So i was on youtube and then i found these

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np1JRE9Uwm8&feature=related

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6TWzRfQZKzk&feature=related

I just started to remember how awesome the wii was back then

then i started looking at the current state of the wii and its just bad..

i know 2010 is going to be an awesome year but i feel nintendo has been very lazy and i completely agree with that ign article that says nintendo is becoming lazy

http://wii.ign.com/articles/105/1054621p1.html

with all the crap their making like wii music and all the stupid new play control games i am honestly just sad of what the wii has become

(sorry this should have been a blog, i just relized that)

There's no denying that 09 was arubbish year for Nintendo. But i think your being a bit harsh. What about all the great games being released near the end of the year, and there were some good games released too, like Little Kings story for example.. And Wii Music is actually a prettygood game when you learn how it works.

What about Wii Sports Resort and NSMB? Nintendo has always brought only a trickle of first-party software, so that's nothing new at all.

and letting publishers send out crapits_a_username

Nintendo's not going to start telling publishers what they can and can't make. That's terrible business and could only hurt the industry. Bad developers aren't suddenly going to make good games because Nintendo told them to. It can't possibly work that way.

I guess if you limit yourself to only playing first party games then yah the Wii isn't doing too hot, but should be good again in 2010.

Now if you also play 3rd party games Wii has had such a great 09 that I think it's Wii's best year.

I kinda also agree with TC. The Wii definitely was not as hot as Nintendo made it out to be. But then again, what is as hot as the hype foretells? I'm keeping the Wii for the JRPGs coming our way though. Might get SMBWii, maybe Dragon Age, or maybe none.

I think a lot of us forget what it was like, 20+ years ago with the videogame industry.

Unless you had a serious degree in computer programming and spoke C++, forget about a career in videogame productions. It was a pipe dream for most of us.

Our peers would scoff at us when we said that we wanted to have anything to do with videogames, skateboards, comic booksor any other "toy"as a profession.

Technology has gone bananas over the past 15 years. We live in a different world now that allows a vast market to open, and with the constantly revolving doors we see more extreme levels of the good and the bad come and go.

And even 15-25 years ago, we had headache games come along each year, but nobody wants to remember them, so nobody talks about them. How about the Bible Adventure series for the NES? Or what about the Power Glove and Virtual Boy? When things get experemental, they tend to see more flaws before perfection is acheived.

I was slightly dissapointed with the number of good releases, but that's not to say we had none for the system this year and I'm always wishing for Nintendo to push the limits of their controller layout in tastefully creative format that isn't always silly. Metroid Prime 3 was a beautiful example of that.

Next year will be better. Well, hopefully. I think Metroid Other M and Super Mario Galaxy 2 will make up for this year's shortcomings. The problem with Nintendo is that they're games come out to few and far between.

Also, don't forget about Punch-Out. That was a great game. And Metroid Prime Trilogy.

And I say just get a 360 or PS3 to get your gaming fix and just enjoy the Wii. Great advice right?

I remember how excited I was when I first got my Wii. Wii Sports was so fun to play with the virtual controls and all. But I honestly haven't bought many Wii games since then. Nothing has really peaked my interest. I own more Virtual Console games than I do Wii games. If it wasn't for the Virtual Console, I probably would have sold my Wii a long time ago.

2009 wasn't the best "Nintendo" year, but it was easily the best year the Wii has had.

Seriously...to say 2009 was a dissapointment is saying you were probably expecting too much from the beginning.

I really don't understand why people say this year was an abomination. It wasn't the best year the year had, but it wasn't bad. I've had plenty of games to play all the time.

wii thrid party does suck n its because nintendo took away the seal of quality and replaced it with the seal of nintendo(check your n64 games and the older gamecube games)

this means nintendo doesnt have to check on the final product before the company releases it

The "Seal of Quality" mostly meant that a game, wearing the seal, had been licenced by Nintendo. The "Quality" part had little to do with the game. And open your eyes, there are plenty of good third party games on the Wii. I mentioned Silent Hill already, but there are Little King's Story, Dead Space: Extraction, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Muramasa to name a few, and these are games only released this year.

Have you played any of these?

I'm disappointed with Nintendo's performance too... I'd really like them to create new IP's and show everyone what Wii can really do when its in the right hands. I know we've had little games like Swords & Soliders and You, Me and the Cubes but I really think they need to do more. Thankfully, this year has been pretty good for third parties (Klonoa, Madworld, Deadly Creatures, HOTD:OK, Dead Space: Extraction etc) so they've kept me busy.

1. The NPC! titles were meant to allow newbies at gaming who hadn't owned a GameCube to play some of the game last gen that could get possible sequels, so that if they decided to expand a series like Pikmin, which they are doing with number three, then the noobs (which are many) that own a Wii could have an opportunity to have played the first game in that respective series. Because really; what new gamer is gonna' go out and buy Pikmin 3 if they haven't had an opportunity to play the original Pikmin?

