Wow. Both games look terrible.

The star cursor thing with SMG is incredibly annoying and a terrible gameplay gimmick. I can't believe this was hailed as a great game.

Brawl seems to be a lot like Melee. Bunch of junk dropping all over the place and lame attacks.

After playing each for about 3 minutes I give them both a 5 out of 10.

It's kind of sick and sad how highly these garbage games are reviewed. It just shows you how much nostalgia driven hype fuels Nintendo reviews.

If this is the best Wii has to offer I guess I will have to live without NMH even though I am a big fan of Suda San.

I estimate 35 seconds. As an added bonus I reckon he came in with negative perceptions which I believe is a -10 second penalty as well, so 25 seconds. There's also a chance he was counting quickly. If we take his 3 minutes and it out into non-fanboy time I think it comes to maybe even less...possible 2.5 seconds instead of 25 (I assume you divide like that?).

damn my math.

I just find them both tremendously overrated and dated. Having Mario run around upside down in strange gravity waving a pointer around to collect items you throw at stars. I'd rather eat poison sumac.

As for Brawl I never liked Melee so I wasn't expecting much but when I can't even get the character to jump consistently when I press up on the stick I find that to be BROKEN. The graphics looked really washed out. Not good at all.

I am sick of Nintendo getting a pass on this kind of stuff.

It's great to hear your opinion!!! I'm glad you had to do it the most fanboyist way to make yourself look even more ignorant.

and what does the TV have to do with anything?

Sorry, SMG is one of the best games out there. I can't even agree with your argument one bit...

yes but smg doesnt deserve goty and ssbb isnt perfect. in reality i believe they deserve a 8.5 and a 9. in reverse order. i didnt find them to be any improvement as it was the same crap from melee and sm64 just with better graphics and a few more things thrown in.

The mere fact that you even mention the games looking "terrible" is stupid, they're Wii games they aren't supposed to impress with looks (even though Mario Galaxy looks better artistically than most games out there) we know that on a huge TV that 480 can look quite bad at times no need to point that out if you don't like it get the component cables so you can have a sharper image, also how about not calling it gimmicky for once and try playing it with your mind set on having fun insted of having your mind set on nitpicking, the star thing may be a minor annoyance to some people and I can see that but it can't possibly ruin the game for you, and in brawl if you don't like items turn them off, but you can't possibly relate it to melee, it's much more balanced, fast paced, and has more variety. I doubt you even played either of them. /rant

Haha. Funny. Last time I checked the Wii could only do 480i. PS3 has the most games at 1080P native, and PC can play at any resolution as long as the monitor supports it.

Bottom line:

Sheep, I wouldn't be talking. You're at the bottom of the food chain.

err even if you put on gears or COD4 on that 73 inch TV, you will see jaggies and blurry textures. Hell, even the PC would suffer graphical imperfections.

LOL, well, at least you dug the tv, right?:P As far as your assessment of recent Nintendo first party titles, they have absolutely no appeal for me either. I cannot say much about what they should have been scored though, as I have not played them.

Although, I am eventually going to pick up a Wii, but there are only 2 games right now for it that I want to play, and that is No More Heroes, and the upcoming Mushroom Men: The Spore War, by indie devs Red Fly Studio. Both are extremely off the wall, tripped out, and completely original games. Hopefully the Wii will continue to get more games along those lines, and I will have one sooner, rather than later.

Wow. Both games look terrible.

The star cursor thing with SMG is incredibly annoying and a terrible gameplay gimmick. I can't believe this was hailed as a great game.

Brawl seems to be a lot like Melee. Bunch of junk dropping all over the place and lame attacks.

After playing each for about 3 minutes I give them both a 5 out of 10.

It's kind of sick and sad how highly these garbage games are reviewed. It just shows you how much nostalgia driven hype fuels Nintendo reviews.

If this is the best Wii has to offer I guess I will have to live without NMH even though I am a big fan of Suda San.

From GS review:

"You could probably swap in just about any other characters from practically any other franchise, and this would still be a phenomenally fun game. "

1. its a wii game, you expected it to look great on a big ass TV like that? especily without componate cables.

2. brawl is a lot more balanced and has more charecters and new stages, sounds like most other fighting games so that point is null. the only difference is the items, and you can turn those off if you don't like them.

3. please try to make your flamebait not so obvious.

4. all the above is assuming you actualy played the games...even then 3 minutes isen't enough to get to the tutorial level in galaxy. and you need to get past good egg galaxy before it starts getting a bit less cute and a bit more chalenging.

Im in the same boat but not because the games are ugly. I used to be a Nintendo fan until the Wii. i even beared through GC because of SSBM and MKDD but not anymore. SMG was ok. But SSBB almost made me cry it was that bad. Its exactly like Melee except for that fact that its system's controller sucks for it. So you do what? Revert to GCN controls. Isnt that sad that a system touted for its innovative controller ends up having to use its preceeding system's controls for its biggest release thus far? I find that incredibly sad.

I sold my Wii back in thanksgiving after i found out SSBB was going to be delayed to get a PS3. Ive enjoyed it then SSBB came out and i was like hmmm i loved SSB and SSBM. So i bought a new Wii (my 4th one) and SSBB. Played it for a night and wanted to kill it. Not only was the online play impossible, but the controls stink. The gameplay isnt any different from SSBM the environments are nice. Subspace Emisseary is junk the cutscenes look like something from FF6 on a HDTV. Its just a disappointment. I dont think anything can save nintendo for real gamers who grew up playing great games like Super Mario Bros and SSB. This is a sad day for all.

Yeah just like Halo3, Call of Duty 4, Oblivion, Tom Clancy's Rainbow six downtown china alley #8698686, Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy XIII Versus, Final Fantasy XIII Dissidia, Virtua Fighter 5, Virtua Fighter 5 Online, Grand theft auto 4, Half-Life 2: remake#10, Unreal Tournament 3, Ratchet and Clank, Burnout Paradise, Metal Gear Solid 4: Guns of Patriots, Metal Gear Online, Grand Turismo 5, Grand Turismo 5: Prologue, Grand Turismo 5: Context, Grand Turismo 5: Conclusion, Grand Turismo 5: Index. Need to go on?

Can you name two games out of those that have added as much features as SSBB? NONE! If you come to look at it there has only been only 3 REAL Mario 3D Platformers and 1 2D platformers over 3 platforms only 1 each, and the SSB franchise has only made 3, when other franchises have spawned already 5 reincarnations(even final fantasy since FF7) some only through 2 generations only.

thank you for your opinion, please note it is wrong :P

grafics < gameplay

whats so wrong with using a traditional controler for a genre that is not ready for motion controls?

the gameplay is generaly similer because its the same seris :/ but it is by no means the same

most enjoyed the SSE, again thank you for your opinion, but don't state it as fact.

most would say its a great day to be a gamer, all it takes is avoiding the shovelware that ALL consoles get *don't kid yourself, all of them have shovelware* guess it sucks to be you if you hate fun and like looking at the prety pictures.

Edit: Damn you glitchspot.
