I love so much about the Wii. There is something about Nintendo's and their systems, it just seems no matter what I tend to like their systems better, both growing up and now. I think it has a lot to do with the games, especially since the Wii is the only system I always have a huge list of games I'm wanting.
I think the thing I love about Nintendo's systems is that they are different. I like to have the option of playing regular style games or doing something completely different and really experiencing something unique, this is even the case with the DS. I love the motion controls on the Wii, but as much as I like them, sometimes I just want to sit down and enjoy a traditional game and the Wii gives me that.
I find other systems keep changing but don't do much differently. Sure, we didn't get the best graphics ever with the Wii, but I'm happier having decent looking graphics (which I think are stunning in their own way) and a completely new way to game. With my PS3 and Xbox 360 I've got new systems, but the main thing that improved from the previous generation is the graphics. Sure, graphics are great and all, but I don't play games just for graphics. I'm not bashing the other systems, I like all my systems and they all have their good points and bad, but I just feel with Nintendo I was truly getting an upgrade and they really stepped out of the box with the Wii.
With Nintendo I find I'm also always excited with what they are going to do next. I loved the Gamecube and was excited to see what would come after it and it was a huge surprise and by far my favorite thing ever to come out of the gaming industry. So the ideas of what the future could hold really excite me and make me like Nintendo that much more. The only Nintendo system I have not owned since the NES was the N64 (also Gameboy Micro and DS original and the DSi, but I'm planning to get that) and my biggest concern with all my systems is not having them some day. With my other systems I obviously dont' want them to break, but I could deal with it, I would hate to lose my Wii and would have to replace it without question.
I think everyone finds companies they love, whether it is restaurants, clothing companies, stores, cars, etc. everyone has their favorites and ones they tend to stick to and always knwo they will get something good, for me that is Nintendo. I really love the Wii and there just isn't enough good things to say about it!
