Lets Face It The REAL Competition Is Between X360 and PS3, Sorry Wii :)

The Wii is like McDonalds...A Million Burgers Sold. But honestly, does that make it a good burger?Rudy25

Dude...have you ever eaten a Mcdonald's hamburger? They melt in your mouth.

This "fad" has been lasting a pretty long time.

Fads can last longer than a year. Look at pogs.

Look at Tomagachi.

Indeed.

Man that PS2 fad, good times.

I like how people use the PS2 as a defense for the Wii. Yes the PS2 did become a fad, but the one difference between it and the Wii is that it had plenty of good games. So far, IMO, the Wii doesn't have enough which is probably the main reason why it will get little respect here.

Bu.. bu... the wii has outsold both of those for as long as its been out! :cry:Koolsen

Oh Noes ! lol. Wii is not real competition eh ? although its murdering your PS3, and your 360... ahaha/

The Wii has good games... But nothing amazing true. But neither did the PS2 for it's first year. You know games come with time.. Look at the PS3... XD

it had plenty of good games, yet it also had many more crappy ones. this is a system with 5,000 games, so i doubt most of those are Good (ie 7 and above).

Yep, PS2 had substance while Wii seems too be all flash. Once Wii gets 5 AAAe games (it currently has one) it will probably get some respect.

Zack and Wiki is possible, it's a puzzle adventure game that IGN says is a must have... No More Heros might be get it... even if they aren't AAA they are going to be good games.

Kekira

Yeah. For the Wii to get more respect on SW it needs to have some AAA games with lots of depth.

lol ps3 and 360?

its 360 vs wii.

wii was sold twice as many systems then sony?

Yep, they're fighting for third place, because P.C. is guarenteed first, while Wii is dominating the market, assuring second. ;)

If that's it for new IP's then that's the very reason why I've lost respect for the Wii and the possible reason why many here don't respect it.

There are other new IP's... they just don't look possible for AAA in any way. Dewy's Adventure, Forever Blue, Eye Shild 21, an Original Gundam game that IGN says acutally works for once... There are a ton of new stuff... XD But just like the PS3 and Xbox 360 most of them aren't going to be huge games that eveyone loves.

But they aren't the big games or the games that sheep tend to focus on. That's the difference between the Wii and it's Competition. The PS3 has a good amount of games that could be heavy hitters, and so does the 360 although I'm not too sure of it's '08 lineup. And although like the Wii some of them are franchises on their 3rd or 4th installments, atleast these games bring something new that could not be done in the past.

[QUOTE="Rudy25"]The Wii is like McDonalds...A Million Burgers Sold. But honestly, does that make it a good burger?Firelore29

Yep. You think people eat at McDonalds because they don't like it?

I've never heard of McDonalds being someones favorite burger. Unless im talking to my nephew who loves the Happy Meals because it comes w/ a toy.

It may not be their absolute favorate burger but at least they don't have to spend 15 bucks for it. I'd gladly spend 4 bucks to get a burger that is pretty darn good, fills me up, and stillleaves some extra cash in my pocket.

For a $1.50 you can go to a supermaket, buy a pound of ground beef and make a Burger that is 10 times better than you can get at McDonald's.

Hmmmm......Well maybe that's MS's and Sony's REAL problem? Maybe the reason why the 360 and the PS3 are constantly getting outsold month after month by the Wii is because MS and Sony don't see Nintendo and the Wii as "REAL" competition. I really think they need to start changing their tune, or they are going to be left in the dust by the little guy.peaceful_anger

Unlike Nintendo, Sony and MS have other sources of money. Also it's not so much that tey don't see it as competition, it's that they're aiming for a different audience, not just little kids, soccer moms, and old people.

I AGREE 100% the competition IS BETWEEN 360 and PS3...

Why?

"Bu,bu but its about the gameplay and groraphics" Thats a typical sheep resonse when you attack their Wii but with the Wii's infirioir graphics and rubish online it can never succed. Sorry to say the Truth :)th2

It's true. The only real competition is to see who comes in second. :PHoffgod

it may be in the lead in sales but it wont be in the lead for games, all it gets is shovelware

Resident Evil 4 is the best shovelware ever.

ok it gets shovelware, old games, and puzzle games. and thena few good ones(MP, galazy, TP, and SSBB)

RE4, SSBB, Mario Galaxies, Battlion Wars 2, metroid prime 3...

Why am I not suprised? :roll:

A last gen port, the same:roll:big 3, and BW2 which is a follow up to an over hyped last gen flop! WOW, hell SSB has never been a AAA series here on gamespot and a Mario platformer hasn't went AAA for over a decade. Try again sheep.

i like mcdonalds. Good and cheap. Doesn't need 100 other things to taste good. If it tastes good, then i eat it.

much like the wii ;)

But really, i think you should buy a 360 or PS3 if you have a wii. There are just too many great games you will miss if you only have a wii and visa versa if you only have a PS3/360.

Sheep and their imaginations........ :lol:

I sold my launch wii months ago, mainly because I realized its crap for a gamer. The graphics are weak, the games are lame, and wiimote isn't anything special. It certainly has an audience, but that audience is generally not someone thats going to be on a gaming message board. My cousins wife and her three friends own wiis, and they almost never played video games before. They like it, and thats cool, but thats the kind of audience the wii is good for. If you are really into games the wii is just not a very good console.tylerdurden2621

Nintendo does have one other source of money they own the Seattle Mariners......

Im guessing you havent seen how much the wii has sold since launch ?

the only reason he says this is b/c the Wii has lackluster games coming out this year... except SMG, MP3, and SSBB... other than that, everything else is just MEHh575309

lol... ill admit lair doesn't really do anything for me.... but then again PS3 will have heavenly sword, uncharted, haze, unreal tournament 3, assassins creed, gta4 and others im not even thinking of.... 360 has the best lineup this fall hands down though so if you have a 360 and a wii this fall your all set really
