everytime i hear ppl say like omg sony lied about 4d graphics an huge bogus claims an look at there outrageous advertising

ppl sayin it was the price is laughable high HOW CAN THAT BE? it wasn't the most expensive console in history there was tons of expensive crap b4 like neogeo/turbo grfx 16/sega cd an all that other junk that was near or over 600 dollars BACK when money was less inflated meanin those systems were even more expesnive an outrageous an didnt have the brand or the games of quality like the ps3 sony has.

plus were not talkin a huge price gap 2 wii's = 500 dollars wii with a few games = 500 dollars an THE PS3 is 400 dollars now comin down super fast an has tech worth its pricetag

now im a gamer been around awhile THERE IS NOTHin wrong with sony's advertisin even the baby ad's were kinda interestin an like gettin ppl talkin about it

THE WII? there advertisements are terrible jokes

they have a perfectly racial stereotypical group of beautiful 25 year old fake models fake gaming one black/white/hispanic/asian and there all diff sexes AN THERE ADVERTISEMNTS JUST LOOK SO pathetic an fake everyone is smiling an playin a game how no gameer does it looks so misleadin not even a grown adult or parent or anyone who has ever heard of gamin could take these commercials seriously because they atleast have heard of video games an kno ppl play them diff then that from movies or other thigns

nintendo is so fake an lame while sony atleast knows what its doing for gamers an when it messees up it doesnt say oh lets just keep up with the same crap no they fix stuff an realizez gamers arent stupid unlike nintendo who hasnt learned anythin since the cube to appealing to gamers from the start an just does tons of bad things an faeks ppl out

man everytime nintendo does somethin lame like wii fit ppl are like o well its nintendo there aloud to do dumb sutff like that they earned there right for bein so old skool an losing the past 2 gens so they can do weird stuff liek that an it will sell good, IF SONY MADE A ps3 fit first they woulda been laughed out of industry an gmaers woulda been mockin it 1000x more then wii fit

im sick of the dbl standards that sony faces in the indsutry

im sick of the free rides nintendo gets just cuz gamers have sympathy for it losin so badly the past 2 gens an bein old skool IM OLD SKOOL an dont give anyone free rides an dont throw extra attack at gamin companies who have been doin extra good lately an were a little cocky an made some mistakes

last time i checked nintendo was ahead in the console war.... and the PS3 has completely flopped.

when a system completely flops, its easier to focus the negativity on it, instead of one that is flourishing like nintendo.

dont crack on the wii because its innovative and new, that **** hurts the industry

Because Nintendo has the sales to back its mistakes...

Which would mean it isn't making any mistakes if sales are up there, and consequently, you cannot say it is doing anything bad, to the world's eye.

a plastic wireless laser compuer mouse is more innovative then the wii the only reason its sellin cuz of bogus lies that nintendo said at e3

all that gamers hve learned from this is that u make a new cvontroller u say it can do all thise stuff u promise a nerw virtual reality, u dont even have to deliver on the promise just claim an it will sell through the roof cuz it will put gamers in shock an they will so in shock that they hav to buy an see it just make it a cheap price liek 250 so its even hardeer to say no at launch

nintendo didnt innovat they killed innovation an now will prolly see xbox 3 an ps4 250 dollar plastic toys with new controls an bad gfrfx an real gamers will be in terror an fear as of this

It's not a huge price gap when you can get 2 wii's for a bit more than 1 ps3? And it's a mistake to have an advert with a multi cultural group?

im afraid something might have been lost in the translation here but i got the part about the wii "not innovating but killing innovation".

millions of people disagree with you. im an avid 360 gamer but even i would drop my controller if my buddies brought one of their wiis over. the definition of innovation "something new or different introduced."

honestly, sometimes the controllers we love just have to be set aside for this INNOVATIVE system and playing method.

If we didnt have systems like the wii, gaming would become photo-realistic and have the best sounds, but the gameplay would start to lack.

i have been gamin since atari an ive seen some weird controllers like keyboard types an double balls with wheels on it for certain games on that system

and MOUSE/keyboard gaming = infinitely superior to the wii control

its more precise its everythin u want in a FPS its so easy to move an see an it actual becomes almost real

playin a FPS with analog or wii mote is down right terribel compared toa MOUSE/keyboard an so are many other games if the wii mote brought lots to gamin as u claim

have u ever played a single game on a PC with a mouse an keyboard b4?

Nintendo has a army behind them. PS3 is second in the console battle(games wise if you ask me) people are just trying to bash it cause they can now before if they did PS2 fans would own them.

cuz let me expalin this to u man i can buy a ps3 for 400 dollars an get a few blu-ray movies free an buy 2 games for 100 more bux now or i can buy wii for 250 with 5 games now for 500 bux

if u ask me which is the beter deal the PS3 of course cuz there games ar higher quality an even if u get more games with the wii the ps3 ones are better an worth the price more then the wii ones so that the price becomes better quality instead of quanitity

u see whart i mean the ps3 is quality the wii is quanittiy

i played both battlefield 2 and 2142 and can honestly say the 360 controller is much better.

how can you say wasd and a mouse are more accurate in terms of aiming and turning than a controller with sticks?

also, does your keyboard have the ability to vibrate?

seriously, i thought we were talking about sony and nintendo. whered you come from?

You said in your OP that " Nintendo hasn't learned anything since the cube about appealing to gamers." If that was the case how the hell have Nintendo managed to sell 13m+ consoles in record-breaking time?

Seriously, the existence of your constant wii bashing threads is so sad. We know you're upset Wii is doing well, well boo hoo. Grab a tissue, dry your eyes and blow your nose. Now that THAT is out of your system, go play your superior PS3 games. The more threads you post, the more people are pitying you, seriously. You're spending more time on a console you DON'T own than one you DO own.

