For all gamers, hermits, lemmings, and cows.

Post 1 AND ONLY 1 reason (the first one that comes to mind) that you are not willing to go along with the unwashed masses and join Nintendo's version of "next-gen" gaming.

no rambling speeches or bashing, just the top reason that "Wii is not for Me"

I just want to tell you, this thread is going to fill up with sheep shooting down fanboyish (or slightly less fanboyish) comments.

The graphics suck and the motion is a gimmick plus the crappy online and the general lack of games, did I miss anything :roll:

Well I used to think it was for me that's why I waited in line at wal-mart 16+ hours, but now I've decided that I don't really like and regret buying it. Why? Lack of games. I haven't purchased one since Zelda and don't plan on getting one till SSB. Then after that I don't know what I'll get.

oh yeah, when your finished with that time machine would you be nice and donate it to the cows, they've done too much waiting already :P

or does it only go backwards through time? that would be pretty useless, even more waiting for the cows:lol:

sorry cows, i saw the opportunity and took it lol.

There are no games on the Wii that interest me in any way.

If I wanted to play with two sticks I'd be a drummer....

Motion controls for EVERY game is a chore! I don't understand why anyone would want t leave the comfortable, accurate, and enjoyable familiarity of standard gaming controls. It's like using chopsticks, all the time, just because it's something new, despite how innacurate and inefficient it is.farrell2k

:| i don't know what to say to that.....ummmm, actually i don't think anything needs to be said.

People shouldn't laugh at their own jokes.... especially jokes that have been used over, and over, and over again for the past 2 years.
