I'd also like to add that in the UK at least, Nintendo has made it very clear that this is a NEW CONSOLE. Although their actors are as cringe-worthy as ever.
To any doubters, I have the Wii U, and although there are a few minor issues, the console, buy and large, is fantastic. I recommend it. |

It has never worked for me. People probably consider me an extremist when it comes to the Autism "cure" debate. People probably consider me just generally annoying too. Disappointing, but I've just had to learn to deal with it.  |

| As a teenager, I can tell you, yes, most other teenagers I know are mean, ignorant, insensitive, immature, thuggish, extremely discriminatory, hypocritical, and at times, downright evil. It is worth noting that all of the Autistic adolescents I know are ALL nice, decent people, whereas the same coul... |

| I think this will help with Autism Awareness by giving people a chance to walk in our shoes. I thought NTs didn't have any issues putting themselves in other people's shoes? I have found many NT's that say "I could never understand what it's like for you" and many other things in that area. I know ... |

No, but there is a room at my school for vulnerable individuals to have lunch, make friends, etc. How many Aspies did you meet at school? I've met eight people at school who I know are on ... |

| Although I do kind of feel sorry for him, what he did was absolutely disgusting and unforgivable, and now, we are suffering the terrible repercussions of his actions, which, admittedly is the fault of the ignorant NTs discriminating against us, but I am seriously upset and pissed off. |

| I find it very offensive, as it is used almost exclusively as a derogatory term for people with neurological differences/disabilities.
