The Wii is not a casual console. It has casual aspects, but that doesn't mean it lacks awesome games. Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, Zelda TP, Resident Evil 4, Super Paper Mario, Zack and Wiki, Fire Emblem, a few great titles which are actually have variety, which lacks on other consoles.

"Where are all the mature games?" Please, once again don't make stupid comments when you don't even have the knowledge. Resident Evil as I mentioned before, Resident Evil: UC, Manhunt, and No More Heroes coming soon are mature titles. That doesn't seem like many, but really, Nintendo does not need to make a million "mature games" a year.

I can speak for the PS3 fans but as for the 360 is has A TON more variety than the wii.. (ok maybe not "A Ton" :P)

And YES the wii is a casual system.. hands down. Sure it has a handfull of "hardcore" games but a majority of it's software is catered for the casual market.

...The 360 doesn;t have more variety than the Wii. Sure, it has more higher rated games, but way too many of them are shooters. The Wii has games like SMG and Zelda TP which you'd never see on anything else. The wide range of more fun/mini-game based games extend the Wii's variety alot, not saying they're the best games out there, but they do the job. The Wii has every genre of games out there, it's why it's most popular.

Why are you hiding behind the 360? YES, the ps3 doesn't stand much of a chance when compared with the current 360 library, neither does the Wii for that matter, and that's comming from a cow, but were comparing the ps3's library (which also include alot of great AA exclusives) and the Wii's library.

I'm not hiding behind the 360, i'm acknowledging its existing. Every time somone says that the PS3 has crap exclusives and generally worse versions of 360 games you start getting upset and crying about how "they're not on the Wii". No s** sherlcok, but the fact is the Wii has a good lineup of exclusives as well as definitive versions of great games. At 250 dollars that's infinately preferable to a 400-600 dollar console that just plays worse versions of 360 games

exactly. Cow start gettign upset about how "you can play 360 games on the PC" despite the fact that

  • you STILL cant play the games on the PS3
  • the 360 versions of said games are normally just as good as the PC versions
As soon as you mention the Wii though they start getting excited that you can play worse versions of 360 games on a more expensive console

This post is long enough for me to be amiss if I listed them here. However, Mario Kart, No More Heroes, Fragile, Tales of Symphonia, Disaster Day of Crysis, Starfox, Crysis, Bully:SE, Punchout, and tons of other games are in the works, and there are some really good looking games that hardcore gamers, as well as softcore, can and will love, and plenty more unannounced. My current '08 most wanted Wii game list is 24 games long, while my 360 list has 12 games, but perhaps I'm a tad biased.

DragonfireXZ95

Did anyone else notice this in bold?

I think you are getting your systems mixed up, TC.

No he isnt diaster is looking promising, you haters never realized those pics were 2006-early2007, and do you honestly think nintendo would let a bad "hardcore game" out of its offices.

Among those 32 Wii AA games are 16 VC games, so the Wii actually has 16 AA games, and paper mario is a VC game so that drops the Wiis total AAA games to 3.

so in short, the ps3's library is much better than the Wiis.

thejakel11225

Nice try, but the fact remains that none of those PS3 AAA's are exclusives (the Wii has 2) and the Wii has more AA exclusives as well. What this means is that the PS3 is only really good for playing worse versions of 360 games whereas most of the Wii's top rated games are either exclusives or the definitive versions of said games

PS3 is basically worthless

Sorry i don't play exclusive games only, another thing, we're comparing the overall library of both consoles,not exclusives, and the fact remains that (according to GS) the ps3 has a better library than the wii.

PS3 is only really good for playing worse versions of 360 games

That might have been true 6 months ago, now almost all the multiplats that the ps360 are getting are almost identical, some even better on ps3 (oblivion)

Top rated games are either exclusives or the definitive versions of said games

TP (GC)>TP (Wii)

RE4(GC)>RE4(PS2)>RE4(Wii)>RE4(PC)

Manhunt 2(PS2)> manhunt 2(Wii)

almost all the sports games on ps360>>>>> sports games on Wii (im talking multiplat, not Wiisports)

If you dont play exclusives only why did you take out paper mario or any VC game for that fact.

I smell damage controll, cows and their logic.

You have ONE qirky off the wall title that happens to be good, and all of a sudden the wii has more variety.. :?

Then you mention MK which is on EVERY SINGLE console on the planet and mysims? :? And future NOT RELEASED YET games.. and the wii has more variety? :?

No RPG's to speak of besides PM and the wii has more variety? :?

If you say so.. :?

I assume you're talking about someone else because I never made a comment bashing the wii for Multiplats..

And it's a known delusion that the wii has more variety than the 360... Face it man.. The 360 has more variety and it's because it's been out longer.. There's no shame in admitting that.

BTW, it's rather assinine for cows/sheep to call other games "flops" when Not ONE Exclusive game for the PS3 scored AAA and 2 of the biggest wii games flopped on their faces Metroid Prime 3 and Zelda TP.

