups for the Playstation 4 and Xbox One respectively, Nintendo isn’t that impressed by what’s on offer from its competitors.

When asked about why someone should choose the Wii U over its rivals, Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime said the other options aren’t as attractive as what Nintendo has in store.

“It’s all about the games. The competitive systems have announced their launch lineups. I’m allowed to say ‘Meh,’” Fils-Aime said.

“I look at our lineup of titles and I feel good about our lineup. We’ve got Zelda. We’ve got Mario. We’ve got Donkey Kong. In addition to great titles like Pikmin 3 and Wonderful 101, I feel very good about our lineup, and I feel very good about the value proposition we’re putting out there for the consumer.”

Who’s upcoming line-up do you think is the best – Nintendo, Sony, or Microsoft?

Nintendo has also recently unveiled the 2DS handheld consoles, along with a price from for the Wii U.
