The visual potential of the Wii for the next 4 years? (non-HD, blurry, pixelated, depressing)

The visual reality of Xbox 360 and PS3 NOW: (HD, visually spectacular)

now I know why Capcom, Ubisoft, EA, Lucasarts and many other devs are choosing to make their serious projects on the Xbox 360 and PS3. Even Steven Spielberg chose to make a bigger and better game on those systems. The Wii gets Blocka Blocka Wocko or something like that.

Picking out the worst looking screenshots, wow I've never seen you do that before :roll::lol:



No More Heroes has art direction, not graphics. Oh and not to mention it got AAA, just to rub it into your Wii hating mind. So yes, that is the Wii's potential.

Absolute fail.

in short, you're bored and are making the same topics you usually make. to answer your question: yes. now stop complaining. and I don't care if you can't stand it. if you can't, the distance yourself from it. I don't even care if you have the "right" to say that you hate it. good for you, but you've said this many times in the past.

Honestly that doesnt impress me. You just managed to post something on the level of Jet Set Radio Future on Xbox 1.

Dazzle me with a city picture from a Wii game. Can't do it, dont even try

I've been told that SSBB got 9.5 and all systems should bow down to the Wii? Bow down? To THAT stuff? YUCK

ugly visuals, overrated motion controls, terrible online, bad thrid-party library, outdated hardware, limited new IPs, do I need to go on. No I will not bow down to Wii just because it got 9.5 on Gamespot. There are many more reasons to stand up higher and resist.

why aren't you playing SSBB now? Why are you here? I thought you said the game was "da bomb"
I dont see you challenge those who say Wii wins the coveted title "best system ever" just because SSBB got 9.5 on Gamespot. You sure dont challenge or disagree there.

Those are tolerate a delusion are delusional themselves.

I wonder why you feel the need to bash the Wii at every opportunity you get.

Anyways, I'll play my games for this little thing called "fun," thank you very much.

It wasn't meant to impress anyone. It's the real No More Heroes. Don't you know the difference between art direction and graphics? :lol:

You always post the worst looking screenshots possible and try and claim ownage... it's pretty sad.

Bow down to the Wii? Don't know what you're talking about, unless you mean those fakeboy sheep.

The game looks better in motion, but that's beside the point. TC posted the worst pic of a game which concentrates on art direction and tries to clain ownage saying all Wii games look horrible.

god you said that already. do you reuse the same lines like Nintendo reuses Mario? they must be rubbing off on you.

And by "effort" you must be complimenting me on past ferocious victories of mine. I know I'm that good. Not every night will be 10-paragraph night okay?

Erebyssial, you are free to post any sort of game -- just make me feel assured Nintendo can still create mesmerizing worlds on the Wii. New IPs, refreshing visuals, you know....??? If you have that much faith in Nintendo Wii being superior to all consoles, I should be flooded and crushed by so many examples of stunning imagery and evolutionary gaming design that I would have to throw my Xbox 360 away and bow down.

I gave you an invitation to unrolll your red carpet, and what do the sheep do? Bah to a wall

As a Wii owner I would be fine with Mario Galaxy and Brawl graphics.. They are great looking when you factor in art direction.. And this is coming from a pc gamer that plays Crysis on high..

Sales rarely represent quality, I know these examples are probably over used on SW but Im going to use them anyways:P, Honda vs Ferrari, McDonalds Vs Real resturante, both Honda and Mcdonalds sale more but they arnt of higher quality products.

Says you who has made threads identical to this one in the past, using the same game with the worst possbile screenshots.

Instead of posting bad screenshots why don't you actually go and play games like SMG and MP3 which look great in motion? How good do you want them to look to be "refreshing" :|

As for new IPs, Nintendo has Disaster coming this year, as well as newer franchises like Animal Crossing and a project on an old cIassic franchise. Choose to ignore them.. that's fine :roll: Not to mention theres lots of new interesting games coming through from 3rd parties such as Boom Blox, Deadly Creatures etc.

the Wii is tied with the 360 at the moment, but the 360 has more AAEs, and an overall library that is almost 3 times greater when comparing AA and up games.

you're right on that...but you should understand that, like the 360 or PS3, the Wii does indeed have some great games. yes, there is a lot of shovelware, but that was true for the PS2, eh?

