Well, i was speaking to some kids at school and about 80% said that the Wii had better games. Now can anyone tell me how it is true? they said that 'its better beacuse it focuses on family content.' Now can someone PLEASE explain how these people call them selves 'GAMERS?' oh and when i mentioned a game likeHalf life or Call of Duty 4, they would all say 'they are crap' LOL

at least the wii has some worthwhile exclusives coming out this year. what does the pc have? all pc gamers do is talk about crysis, since there has been a pc game drought since 2007.

They probably couldn't afford a PC, PS3, or 360 so they resorted to a Wii.

Personally, I'd view Wii is better than the PC in terms of gaming.

Wii - You get to sit on a sofa and look at a screen and it doesn't require two consoles to be multiplayer, much more comfortable to play and it's simple to use: buy a CD and insert it, then play.

PC - Although the games range to more than millions, I'd say it would be somewhat a hassle to play games: you have to install it, check the specs of your computer, configure your computer. I view the PC as a surfing and a programming console.

So you buy a game without checking the specs first now? Plus, checking the specs of a game to see if it works takes seconds.

I don't know. Do you?

to be honest, that list is full of low quality titles that are mostly unheard of. with the wii the exclusives are well made and guranteed to be bugfree and fun, unlike the majority of games on that list. quality>>>>quantity.

If they can't even afford a PS3, I don't think spending money on any kind of video games is a good idea. Logic failed.

many games on that list are low quality and only appeal to a small niche of people. the few good high quality ones get exclipsed by the wii exclusive games. that's why i've been saying the wii has better 2009 games. as i said before quality>>>>quantity

Then why not just watch high resolution videos? I'm not going to buy a game just to know what it looks like.

Are you kidding me? The PC has the highest amount of AAE+ games this generation, more than the Wii by a large margin. The PC also has one of the most diverse library of games. Nintendo systems have never been better than the PC system. Nintendo may have been more prominent in your childhood, but in reality the PC always had the largest number of great exclusives. Even in today's gaming scene where multiplatform game development is so popular, the PC still leads well over the other systems. I'm fine with you liking the Wii better, but I think using your own ignorance to form an argument inexcusable.

How can anyone say Ps3 or 360 is better? Honestly it's all a matter of opinion. Does a PC have SMG, SSBB, Mario Kart, Zelda..... do I even need to go on? geez another PS fanboy with a weak argument against the Wii.

Every system has shovelware. Does that in any way take away from the good games that are released though? No.

And WRPGs, Racing, Fight Sims, MMORPGs, Adventure, Hack n' Slash, Strategy, Music games etc. The PC has one of the most diverse library of games, it's just that people don't seem to remember this, probably because it takes one more argument away from their already low "PC hating" stockpile of arguments.

Wow. Thats pretty arrogant of you.

So they like wii games more than PC games, thats their choice, and you say they shouldn't call themselves gamers? who the hell are YOU to say that? When wii exclusives and games are shown to you, you say (and this isnt just you) : 'I dont like these type of games' but when someone else doesnt like the type of games YOU like (COD4, HL2), you cry and make a thread saying those people dont even deserve to be gamers.

What are these "good games on the Wii" that you speak of? Mario Galaxy, No More Heroes, Madworld and...? The Conduit? A game that hasn't even been released yet?

Wii is horrible compared to any previous Nintendo console (aside from Virtual Boy lol.) It's filled with casual games and shovelware.

Truth. Although the Wii has very few goo exclusives, most of the REAL games (Not Wii fit and Wii sports and that failure) like Mario Galaxy,Metroid Prime 3 etc are astounding. But the PC has millions (Literally) more good titles than the Wii.

Maybe the seriousness of PC games don't appeal to them, because the're young. No need to act like the games police about it :|
