There will never be only one console, competition drives the industry.

Zing! he did say console :P . Yeah if the PC and wii only existed the industry would be even MORE polarised, the feelings of supremecy of the PC gamers would create a time-space inversion. Then again that kinda happens if you were to compare the wii to the PC, the lack of HL2 alone makes the wii lose hands down.

Seeing as it is the only console I own and i'm loving it, yes. However, I think many people would drop dead if it was only the Wii.

I would convert to hermitism.

But if PC's were dead too, then no, I wouldn't solely game on a Wii, especially with the lack of competition. Nintendo would release even less games than they are now.

Duh I'd miss them.

Even if the Wii was the only system around, I would still play. There's a decent amount of good stuff amongst the garbage.

I still want a Wii. Nintendo franchises + 2009 Line-up will probably convince me to get one. I'm the oddball gamer who doesn't think that hyper-violent game = good game so the Wii never looked as unattractive as others deem it to be.

I agree on both parts, also being only a Wii owner.

I got what you mean, its an odd love for something that is clearly FAR inferor to the other systems. I mean what is there to praise? SSBB? to be fair the wii has very little worth "still gaming", i honeslty don't get why people like you shower love on a system that lacks softwear.

Probably, I already have a Wii, but rarely touch it... Since there's nothing comparably good elsewhere, I guess I'll go with my only option.

As i stated earlier, there would be a mssive gulf. most multplats would be exclusive to the PC or just WAY better so there would be an een starker contrast between the two stadards of system. My god, the production values on the wii would look so low....

I haven't tried to creep anyone out. Maybe I'm getting good at it. Either way, yeah, the 360 and PS3 dissapointed me when I first saw them. It wasn't until I saw Wii Music at E3 2006 that I decided to stay playing games. Even though Wii Music ended up being a flop, I played enough games before that, that convinced me to stay.

I am a gamer...Wii has games...SO YES, I will always be a gamer no matter who is here. I just wouldnt play shooters unless they made a normal controler. Matter of fact, if NIN did have a normal controler I would easily give up my 360. BUT at least I get to play GH and SMG and bowling..

well, let us think about this. If the Wii was the only thing that could play games in ther world, then all support would convert to Wii meaning there would be a LOT of amazing software for it.

So yes... I would. :|

I have spent more time playing my Wii than any other console this generation (except for my DS perhaps), so yeah I'd still be a gamer.
