Has anyone ventured out of the cousy wii forums we have come to call home? Well I'll tell you what you'll find, Xbox 360 and PS3 forums talking about what games are comming out what they hope is done with the future of the console, what is cool and positives about the console for the most part.

The Nintendo Wii forums is by far burndened with the most amount of critisism threads such as: "Why did I buy this?", "What sucks about the wii and why?", "Howcome there are no good games?", "Wii's online sucks" , "Im selling my wii for a 360" threads. i know this is true for all forums for each console but you'll find by far the most of these console rant forums concerning the wii on the wii forums, on a given day.

Is this how its always going to be? Grow up.

Most of us here dont give a crap, each console has its pros and cons, focusing on the cons makes us forgett about what is good about the Wii. cons + cons + cons + ctrisism + cons...etc = negative atmosphere. The wii has been launched, we all know what it can do and cant do, take it or leave it, there will be NO major dramatic changes to the wii overnight. If your not satisfied with the wii's success i reccomend bottleing up your cristisms that you think nintendo is reading but your fooling yourself cause they dont give a damn and stay tuned for the Super Nintendo 64.

The wii meets all my needs and 1 console per gen is how i role, dont convince me otherwise, your wasteing your time.

STOP putting th CON in CONsole, Grow up.

its not a con for nintendo. nor do i hate them. why would i post here if i saw so many flaws in nintendo and the Wii? and why would i buy one? i just dont see why this thread needed to be made when theres nothing to discuss.

Well a lot of the times people just want to express their unsatisfaction to random users like themselves rather than complain to the company. Yea, I can see that there's been criticism and all that crap but most of the time, its anything but that. it's almost like you're saying this stuff happens too often.

how does "I hate the wii, buying a 360" , "Why are there no good wii games?" help the nintendo wii get better

game trailers picked twilight princess over oblivion as game of the year 2006 and mario galaxy over halo 3 for game of the year 2007. Two non biased nintendo victories in a row clearly the games dont suck, stop the CONS.

Personally, I really like the wii, so I can look past the negative topics. Also, criticism can be a good thing at times and can bring new ideas.

That's the reason people hate the Wii. They were emotionally invested in the Wii sucking and it didn't happen. No amount of logical arguments will sway someone if their opinion is based on emotion.

700 titles of shovelware that is

anyway the wii is awsome and all, but I guess it's different in america. seriously if not the 10+ some quality games for the wii so far, then it's the VC, an incredibly smart choice by Nintendo. I just wish that Sony refined or will refine their crappy ass network and give us great games like Nintendo

i agree that people in this forum whine too much. Plus, the Wii has only been out for a little more than a year and is still in the process of gaining back some of the support Nintendo lost the last few generations. It will take some time but some great games are on the horizon. Like the TC said in one of his posts, the wii isn't going to change overnight.

Plus, while people are getting sick of "I hate my Wii" or Trading my Wii for a 360", I AM SICK AS HELL OF THREADS ABOUT "WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET A HEADSET", OR WHY THE WII IS NOT GOING TO HAVE A HEADSET" OR HEADSET THIS AND HEADSET THAT"... sorry, just venting a bit.

Why do we pick on the Wii??? That's an easy one. We all know Nintendo can do better than they are doing, and the Wii has no intention of doing better if you ask me! Nintendo is only working on SSBB, which I know will be good, but you can't make any game perfect!

What my point is is that the Wii can't get good games out, but we all expect good games. That is why we make fun of the Wii!

As a Nintendo fanboy, this topic disgusts me!!!

This is bull! I'm sick of everyone saying, "Well I'm getting a 360 for Christmas," and, "The Wii sucks!" This topic makes me mad!!!

We all know that the Wii has some flaws, and that the 360 is better, AT THE MOMENT!!! YOU HAVE TO GIVE THE WII SOME TIME!!!

THE 360 IS PROBABLY THE CONSOLE THAT HAS BEEN AMAZING THE FASTEST!!! THINK ABOUT IT!!!

I'm one of the ones who is trying to debunk common myths and such. I get really fed up with the complainers, to be honest.

But at the same time, I have accepted that this is how it's going to be. People compare the Wii to the other consoles and see things missing. But they're forgetting that Nintendo is obviously going in a different direction this gen, and some things might get left behind or postponed.

There's nothing any of us can do, and that bothers a lot of people. I think that's what it boils down to. However, there are some of us (like you and I) who have either accepted it, or just don't care enough to let it bother us.

Good post, by the way. I mean, why can't we just enjoy the Wii for what it is and move on? The positive vastly outweigh the negatives, so for the most part, I'm content.