In the last few days there have been so many sheep threads about SSBB getting 9.5, SMG GOTY, Wii sales this and that. By posting that (notice you didnt resist when they posted those threads over and over and over) they are trying to send - er -CRAM - an unwanted message down the throats of lemmings and cows that Wii is superior in absolutely every way and that the contest is over and nobody should even bother buying Xbox 360 and PS3 anymore. Give money straight to Nintendo. All games are best on Nintendo.....

Well, I've come in, that grit of sand in those delusional sheep eyes, and I've unsettled their world. After 30 SSBB threads someone comes around and brings them back down to reality. The Wii is not some heavenly device but is a real system with real handicaps -- some permanent. Oh I'll admit it has some pluses like all systems, but I prefer a realistic view rather than some ghastly exaggeration.

You think my threads are repetitive and the same. I think I come here to get my hands dirty and reverse some arrogance. After a long line of pro-Wii threads you got spooked by a sudden big defender in the crowd! I go on into the sunset and the Wii has not moved one inch above what I thought of it, and neither have my favorite systems fallen below. SSBB thread spam did nothing for ya.

okeydokey, are those pics even worth a response. Guys, he's making a farce out of your Wii even more.

I could throw a dart up into the air and have it land on any PS3 and Xbox 360 pic. 95% of it will be spectacular. Something to show off to friends and family about what video game technology is capable of. I could throw the same dart up into the air and have it land 95% of the Wii pics, and let's just say I hope the dart lands in my eye before I have to look at some of the Wii games. 90% of them are just hopelessly ugly.

You know, people played on that and *LOVED* it last gen... Just like people played with disk switching and no motion sensing... Incredible games are very frequently made without these gimmicks. The most significant thing motivating this constant whining is blind brand loyalty.

This is just a different way of saying the same old **** over and over and over and over. You're putting me to sleep man. While you're so concerned with graphics people are actually enjoying games. Oh did I mention that a lot of games with bad grahpics are actually fun? Check handhelds for that. A game doesn't have to be a visual masterpiece to be good. Check Brawl, No More Heroe's, Metroid Prime 3 Corruption, and Super Mario Galaxy for that.

I mean a great game just came out that recieved a 9.5 and all you have to talk about is graphics. I often question what kind of gamer you are andwonder what kind of games you play.

I think that Wii fans deserve some bragging rights as far as the Brawl score and Mario Galaxy game of the year award goes. Of course I really doubt that Wii fans would be rubbing this stuff into everyone's face if those same people who complain of all the Wii fans bragging weren't constantly bashing the Wii. You are just going to esculate the Wii braggers with this thread man. Especially when the next two or three AAA exclusives for the Wii come along. You are just going to hear more and more by saying things like that.

I do own a Wii and I have to agree with you that the Wii is just a gaming console with a side dish of innovation (or call it a gimmick if you like). I don't discourage people to not consider the 360 or PS3 however. I am a happy new owner of a 360 in fact. I say go with what fits you the best. And personally I still prefer my first party Nintendo titles over anything else. And Wii is the only console home console I can get those titles. This coming from a guy that has owned pretty much every console since the NES along with just about every AAA title for each of those consoles. Wii's strength like the Gamecube's strength is Nintendo themselves. I believe that perhaps us Nintendo fans would just like to see some appreciation or respect toward Nintendo. When Nintendo is constantly getting bashed it's hard not to try and draw out a response from Nintendo haters. It's fun just to see what they have to say. And you're providing some fun.

I completely agree. Phoebusflows is nothing more but a graphics wh***. I mean, you'd think he'd be boasting more about PC's since they're better then console graphics. I never knew that a game had to have great graphics to be fun, by his logic it's amazing that the handheld market still exists. It's amazing how the DS can still sell so many units. I think it's safe to say the majority of gamers prefer gameplay over graphics. If a game is fun, then it really doesn't matter what it looks like.

The Wii sells well because it does have a lot of fun games to play, I don't get how Phoebusflows can't see that. I guess he has those HD goggles glued onto his head. I applaud the Wii, at least it does force developers to think outside of the box. They can no longer lean on extra horsepower for graphics to get them by this gen, they actually need to try and be creative this time around. *gasps* The 360 and PS3 really haven't offered anything different from last gen, just better graphics.

The Wii is actually something to show off to friends and family what gaming is capable of. My grandma could care less about how good Metal Gear 4 or Bioshock looks. But she does enjoy improving her age on the Wii fitness test, and she also enjoys doing some Wii bowling as well (as well as my mom). And you should actually learn to appreciate the fantastic art direction that many of Nintendo's games wear. Don't you get tired of looking at dark, bland, depressing games all the time? The 360 and PS3 could really benefit from a game such as Mario Galaxy in terms of art direction. And Wii does have some fantastic looking games. Galaxy in particular. If you go and play that game and come back to tell me it's ugly looking, you are telling a bald face lie and you lose all credibility. You then become another "sheep", "cow" or whatever.

