yes it does..it has the highest rated game this gen as a bonus 2:)

[QUOTE="SilentlyMad"]

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"] Its common knowledge they are going after the casual market. The casual market buys games like Cooking Mama and Just Dance, instead of Zelda or Mass Effect. I've yet to meet anyone in real life thats actually heard of Mass Effect (except my brother)killab2oo5

Here is some links I have found

They have shown around 3 games total and you act like you know the whole library. I would not talk about rocket science since you seem to not even know the games at all but act like you do. Why not wait and see what they release. There was the breakout type game were you hit the balls.

[QUOTE="anshul89"]The wii doesn't have any high quality games and look at how well it's selling.

on gamespot yea it is...metacritic i dont think so last time i checked

I predict that Natal will have quite a few problems at launch, there will be a lot of complaints from people that it's not working as well.

[QUOTE="killab2oo5"]

It's doesn't take rocket science to see that Natal is clearly aimed towards the casual market.

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"][QUOTE="farnham"] yeah but i also dont think that microsoft can make anything that has the impact of wii sports or wii fitMario1331

How are these any more detailed than Mario?

Very true that is all we know of the library which is 3 games with one being Burnout Paradise and you were the one claiming it is not rocket science to know every single game would be for the super casuals. Also never said Katamari was complex but people sure semed to brag how great it was when it was exclusive.

SilentlyMad

"Fanboys" brag about anything that's exclusive...look at Last Rebellion.

[QUOTE="SilentlyMad"]If it is such common knowledge then can you show links were they are only going after the casual market for example a statement from MS saying this?

Wow, that looks horrible to play (burnout).

I wonder what would be people's tone if Sony said Move will sell "millions and millions".TintedEyes

I'm sure it will sell dramatically, but I hope the software stays relevant. I haven't purchased a Wii yet, because of the motion control setup, and I have my doubts on how all this is going to be implemented into the games of Microsoft's console. I have my fingers crossed and I hope they do sell millions, just don't ruin solid franchises with ridiculous motion waggle!

i`ll buy it, looks fun and it can be used for more then just games. so thats a bonus. incase i dont like the games

so people are expecting a wii sports clone to sell 50 million units.. lol @ you

[QUOTE="tomarlyn"][QUOTE="R3FURBISHED"]All depends on the games, everything else is just icing.R3FURBISHED

Yes. if you look at the rated scores of the Wii's library by game critics, it doesnt touch the 360 or PS3's. that doesnt stop it from being easily the most successful console.

[QUOTE="R3FURBISHED"][QUOTE="tomarlyn"] Its aimed at non-gamers not us, so our definition of a quality game will mean nothing. Look at the Wii.MellowMighty

Microsoft has pretty high hopes for Natal, that much is certain. In fact, Aaron Greenberg claims it's not just going to sell millions, but "millions and millions".

"Our focus for launch [for Natal] is on original experiences, built from the ground up," the Microsoft product director said in an interview for Edge's April issue."We believe that's important because the first impression has to be a magical one.

"But because we expect millions and millions of these things to be sold this Christmas, over time developers will know millions of customers have these sensors so they can add functionality to theirgames."

"So you may see hybrid approaches, but our initial focus is on those unique experiences."

Natal is slated for launch towards the end of the year.

Maybe Sony should be scared...perhaps Natal is the "final nail in the coffin", eh? :3

killab2oo5

"hybrid approach", that is an interesting euphemism for tacked on :lol:

Sorry but motion controls was pushing it....no controls at all......i hope this bombs bad and costs M$ millions and millions. Im not interested in move or natal but move seems to be the better of the too because its pretty much a HD Wii. Natal seems too risky and possibly a gen or 2 too early.

Controller waggle >>>>>> body waggle

I doubt I'll be an early adopter. As with everything, I'll wait and see how it goes. Not gonna waste money on something that might just have some gimmicky games and a few good ones here and there. It could be really good but I'll believe when I see it.
