Agreed.

Bad choice of games as they sold a million copies at least.too_much_eslim

losing my thumbs...ice144

people buying launch console at $600 or more and people paying $50 a year to play online

For me I fear I might not like another Zelda game again. I played Twilight princess on the gamecube and hated the game. Now that the next Zelda game will be only on the Wii I fear I might not like the controls, and they might simplify the game even more for the wii crowd. I don't want Nintendo to screw this game up for me.

My next fear is that Halo 4 may not be that good if Bungie isn't developing it.

Big name/respected IPs been outsourced to a known shoveware developer.

Eg, Thinksomthing likeHalo 4 or Final Fantasy 14 orhanded over to somone like Data Design Interactive.

I hate to say it, but it's going to happen eventually. The key word is "eventually." I don't see why people say they hate the controls. I've played and rented several Wii games, and they all worked for me. Also to add, I've played the game with the default control scheme; if the game supported the GC controller and Classic Controller.

Let's face it. MS and Sony will eventually have to use motion technology in the future just to keep up with Nintendo. If they don't; that would be a huge step backwards for them not to keep up with Nintendo and stick with another standard controller with little or no change.

Just my two cents.

[QUOTE="Banjo_Kongfooie"] Casual Market, I have seen more hardcore gamers enjoy a Wii than Ps3 and 360 combined but then again I am 18 and also a Manticore. ( so Im past the fact that people call Mario a baby game)

Banjo_Kongfooie

cmon...ppl are buyin the Wii for Wii sports....games like Madworld and NMH bomb

No I could say that Ps3 owners and 360 owners only play Fifa.

My biggest gaming fear is that Sony and Microsoft go for the casual market, and translate "casual gamers" to "stupid casuals". The article "Birdmen and the Casual Fallacy" sums up my opinion here.

Games I was interested in, getting cancelled.

Single player games dead and online taking the dominant throne

or casual gaming is the dominant type of gaming in the future with the hardcore dieing

hopefully that doesn't happen:(

That Sony and microsoft and Sony merge with Nintendo to make a super casual super console.

To me, it just sounds like a person who's stuck in the status quo and prefer things to be same. Face it, times are changing, and if you can't keep up, get out.SpinoRaptor24

Well they're not changing for the better are they?ChrisSpartan117

To some, yes. To others, no. Don't forget that motion techology on counsols is fairly new, and it will time for them to improve once developers get better at it. The saying "Patience is a virtue" comes to mind. Times are changing for counsols! Just like when they first went online and (don't quote me on that since I'm most likely wrong) didn't most people think it should stay on the PC?

Games being regulated because parents won't stop using them as a scapegoat for raising their kids inappropriately.

the only thing i fear is M$ knocking sony out of gaming but they could still make games i guess. Other then that the only other thing i fear is Sony and M$ trying to copy the wii. If they do i will be moving to pc.

you are SOOOOOOOO wrong, FIFA games might not sell that much much in the US but in a lot of countries it's the best selling game

I have to remind you soccer is the most popular sport in the world

well I almost forgot to say my biggest fear is not having money to get a new console because o new hobbies, or just stop liking videogames but I thanks to FIFA games I'm actually pretty sure I'll never stop gaming

I worry that devs will keep pumping out generic shooters and that more and more games are becoming focused on online multiplayer.

For me I fear I might not like another Zelda game again. I played Twilight princess on the gamecube and hated the game. Now that the next Zelda game will be only on the Wii I fear I might not like the controls, and they might simplify the game even more for the wii crowd.

ps3 price cut

The Wii. Oh wait that happened already. If MS and Sony follow suite I'm becoming a full time hermit.Zoso-8

Developers taking a different approach to games from the success of Wii, heading in the direction of making games that caters to casuals, and abandonsquality in favour ofshort development cyclein order to move console units and boost sales.