Ok then why did you take them out, it doesn't matter if they are last gen games they are being relaeased for a new system, and some games get updates.

And the gc re4 isnt better than the wii version, jsut because a game scored higher doesn't mean its better as shown by gears pc being scored lower but being a better game.

Did you not say you could find those games on any platform, discerditing them

The same can be said for lemmings with BD(blue dragon) and Mass efffect, but the thing is lemmings bash people for not having AAA ir for flopping but ever since mass effect swear AA games are teh GOTY and GS is biased.

the_h_bomb

That's a shame because exclusives are WHAT DEFINES A CONSOLE. you'd have to be a complete moron (no offence) to buy a console at a premium price to play worse versions of games availible on another console.

So not playing exclusive games only is wrong? i don't see the shame really. now don't get me wrong i didn't buy the ps3 for COD4 or AC or even uncharted or HS, i got it for MGS4, FFXIII, GOW3, and GTA4.

PS3 is only really good for playing worse versions of 360 games

That might have been true 6 months ago, now almost all the multiplats that the ps360 are getting are almost identical, some even better on ps3 (oblivion)

thejakel11225

There's also DIRT, but that's just 2 games. when huge titles like Orange Box, Madden, Assasins Creed, VF5 and Virtua Tennis are better on the 360 (a cheaper console) you really do have to have serious problems to pay more for the PS3 to play inferior versions of said games

OB isn't out yet for ps3, both ps3 and 360 have issues with AC, Madden: true, Idon't see the difference between the 2 versions except for the online (which as i hear the ps3 got and online patch atthe ps-store), Virtua tennis: true.

Top rated games are either exclusives or the definitive versions of said games

TP (GC)>TP (Wii)

RE4(GC)>RE4(PS2)>RE4(Wii)>RE4(PC)

thejakel11225

Scores wise (given they were on different consoles) but in both of those cases Gamespot said the Wii version was the definitive one. try again

I might agree on RE4 since all versions weren't released at the same time and the lower score was a result of "aging",but both versions of tp were released at the same time so if the Wii version is superior why didn't it get the higher score:|

almost all the sports games on ps360>>>>> sports games on Wii (im talking multiplat, not Wiisports)

?????????

they're not exactly different aren't they? they're not remakes, they just got re-released, playing super mario world on my pc doesn't make it a pc game, get it?

its still different, playing it on the pc is illegal, and some games that were released have only been region specific, like sin and punishment. and mario bros 2

Show me a quote I made in this thread "discrediting" those games because they're multiplats... I'll wait..

And check your own statements while you're at it.. YOU'RE the one who started with the "flop" nonsense.. SO I simply countered..

and quote BD all you want but that doesn't change the fact that the 360 has far more higher rated games in ALL genres than the wii does..

you know when a console win a generation when this console get almost all 3rd party support. last gen the ps2 was easily identify by everyone has the winner and i will say for now the 360 have a good lead and sony new pricetag and agressive advertising now are going in the good direction and the wii lots of shovelware and remake from the las generation poor 3rd party support and nintendo ip selling well ...wii succes in hardware sale is similar to ds succes but the non nintendo game with high quality production are not there so my theory is nintendo console are bought by parents and use as cheap babysiter.

enre of games out there, it's why it's most popular.

Kameo elements of Power = Action/Adventure game

DOA 4, VF 5 = Fighting games (Does the wii even have fighting games?)

Viva Pinata, LOTR = Sim (Again Does the wii even have sim type games like these?)

PGR3/4, Forza 2 = Racing (Read above...)

Oblivion, Mass Effect = RPG (Read above and yea I know about PM)

And that's just off the top of my head..

zack and wiki

/your argument mortal kombat, mysims, the crappy racing game(mario kart soon), no real rpg's yet but the wii has over 5 lined up for next year.

You have ONE qirky off the wall title that happens to be good, and all of a sudden the wii has more variety.. :?

Then you mention MK which is on EVERY SINGLE console on the planet and mysims? :? And future NOT RELEASED YET games.. and the wii has more variety? :?

No RPG's to speak of besides PM and the wii has more variety? :?

If you say so.. :?

Then you mention MK which is on EVERY SINGLE console on the planet and mysims? :? And future NOT RELEASED YET games.. and the wii has more variety? :?

No RPG's to speak of besides PM and the wii has more variety? :?

If you say so.. :?

'ill let you interpret it.

the flop thing i was merely showing you a lemming double standard.

There's nothing to interpret.. A very small handfull of games was mentioned to counter my statement. Not once did I "discredit" them by saying they were multiplat. ANd there's no double standard involved. A flop is a flop period! ME flopped! Stick with bashing the PS3 my friend.. It's a safer bet. ;)

1) Bad online

2) It does have bad graphics compared to other consoles

3) It's gaming library is inferior compared to the other two.

Couldnt you say the same when comparing the 360/PS3 top the PC though?