Honestly that doesnt impress me. You just managed to post something on the level of Jet Set Radio Future on Xbox 1.

Dazzle me with a city picture from a Wii game. Can't do it, dont even try

I've been told that SSBB got 9.5 and all systems should bow down to the Wii? Bow down? To THAT stuff? YUCK

ugly visuals, overrated motion controls, terrible online, bad thrid-party library, outdated hardware, limited new IPs, do I need to go on. No I will not bow down to Wii just because it got 9.5 on Gamespot. There are many more reasons to stand up higher and resist.

Just stick to movies kiddo, you obviously enjoy watching your games more than playing them.

Obviously graphics aren't the key to Wii's success, so why make an issue out of it?

dont care about the graphics.

I care about the games. THe wiis biggest proble is the lack of big third party games. Atleast there arent that many i personally like.

That aside

Metroid Prime 3 was awesome. Run at a smooth 60 FPS. the atmosphere was as strong as ever. THe controls were awesome, and the gameplay was better than ever for Metroid Prime. As much as I like COD 4 and Halo 3 on 360, MP3s controls were just better for a FPS on consoles. THe single player was lenghty and the boss battles were some of the best this gen on any game.

Super Mario Galaxy another game that lived off its artsty-le more than technical graphics. Once again the game runs in at 60 FPS. The level design was creative and refreshing. THe game itself even with the mario characters was creative and refreshing. The challange was just right. the first 80-90 stars felt easy to medium. The final 20-30 went from medium to hard. The boss fights while easy were still rather creative and fun. IT was easily the best platformer last year and the best platformer since the 64 platformer games. ANd the motion control heavy levels are fun as heck, with other levels not abusing the wiimote. WHich not only makes the wiimote feel more natural, but makes it usefull in this game unlike something Like Zelda TP.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl- THis isnt getting old, another good Nintendo game running in at 60 FPS. The gameplay is just awesome, many of the glitches are gone. The depth is there for people who want to get really good at the game, it isnt a button masher unlike some other fighters. Throw in a map editor, a ton of characters, what is easily the best single player on a fighter,many different game types, many unlockables, online, and the best 4 player game next to something like a Rock Band and this game just deserves that 9.5

Super Paper Mario was also very good.

SO was FIre Emblem Radiant of Dawn, Zack and Wikki, Medal of Honor Heroes 2, No More Heroes(for other people), Trauma Center, etc

Thats all that really matters at the end of the day. DOes the dang thing have games i want to play. And the wii has one of the best games this gen in Super Mario Galaxy and one of the most content loaded games this gen in Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Metroid Prime 3 is just another great Metroid game. Fire Emblem and SUper Paper Mario also did very well. And No More Heroes and Zack and Wikki are good third party additions.

Throw in future titles like Disaster Day of Crisis, Tales of Symphonia 2, Mario Kart Wii, etc and im not complaing about the wii being the best secondary console to my 360. Even with the PS3s horsepower, in terms of games its not delivering much until this June.

The_DeepBlue, that's a good post.

It's funny I see the same sheep regulars with nothing to say and yet you still managed to make a good point that they combined together didnt even make. You are an outside of the box thinker, I like that.

The rest of you, between the okeydokey's three-stooges pic posting and Blackbond's masked expletives (am I supposed to be shivering from suppressed adolescent anger?) The_Deepblue is the one who actually has a thought contained in the post. He sees behavior. You learn from him between your SSBB breaks.

The_Deepblue, there is one unfortunate thing. If I made 10 threads or 0 threads, the sheep would've gone crazy anyways. I lurked for one week and saw it get crazy here anyways. I saw it get crazy over Twilight Princess 8.8 score. I remember it getting absolutely murderous over Mario Kart's 7.9 IGN score. You can't deal with these people on a balanced level if they start off mentally off-kilter with tendencies toward exaggeration. So with every action I must supply an equal and opposite one in return or they'll just multiply and multiply.

RPGamer is a poster that is polite. Unfortuantely that's not in my DNA. And neither is it in many others here who are way more undecorous in their language.

SMG looks good in spots. I've played it. It'd be nice to see something else posted for once though. If I were to buy a Wii, i dont want to rally behind one game forever as an example of visuals. I want to be surrounded by more games.

