The PS3 is buzzing with Killzone hype, a price drop, and upcoming monster games like MGS4, FF13, Assassins Creed, etc. The 360 is buzzing with possible price drop hype, possible MGS4, and upcoming monster titles like Halo 3 and Lost Odyssey. So wheres all the Wii hype? MP3 was confirmed to have no muiltplayer. SSBB is confirmed not playable and SMG remains the only title massively hyped. Where are the upcoming 3rd party titles that sheep get saying 'the Wii took everyone by surprise. Wait until E3.' The Wii has a lot to prove tomorrow. Will it finally get high quality 3rd party games like the 360 and PS3? Or will it continue to be a watering hole for ports, shovelware and short mini games?

We're more contained, plus the fact that Nintendo's conference is tomorrow. Why waste the time now building up hype with the typical Nintendo fashion of not releasing news till the E3 date? Seriously...

I like how you say "where are all the upcoming 3rd party titles", but then you go on to say "the wii has a lot to prove tomorrow".

It's like you asked a non-rhetorical question, then answered it yourself.

I'm not worried. Conference is tommorrow and like always Nintendo will deliver. With the amazing sales Wii is having right now (and the abysmal PS3 sales :lol:; price cut was obviously a desperate move) Wii will truly come out on top this gen and thus Nintendo will stick around for yet another generation of quality gaming. 20 years and still strong.

I'd assume because most people are interested in the next-gen consoles, and also because the Wii is in a class of its own, thefore its not really a System wars thing, where as the PS3 and 360 are in direct competition.

Maybe the wii and PS2 can go at it? Or it can go head-to-head with fischer-price? *snicker*

Or those said people don't post on GS? I mean, lord forbid that not everyone waste their time on some internet forum, let alone the internet be restricted to one and ONLY one forum.

That is stupid enough to be a sig quote.

I don't see all that much 360 hype either. I see more about KZ2 than anything else these days.

Those of us who truly care about the games on the Nintendo platform keep our hype to ourselves.

They have nothing to hype. Mario and Sonic Olympics looks like crap. Nights looks like crap.

...they have sales tho. They can hype that while we hype actual games.

PS3 and 360 need hype because they're losing to the Wii.

Why hype something when they're already winning.

Have you checked the sales charts lately?

But then you say "Teh game quailty and graphics!" No. MS and Sony arn't making these system because ZOMG THEY JUST LOVE THEIR GAMERS AND WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR THEM! No they're trying to make money.

Good and and graphics arn't their atempt to try to SERVE THE GAMING WOULD, they're trying to sell their system and games.

Wii is selling the best right now, Wii is winning. Unless that changes Wiis the top dog right now.

the system is $250. It should sell. And no matter how many Wiis are sold, it's still behind the 360 and PS3 when it comes to development, and tier 1 games.

The sales will lead to more games. If the Wii wasn't selling, do you think we'd get SC: L? Probably not. And don't go off saying "Teh spin-of"because the lead designer of the game was incharge of SC2 and SC3 I beleive. It is veiwed as the "dream team" among the company.

Who cares if it's selling? It appeals to a broader market. It has absolutely no depth in it's library. If your clame to fame is the fact it's selling then you have owned yourself. I'm not a PS3 fan, but even the PS3 has more long term value than the Wii

The PS3 has the most long term value actually. It has the best hardware and is the most technologically advanced console. So the 360 and Wii will be outdated before PS3.

Wii doesn't need any talk and hype, the system is selling out every where and if figures continue will pass the Xbox360 in sales.