1) Bad online in comparison.

2) It has bad graphics compared to the top PC game.

3) Thier Librarys are inferior combined.

Does that make the 360/PS3 less worthwhile? thought not.

Yes you can. That's what makes the PC the best system by far. But I'm talking about consoles against other consoles. If you bring PC into this, no point in talking about it, PC wins.

The Wii itself is a fad.

False.

See the sales figures lately? Fads die out. The Wii is the hottest toy(yes all consoles are considered toys) for 2 years in a row. A first. If its a fad, it is the longest lasting and most popular toy fad ever.

It's funny how everyone calls the Wii a fad when it obviously isn't. One just has to look at the sales, like you said. What everybody seems to disregard, however, is that the PS3 is the biggest and only fad among the consoles.

Yeah, the Wii and Nintendo have once again changed the industry and has influenced the upcoming consoles, but I think after this gen they will be catch-up like they were in the past 2 gens. Microsoft and Sony are obviously going to rip the control scheme of the Wii one way or another in the future, and unless Nintendo takes another big step to add a new way to play, they are going to be playing catchup up to the other two from what I see. Cheap prices and generally untapped potential of control schemes (Mario and a few others have accomplished this)can only keep the consumers interested for so long.

I have something that the TC and the haters may want to hear: some like the Wii and its (not "it's") games, others don't. Gamers aren't non-hardcore if they don't like Galaxy, but parading around "The Wii is bad" as a fact isn't particularly true, either.

What are you talking about? Sony already did that with the PS3 and the gimmick known as the Sixaxis.

Looking into this I see the industry evolve in the following.

The Atari/Arcade Age - This focused more so on gaming being pick-up and play

The Nintendo Age - This is when gaming was seen more so as a toy then anything else. As time went on however games like Street Fighter II and Doom brought gaming to be taken by a more mature audience.

The Modernization Age - When SONY took things up, gamings target audience greatly matured, not only that but games tended to get bigger, more serious, etc. Games were thought to take place of movies to be some super interactive medium. We saw this with games like Final Fantasy VII, Syphon Filter, Metal Gear Solid, etc. Not only this but games started to combine genres to get that "action-adventure" apporch. Instead of being a linear level designed beat-em-up, Devil May Cry had some sort of mini-Zelda Exploration aspect to it, this goes along with many games as well.

The Western Age - It's no secret that gaming now is more Western then ever before. Shooters take the crown of popularity as well as sports games and such. I'd normally rename it something else but, but the Japanese developers are more or less hardly doing anything now or if are have a long ways to go in development. Those that do have games lined up they are more then so geared towards the Western market due to Japanese core gaming being so small as of current.

Looking at what's happening and observing this is what I can guess the Wii will do.

The Uplifting/Concept Age - Let's face it casual gamers have found their system. Nintendo observed the popularity of Solitaire and online Sudoku and it payed up huge. Because of this gaming is going to be bigger then ever before. But where does that leave the gaming enthuiast? Looking at the games that are currently being looked forward to amongst the DS and Wii, it seems more so that concept is King. When people talk about Fragile, No More Heroes, King's Story, and others they don't talk about the cutting edge tech. such as physics, graphics, or online capablities, nor do they talk about the depth of gameplay or skill in it. When people talk about these games they usually talk about the concept of the game as a whole and how fun it looks to play it. I see this more so like music or books where people choose which they prefer entirely on taste and what sounds more interesting.

Don't try to look like that. You don't want to.

I have a Wii, enjoyed a couple games (Metroid, Mario) and obviously Wii Sports is a winner with groups HOWEVER with that being said, it's played the least out of all three systems for me. While I am happy that it will have an impact on price next time around for the other systems, I am not happy about the horrible visual's that the Wii has. Because of the success of the console with such horrible visuals, I have to wonder if next gen for sony and microsoft will be impacted. Give me a system with the wii mote technology and the visuals of sony and microsoft, THATS the winner.

No it's not. The games are though.

The Wii doesn't have a single game I'd consider worth playing.

Time to go off topic (relatively to what most of you guys are talking about) :D

The most significant console ever would have to go to the Dreamcast

It brought many things to the console market including voice recognition (including karaoke), and one of the biggest factors in this and last gens consoles, Internet Play!

Sega has always had somewhat innovative and quirky products. I can only imagine what they would have come up with if they had the resources and support.

By that point alone, all the other consoles to come out to this date are fads as well.

your topic is all opinion based, you can shout false as loud as yo uwant as many times as you want, but at the end of the day its still your opinoin on saying most of those thing, some things are very true, but alot of them are pure opinion, but i agree taht the wii is significant because next generation nintendo is gonna be totally screwed seeing as how the large part of the gamers are gonna be casual, and there is no denying that part, and casual gamers arent gonna go out and buy another gaming console like regular gamers, thats is a fact, they will have half of the sales that there having now next generation, THAT! IS! FACT! (my opinion)