If you don't like the Wii's graphics don't buy one. It's not like the other systems will only get games with Wii level of graphics. Dur?

You're funny, and of all the Wii bashers I actually like you. You don't come on swearing, throwing exclamation points, caps, and plus you have good grammar. Of course I base this on this one thread. *Looks around supiciously* I guess that some of the "sheep" would still be "sheep" as you say. Someone might have to enlighten me on what the difference between a cow and a sheep is (that sounds funny). I don't visit or get into system war battles very often.

The_Deepblue, in real life I wouldnt bother anyone from buying a Wii or any other system, except for nGage. That is just wrong.

But I think the forums are definitely operating under a different set of rules than real life. Because we have nothing physical but only see words and pics, we all have to be a little more amplified to get heard. I could just say "I like Xbox 360" and nobody would care or read the post.

People keep getting drawn back to these forums, but why? For a little "fun" and "entertainment" and (very rarely) "education/information." And the only way to get the first two is to add a little "hyah!" to the posts. There are 20 other forums I dont go to. The 3-4 I return to have something interesting for me to read or -- I feel -- I have something provocative to add. People are free to disagree and I disagree with many. But I won't go out without some tongue wagging thrown in to liven things up.

Plus, I feel some people here have been allowed to roam the countryside with so much hot arrogance it almost bothers me to see such unchecked muscle-flexing in my face. Just as it's occasionally fun to poke fun at celebrities and their empty glamour, it's just fun to poke fun at empty egos -- yes even video game egos. I'm sure some think I have this ego (let them think it, I dont care), but it's fun to say it back to some of them! ;)

What do you mean "3 stooges pic posting"? That was exactly the same thing you put in the OP :? You know, intentionally posting the worst screens you can find and using them as a representation of the graphical capabilities of the console in question? A stupid thread deserves a stupid response don't you think? ;) Beleive it or not, I don't hate you phoebus. People like you make system wars a fun place to be. I always enjoy reading your threads, this one is just lazy though.

To be honest, your previous posts were usually better done. I mean there is a difference between the trolls and the elite bashers.

See yoo foo and you usually had a good thing going. There was a great point, hidden behind usually flamebait esque topics. But this one seems like stuff you have done before. This post is the equivalent of Zelda TP. its good bashing. But its a rehash, we have seen it before.

I think you need to switch the sty-le up a bit.

:lol:

Its like you aren't even putting any effort into these threads anymore.

PhoebusFlows

god you said that already. do you reuse the same lines like Nintendo reuses Mario? they must be rubbing off on you.

And by "effort" you must be complimenting me on past ferocious victories of mine. I know I'm that good. Not every night will be 10-paragraph night okay?

Erebyssial, you are free to post any sort of game -- just make me feel assured Nintendo can still create mesmerizing worlds on the Wii. New IPs, refreshing visuals, you know....??? If you have that much faith in Nintendo Wii being superior to all consoles, I should be flooded and crushed by so many examples of stunning imagery and evolutionary gaming design that I would have to throw my Xbox 360 away and bow down.

I gave you an invitation to unrolll your red carpet, and what do the sheep do? Bah to a wall

Once again, another fine example of a complete waste of life.

When you grow up and finally hit puberty you will think of these posts and remember them as the most depressing times of your life. Stop attacking video game consoles and do something meaningful with your life.

you ******* disgust me

You think my threads are repetitive and the same. I think I come here to get my hands dirty and reverse some arrogance.PhoebusFlows

There's a term for that: delusion of grandeur. You think you're accomplishing something that you're not. Here's a newsflash: what YOU think you're doing doesn't matter, because this is a message board. If you really want to measure accomplishment, then the only perspectives on your behavior that matter are the readers' perspectives, i.e. the ones who you say "think your threads are repetitive and the same," not your inflated sense of self-importance.

After a long line of pro-Wii threads you got spooked by a sudden big defender in the crowd! I go on into the sunset and the Wii has not moved one inch above what I thought of it, and neither have my favorite systems fallen below. SSBB thread spam did nothing for ya.PhoebusFlows

Spooked? No. Annoyed to all hell? Yes.

Just change your username or something. If you really want to "reverse some arrogance," you're not doing anything as PhoebusFlows anymore. Even lemmings and cows don't bother to come support you anymore once they see your name on the "Posted by" column.

for the next 3 years you get bioshock, uncharnted etc graphic while Pc gets crysis graphics
