Hopefully the Wii doesn't last as long as the mullet fad.

That fad is still popular in some trailer parks across the US and with euro trash. :lol: But serisouly though, this winter if the Wii can weather the string of amazing titles such as GTAIV (have you seen the net buzz....hell the ANNOUNCEMENT trailer crashed yahoo alone) and Halo 3 then it's here for the long run, if it falters it may never get back up again. agree?

Good games to be sure but you have to admit, their net buzz pales in comparison to the aforementioned titles. That's not a biased statement either, you can admit that right? Brawl, Agalxy, hell, not even LOZ ever creashed multiple sites with trailers alone.

That's because you read with your eyes and not your ears.

Honestly, if you think SMG won't sell consoles you've got to be crazy. Metroid Prime isn't as big of a seller, but it's still one of the best franchises Nintendo has and hardcore gamers will eat it up.

Please look at current software sales figures and tell me smaller studios wouldn't be going out of business without the wii. The gaming industry wouldnt last long after the PS2 dies and if there was no wii. Wii attracts casuals, casuals buy the most games that Hardcore gamers avoid. With only the PS3 and 360, the gaming industry would become a niche market again and would totally colapse on itself like it did in the 80s. Just because you don't like the wii, doesnt mean its not important to the gaming industry.

Just because a game doesn't have starving fans jumping on previews doesn't mean it won't sell well.

the wii won't falter from those. a few games don't seems to boost sales up for other consoles by the millions. And the wii also has its own library, so it should be fine

I'm not alone in saying I'm more excited for the Wii lineup this year than for any other console.

And about the mullet... No, the Wii will only last 5-6 years (standard console life).

Okay in that case, those three vs the hordes of excellent games coming out around the same time. Still, only one winner in terms of quality.

As for the post above that; Super Smash Bros Brawl, Metroid Prime: Corruption and Super Mario Galaxy, I'm sure, will contain things that distinguish them from the past games.

And for the record, new controls ARE an excuse.

Not an excuse. A reality. One that makes the games more attractive, appealing, and make them seem 'new'.

You can criticise something without being ignorant. Ignorant people need to look up the definition of ignorant before using it as a blanket definition of someone who purportedly isn't as enlightened on a subject as them. And yes...I as the guy who said that there was a little good rap but the majority of it was garbage.

Come back with statements on popularity when GTA and Halo can so much as sniff Nintendo's Big 3's respective nut sacks. Mario could sell 3 million with a masturbating mini-game compilation.

So, you're can call people who live in europe with mullets euro trash, but he can't call people in trailer parks with mullets trailer trash?

Hypocrisy ftl. Also, I think he was making a statement about YOUR statement, and not a statement himself.

My girlfriend lived in a trailer park for a brief time between houses. Nothing wrong with it.

Go to the smash bros site. It updates about once a week. There is already tons of new content. But yea, most of the big hits for the 360 and PS3 are sequels, so stop being a hypocrite.

So repackaging old games with new controls makes them better? Im sorry, but id rather have my games evolve in terms of depth, being able to wave around the gun isnt revolutionary, having large evironments with interactivity and just overall immersiveness

Either way, how did we get to sales? You kinda randomly popped it in, that the best you can do?
