I still don't understand all the ps3 bashing, all the xbox 360 bashing, when one of the worst consoles ever made, is getting away just because it has motion sensing controller. I know it seems like I don't own a wii, but I do. I bought 3 games for the first 6 months (warioware, super paper mario, and zelda tp), and later bought smg, and zack and wiki. I find it amazing how the ps3 is getting flamed all around when there is around 30 games worth getting, and around 60 or so in 2008, while the wii has around 8 games worth getting in two years of life. I hate metroid prime, and while enjoyed the other paper mario games, played super paper mario, and thought it was not only the worst paper mario game ever made, but also one of the dullest games I've ever played. The game got away with high scores because of its 'innovativeness', not because its gameplay was any good (which it sucked).

I am also amazed that no one appreciates how last gen the wii is. When a game like super mario galaxy comes out, and people are giving it perfects, is humiliating. The game compared to xbox 360, and ps3 standards looks terrible, and doesn't even match graphically to some xbox games. I would believe that in order to receive a perfect score graphically at least for the wii, is to beat graphically the best game last gen. While this game can't hold a candle to games like beyond good and evil, splinter cell chaos theory, ninja gaiden black, and re4. Why did such low standards coem about, when they give perfection to a game that doesn't even technically compare to some last gen games. And don't say I don't care about art style of smg, because it is beautiful. The game was probably the best mario game ever made, and was my goty of last year, but lets be honest that game doesn't deserve 10's at all.

Now lets get to the future line up. Now that xbox 360, and ps3 are getting burnout paradise, dark sector, Rainbow six 2, army of two,Battlefield: Bad Company, and Viking: Battle for Asgard in the next 3 months. The wii next year is only getting as of now, mario kart wii, super smash brothers brawl, no more heroes, endless ocean, samba de amigo and okami for their 2008 line up. In their whoel line up for the year, I could only care about 3 games (super smash brothers brawl, mario kart wii, and samba de amigo if it is good). To be honest, I would rather buy a console which could only play xbla, and psn games over the wii right now.

Okay, I thought this thread was good until I got to the whole graphics thing and I thought, Why the **** did you get a Wii? I agree about Super Paper Mario but that's about it.

Eh. I'm probably the minority, but the only reason I'm keeping the wii is because of Supe Smash Brothers Brawl. And I feel like it is going to suck on a wii controller.

a bigger failure than the gamecube would imply that it has sold less than the gamecube during its lifetime (yes, were talking sales only because being a failure results from sales) yet the Wii has sold almost as much as the gamecube did lifetime a year and a bit.

As for the topic, its too bad you dont enjoy your Wii. I own only a Wii now but im getting a PS3 this year -- Without a doubt i love my Wii and will love my PS3. The Wii has made me love gaming again, to be honest. Many of the games that i have just bring me back to what gaming was about.

Im probably in the minority, but i dont care.

You can use four control options: CC, GC, Wiimote, Wiimote+Nunchuck, all of which are fully customizable. That should hardly be an excuse as to why it would 'suck'

ok i didnt read the post cuz its like 3 walls of text but im gonna assume the TC is dissappointed because hes used to next gen graphics. wii is really uncomparable to any other system in the past, as there are no systems (to my knowledge) taht didn't have graphics that just about rivaled other consoles of their generation.

but rite now im not really into my wii either. to be honest havent ever really been into mario, zelda, or metroid, pretty much the big shtos of nintendo. however i love smash bros to death, mario kart is pretty cool too. teh only thing i really use the wii for now is to play ssbm.

Good read and we're very much alike, but sadly many will ridicule you. Its the worst console I've owned too (which includes every other Ninty console and several handhelds). At first I wasn't bothered about its miniscule upgrade under the hood, then the buzz of the controller wore off and I realised it was a pointless Gamecube spin-off. Not that I didn't like the Cube, it was awesome for its time like every other one of their platforms. Its not the same Nintendo anymore, they've become shallow. Your not alone friend.

