1. It gets way more credit then it deserves. Its not really that inovative, its like a mix between the power glove and the old duck hunt guns.

2. Its bringing down the entire idustry imo. now the systems who are actully pushing the limits of technology and trying to making something new are pretty much being told that there losing to the gimic that people who dont play video games can relate to

3. It dosn't work!, this drives me more nuts then anything else. No matter what game I play or how well i set the sensor up or anything, alllllways the pointer will jump around eraticly, or the movements dont register (or really slow), or a simple movement like a twitch works 10x the reall movement as say a full swing.

4. Shaking my hand is not better then a button

5. No online, and even when it does come out, I bet you anything it will suck... why do i say this?.

A) It takes like 5-10 minutes just to connect to the browser, or the store

B) Friend Codes

C) Nintendos first attempt,

6. There is no game that you just chill back in a couch and play, with the wii you are constatly having to make sure your remote is pointing at the tv, and nothing gets in the way. Also for many games if your left hand starts to tilt your screen starts zooming alover the dam place.

Also, dont just say "you probably have only played bad games", I own every game for the wii except maybe 3 or 4

In conclusion, I dont regret buying my Wii, it still can be fun, but for the reasons sateted above, I hate it.

Lets see if I can counter everyone of these before this thread is locked... because it is obvious flamebait.

1. Because the PS3 and XBOX 360s same way of play are any more innovative. [sarcasm]The same formula being used with upgraded horepower! YAY HOW FUN! [/sarcasm]

2. Since when does graphics and horepower make a game fun? I don't see anything new in terms of gameplay coming from a lot of the titles. Most of them are the same 'ole, same 'ole covered up with pretty graphics.

3. That hasn't happened to me before. Try adjusting your sensitivity.

4. Maybe you like pressing buttons to get your character on screen to do something. I do, too, but I prefer the motion sensing; it's a lot more natural.

5. Oh, I want a ride into your time machine where this is proven! WOO FOR TIME MACHINES!

6. I chill on the couch and play Wii Sports...

Ummm... It's a Wii board, what do you expects? One thing you should know about "fanboys", once you insult their console, you're insulting their "manhood", It's like a kick in the balls.

Yeah, I'm not going to 'discuss' with someone who claims to own EVERY Wii game except 3 or 4. That was just a red flag right there - you're full of crap and just trying to start trouble.

Hmmm... *reads forum title* Yup, I'm pretty sure this is the Wii forum and you post a topic stating your disdain for the Wii. Take it to System Wars, troll.

Yeah, anyone who doesn't like trolls is a fanboy. Gimme a break.

Why I Hate These Threads:

1. They get way more replies than they deserve.

2. They're bringing the quality of the entire forums down.

3. They don't work! People don't listen to you seriously when you say you hate an expensive item that they own and probably cherish.

That's all I've got. The System Wars forum was created for bashing consoles, because we know that not everyone is completely satisfied with all of them. Also, it's obvious that you're not going to be convinced to not hate your Wii, so there's really no room for discussion in this thread.
