whats a wii?
Oh u mean that console that competing with the ps2? lol
Because as of now, there isn't really that much interesting stuff coming. We're just waiting for the big titles... Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Zack and Wiki, Brawl, RE:UC, etc.
It's just not all that interesting right NOW (sheep talking here). Nintendo's E3 conference was disappointing for hardcroe crowd. Hopefully E4All, TGS, leipzig, will bring better news. Sadness is supposed to be Leipzig last time I heard. (Then again - it was suppose to be at E3 not all that long ago)

Funny you say that because PS3 and 360 could never even hope to compete with the PS2.The majority of people on this site are gaming enthusiasts and their views/tastes are not always in-line with the broader gaming community.

Funny you say that because PS3 and 360 could never even hope to compete with the PS2.But of course, I mean they're in a another league of superior harware and specs(and before you call me a graphics w**** that includes AI and pphysics).
thats because SERIOUS gamers dont like the wiimr_w25SERIOUS gamers like all the systems. Get over it.
I think if you compare game line-ups for all consoles, then it's very clear that the Wii is selling because casuals have bought in to whole Wii-Mote thing, and that the console is alot cheaper then it's competition, because I don't think the Wii's games library present or future, holds up to either the 360 or PS3...
Look at sales for the PS3 since it's price drop, now imagine if both the 360 and PS3 had a price drop to that of the Wii, I imagine they'd both sell out everywhere too...
Take nothing away from Nintendo their product is selling great, but I imagine sales will slow down once the other 2 have a proper price-cut, and they become more affordable to the masses...

Yeah, well, fortunately, I respect your opinion.A major shift in the market is taking place in the Wii's favor and many of you are too stuborn to even acknowledge it.

Not stubborn, just don't care. The majority of the games could come to the Wii and I wouldn't even think of buying it.
I go where the quality is first, not the quanitity.
What are we goign to be talking about with the wii? How much the graphics for cooking mama own farcry's? Why cant we talk about the 360 and ps3? So wat if the wii is dominating how many times do we have to talk about metroid prime, smash brothers, etc.? Why do u hate the other consoles? If u wanted to talk about just the wii wouldn't u go to the wii forum?youngtongue3rd parties go where the $ is, and when the Wii's userbase exceeds the 360 and PS3 combined they'll go to the Wii.... esp considering its cheap development costs.
Are you going to talk about the Wii then?
Theres no denying Wii's domination in the console wars. I think a lot of people compare the PS3 and the 360 because the two consoles are more alike in terms of system performance, graphics, etc..... than the Wii. The Wii is a great console but just quiet abit different than the ps3 360.. In terms of sales im sure the Wii will win, it is the cheapest, and everyone loves mario. I will buy a Wii once I can find one :),,, but I would personally rather pay $200 extra for the Wii if had the graphics and hardware of the other 2 consoles, but thats just me.7fold
i would think about....but what i hate is the controller. i think it is stupid and bad for gaming
thats because SERIOUS gamers dont like the wiimr_w25
I'm what would be considered a "serious" gamer..and I think Wii is great. I'm very happy that I own one.\

Yeah, well, fortunately, I respect your opinion.and i respect yours:D. i can see why someone would want a wii...its easy to use, can be fun good for parties. but its just not for me
yup, and thats when ill get one, if the have fixed their production problems.Because as of now, there isn't really that much interesting stuff coming. We're just waiting for the big titles... Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Zack and Wiki, Brawl, RE:UC, etc.

If your last statement is true, did you have a GC? I recall the GC's games winning multiple awards in '05 (or was it '04?).Anyway, to say you don't care is a lie; I think it's stubborness. The Wii could afffect what you love to do--gaming. Are you still saying that if for some reason next gen consoles all have something "innovative," you honestly wouldn't care, knowing it was Nintendo that possibly caused this new shift?
Bah...admittedly, it sounded better in my mind what I wanted to get accross, but it got lost as I typed it out. Oh, well...

Hahahaha threads like these make me laugh! It sure is funny!NobuoMusicMakerLucky Star owns!
However, I don't like the fact that we both like it, but see the actions and companies portrayed oh so differently.

But that does not mean quality games, especially not games of the same quality that the PS3 and 360 are getting.

Yes, I owned a GC. I owned all three last generation.
But there comes a point when your willingness to pay overrides your interest in the lineup. As far as I'm concerned, the quality of the 1st party Wii games doesn't even come close to the GC's. And as for the big three coming in the next few months; Metroid is the only title I would play. Hardly enough to warrant a 250 dollar purchase.
Onto your next paragraph. I don't care what kind of innovation is inside the console, or outside. The Wii's motion sensing isn't a selling point. If the games suck, it doesn't matter how your control it. What I think of what the Wii could do to gaming is irrelevant as well. If there's quality software that I want to play, I would buy it. But that software has to be pretty freaking amazing. I'm just not seeing anything like that in the future.
If next generation we get a new lineup of gimmicks for the new consoles, it wouldn't matter to me as long as the games are good. I could care less if Nintendo did it or Sony or MS.
I may dislike Nintendo now, and I may dislike the Wii as a gaming platform, but those aren't the primary reasons for me not buying it. As I;'ve said, it's all about the games. The Wii lacks games, and it's future isn't very bright either.

For example, that's not exactly what I see a true gamer as, and it doesn't really matter; you could see things as you take them even if others don't see it the same way.
I think a gamer is someone who's passionate about games themselves (I emphasize "passionate"). Your view to me is like a by-product of sorts, if you get what I mean. Once you're passionate about games, you'll want to learn more about the industry and such on your own, and even want a job in the field--I know that's how I felt when I was younger, but that's irrelevant.
Seriously, Nintendo's just an ambivalent company to some.
Because as of now, there isn't really that much interesting stuff coming. We're just waiting for the big titles... Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3: Corruption, Zack and Wiki, Brawl, RE:UC, etc.

Come on, this is the same crap over and over. Same story with every other console.The same "big" titles keep being repeated for their respective consoles; we keep seeing "AMAZING!" pics of games we already know look great, and have been reminded of them constantly to the point it's ridiculous.