This forum isnt made out of sheep. This forum is made out of fanboys, about 92%. The rest are people who play games for fun regardless of console.

i cant agree the gc is better than the wii. it brought nothing new to the table (correct me if im wrong) it wasnt the most powerful system of its generation, it didnt have online play as sucessful as hte xbox and its game library wasnt too amazing. and it had in many peoples' opinions the worst 3-D mario game

How can the gamecube be better when they are basically the same software and hardware wise? Not counting the obvious upgrades like online and the VC. The Wii even play all of the GC's games. The GC being better than the Wii just don't make sense.

Look at their software comparision. In the first year, the gamecube had Zelda Wind Waker (better then Zelda TP Much better actually), Super Smash Brothers Melee, Pikmin, eternal darkness, star wars rogue squadron 2, animal crossing, time splitters 2, phantasy star online episode 1 and 2, super monkey ball 2 (awesome much better then the broken wii version), wave race: blue stomr, and Metroid Prime.

But then it totally ran out of steam, Nintendo is spacing the games out this gen. Wise move.

Well, being relative to this same point in the Cubes lifetime. It had more bang, more wows, better games for the standards of the era and a reliable controller. But yeah the Wii can play its games, which is the only thing I switch my Wii on for anymore (except the internet channel which is what I'm using now in bed 8) )

wind waker came out in 2003. Nintendo did a poor job with how they spaced out their games though.

Yes the PS3 > PS2 and PS2 > PS1 just because of backwards compatibility saying otherwise is a logical fallacy.

Gamecube was an amazing console, much better then the wii.

The Wii plays NES, SNES, N64, Genesis, Turbo Grafx, Neo Geo, Gamecube and Wii games. :| The Gamecube is NOT better than the Wii. Sorry, bud.

That is like saying the ps3 is the greatest console because it plays psone, ps2, and ps3 games >

The Wii has had enough games to keep me busy. It's a great console. Get over it and go make up with it. :) No need to hate, participate!

Yes the PS3 > PS2 and PS2 > PS1 just because of backwards compatibility saying otherwise is a logical fallacy.

Not nessicarly, paying 600 bucks (at launch) for a few good games < PS2 games vs paying 100 for PS2 games minues a few good games.

But now that would be right.

well as far as i know it only plays certain ps2 games and the $400 ps3 cant even play any ps2 games. also if you kinda think about it the vc games really appeal to older games who may not play games as often anymore. that type of gamer can enjoy games from their childhood from the snes and genesis era and even before taht. but i dont know if i would play game cube/ps1 games. old 3D graphics dont look too well today but 2D sprites are still appealing to me

I'd say 360 is worse than the Wii because at least when you turn it on, you know it'll actually work.

No, sorry, with the PS3 you get better online, better hardware a motion sensitive controller + the back catalogue of the PS2 and PS so logically the PS3 > PS2 > PS hence it's price. it's just logical.

Edit: got rid of the pesky quote chain

Majority of the games would be palyed on a pc (for free), with using haavy anti aliasing to make the game look better. That is at least what I did.

I too think the Wii was the worst recent console i owned, which is why i'm so glad i managed to sell it used no less on ebay during the post black friday to fund my new PC. Wii Bowling is the only game that saw any extended play; i owned TP and got bored after the water temple, owned Paper Mario and that was garbage, Sonic and the Secret Rings? (shame on me) trash, even SMG failed to keep me captivated. I dare say the only games besides bowling i enjoyed thoroughly was Trauma Center and my vc games (R-type 3, Actraiser, Gunstar Heroes, Super Metroid, Mario 64, Adventure of Link, and Link to the Past). I may purchase again in the future (not for SSBM) but not any time soon. If you enjoy your Wii more power to ya but it just wasn't for me (that can change but so far seems unlikely).

I have no use for the VC because I still have all my old consoles and favourite games. You can't beat old school gaming in its original form. Although I did buy a few Turbo GFX games (never had one).

Yea, and lets ignore that the ps3 also has oblivion, r6v, dirt, cod4, Assasin Creed, Rock band, darkness, and skate. Compare that to SMG, Zelda TP, Wario ware, mp3, and super paper mario. Lets add R&C TOD, calling all cars, Motorstorm, Warhawk, Tekken 5, Superstardust hd, everyday shooter, Uncharted, and UT3. Which console is worse?