2. Wii Music wasn't rubbish; it was just too hard for everyone, so people started whining and started blaming the game itself for their musical shortcomings.

Funny how you actually haven't given any of these games a try.;)

All your reasons for not playing those games are basically assumptions, and that in itself is fail if you're actually wanting to buy a good Wii game.

P.S. Look at Little King's Story's ESRB rating, and tell me that game is kiddish. I dare you.

Sure, if it wasn't there, it might have a more family-friendly rating,but it is. "Could've"' 's are pretty pointless when the facts are being presented right before your eyes, are they not?;)

Muramassa great game and yes i like it but its one of those games you play once

carter15kd5

Get a new console lol.

I mean seriously if those are your reasons for passing on a game, then get a different platform.

"There is no combat all you do is run."
"I feel it wont hold my attention (doesn't mean it is good)"
:lol:

y get a new console when i already have a pc and a 360 and lol this is your responds to everyone you can agree with

and yes those reason alone more then justify not buying a game

i oh most feel sorry for you not playing great aaa games for stupid reasons silent hill is getting nearly 8.0 reviews from most real gaming community web sites, and little kings story is a little childish looking but its one of the most channeling games out this year on any system and not liking dead space because you call rain gun shooters not a game type of game sorry to burst that but they have been around for nearly 20 years and by now they have been established as a real type of game

I've never seen anyone mourn a console that's still a current machine before... Strange.so_hai

My thoughts exactly, I see the Wii as more an outlet for nostalgia and casual gaming with a hint of classic series revivals (AKA new Mario, Zelda... etc) than a next-gen console. If you're a gamer by hobby and can only own one console this gen it'd be a huge mistake (maybe the biggest you ever make) if you choose the Wii as the one and only console to own. Those who play games as a hobby this gen either own a 360/PS3 alone or own a Wii with one of the other two (excluding those who own all three, I think they're the minority for now).

Let me re-phrase that, if you're a gamer almost to the point of hardcore but not quite there and above.... *repeats his point mentioned on previous post*.

There's no denying that 09 was arubbish year for Nintendo. But i think your being a bit harsh. What about all the great games being released near the end of the year, and there were some good games released too, like Little Kings story for example.. And Wii Music is actually a prettygood game when you learn how it works.

I think he's mainly talking about first party efforts, and in that sense he's right. I love my Wii and I love a good Nintendo game on my Wii. But they have been very lazy after Brawl. It's been a long wait for Sin and Punishment 2, I'll tell you that. I'd say Punch-Out!! was probably the most significant game Nintendo published this year as it was the only game that even tried to show off with a decent presentation. New Super Mario Bros. Wii, Wii Sports Resorts, Wii Fit Plus and ExciteBots all look really dated in terms of graphics AND presentation. And I don't mean compared to Xbox 360 games or anything, but in terms with OTHER WII GAMES. Nintendo has a great line-up for 2010 with Galaxy 2, Metroid and Sin & Punishment 2, hopefully with Zelda as well. But I doubt they're even going to show much that's new for the year even after those games.

It's taking serious third-party effort like No More Heroes 2 and Tatsunoko VS. Capcom to make the Wii a viable option as a lot of third parties are really, genuinely stepping it up for the system these days. But Nintendo themselves do need to step it up a little bit in terms of giving more quality games per year and to not get so lazy with presentation and graphics. I know the Wii isn't the most powerful system out there, but Namco Bandai's remake of Klonoa looks so much better than New Super Mario Bros. Wii and that game is supposed to be the one that's the holiday anchor for the system.

I guess I'm behind with the times, forums don't seem to be the place to share personal opinions anymore. Either that or the world got really rude while I was gone.

[QUOTE="carter15kd5"]

wii thrid party does suck n its because nintendo took away the seal of quality and replaced it with the seal of nintendo(check your n64 games and the older gamecube games)

this means nintendo doesnt have to check on the final product before the company releases it

carter15kd5

The "Seal of Quality" mostly meant that a game, wearing the seal, had been licenced by Nintendo. The "Quality" part had little to do with the game. And open your eyes, there are plenty of good third party games on the Wii. I mentioned Silent Hill already, but there are Little King's Story, Dead Space: Extraction, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, Muramasa to name a few, and these are games only released this year.

Have you played any of these?

silent hill is dumb all u do is run and there is no combat

little kings story haven played it looks childish and i feel it wont hold my attention(doesnt mean it is good)

Dead space i rather play a real game rather then a rail shooter

cod its a wii fps and so far wii fps have sucked compared to the other consoles in the online which is the most important part

lack of wii speak lack of community wii isnt good for fps game nor for online play

Muramassa great game and yes i like it but its one of those games you play once

So a game without combat and the usual gameish stuff is automatically dumb? How about the fact that the game is the most athmospheric game this year, or that the story is better than anything released this generation?

I don't feel like defending Little King's Story after reading you argument. I realize that there's no point in trying to make you "see" what's so great about it because you're obviously a shallow gamer.

Play Cod: Modern Warfare (especially online) and come back and say that.