Ok, so basically you take issue with Nintendo portraying people of different races and ages enjoying a product of theirs means "nintendo is so fake an lame".

But even though Sony claims the PS3 will be in 4D, they "realizez gamers arent stupid".

Gee, to me it sort of does look like they think we're stupid.

How is claiming something so ridiculous, so intangible, so abstract, not utterly insulting to our whole hobby? How has Sony not basically said, we don't think you can form coherent thoughts, and that you will gobble up everything we've said.

How is that not WORSE than Nintendo putting smiling interracial groups in ads?

Your topics always make me smile.

First off, the reason so many people bashed Sony for the PS3's price is exactly because of those past systems that you mentioned. They all failed because they were so much more expensive than the other options. I still have my tg-16 w/ cd and owned a Sega CD.

Secondly, "Oh no! Ads are stagedand faked and not real! Stop the presses!"I bet that little old lady didn't fall down either or that if you use Axe bodyspray, girls don't chase you down and rip your clothes off. Whether the Wii ads represent your experience as a gamer or not doesn't matter. What Nintendo is trying to show is that a diverse group of people can have fun playing the Wii. Based on personal experiences as well as those of other Wii owners on these forums I'd wager that aside from the 2 guys showing up with a Wii, the ads are somewhat correct.

I game with girls frequently. A girl I'm currently involved with has an N64 hooked up to her TV, and we play smash and Mario cart. She also enjoys playing Wii games. My friend's girl Friend plays Wii Sports with us all the time.

My mom also games. She hadn't done it since Super Mario World on the Super Nintendo, but she's acctually playing Wii now. She likes to play Wii bowling.

Also, while not of all different ages, when my friend brought back his Wii last year, we had blacks, Asian, and whites, both male and female in a room, taking turns playing games of various Wii Sports. Everyone was having a good time, and pretty much everyone loved it.

I've also had an all ages play session, when I played with my family at Thanksgiving. My grandparents, siblings, aunts and uncles all gave it a try. Everyone thought it was fun.

In my dorm, since all our rooms are networked, we also have Halo Lan parties. The girls love to get in on it too. Some may not be very good, but you should listen to some of them talk when playing. They can yell profanities like the best of them when they're getting killed.

So in my experience, the things you mentioned never happen, in fact do. Just because you're a reclusive shut in doesn't mean the rest of us don't game with people outside the 15-35 male target demographic.

Because Nintendo loves you and wants you to be happy and will tuck you in at night.

making threads based only on your personal opinion is pointless and you're just showing us what a hater you are. you're better off blogging it because coming here just means you like whining.

do you remember that episode of the twilight zone where there was this boy who could make people dissapear just by thinking about it? and all the towns people had to think happy thoughts or he would erase them? or do you even remember the simpsons parody of that episode? well there is your answer. nintendo can erase you from existence.

on a serious note, who cares anymore. all this time wasted making threads and replying in them could be spent on school, a job, or maybe even, playing video games :O. excuse me while i go play something

[QUOTE="lllTheorylll"]

last time i checked nintendo was ahead in the console war.... and the PS3 has completely flopped.

when a system completely flops, its easier to focus the negativity on it, instead of one that is flourishing like nintendo.

dont crack on the wii because its innovative and new, that **** hurts the industry

ProtossRushX

a plastic wireless laser compuer mouse is more innovative then the wii the only reason its sellin cuz of bogus lies that nintendo said at e3

all that gamers hve learned from this is that u make a new cvontroller u say it can do all thise stuff u promise a nerw virtual reality, u dont even have to deliver on the promise just claim an it will sell through the roof cuz it will put gamers in shock an they will so in shock that they hav to buy an see it just make it a cheap price liek 250 so its even hardeer to say no at launch

nintendo didnt innovat they killed innovation an now will prolly see xbox 3 an ps4 250 dollar plastic toys with new controls an bad gfrfx an real gamers will be in terror an fear as of this

how many casuals watched nintendos e3 confrence?

i played both battlefield 2 and 2142 and can honestly say the 360 controller is much better.

how can you say wasd and a mouse are more accurate in terms of aiming and turning than a controller with sticks?

also, does your keyboard have the ability to vibrate?

seriously, i thought we were talking about sony and nintendo. whered you come from?

lllTheorylll

Because a Mouse is more accurate in terms of aiming. Its a damn fact that everyone knows.

If you think people don't make a big deal when Nindendo makes a mistake, then you wern't on system wars when Nintendo anounced no HD, no nextgen disc format, friend codes,or lack of processing power.

everytime i hear ppl say like omg sony lied about 4d graphics an huge bogus claims an look at there outrageous advertising

ppl sayin it was the price is laughable high HOW CAN THAT BE? it wasn't the most expensive console in history there was tons of expensive crap b4 like neogeo/turbo grfx 16/sega cd an all that other junk that was near or over 600 dollars BACK when money was less inflated meanin those systems were even more expesnive an outrageous an didnt have the brand or the games of quality like the ps3 sony has.

plus were not talkin a huge price gap 2 wii's = 500 dollars wii with a few games = 500 dollars an THE PS3 is 400 dollars now comin down super fast an has tech worth its pricetag

now im a gamer been around awhile THERE IS NOTHin wrong with sony's advertisin even the baby ad's were kinda interestin an like gettin ppl talkin about it

THE WII? there advertisements are terrible jokes

they have a perfectly racial stereotypical group of beautiful 25 year old fake models fake gaming one black/white/hispanic/asian and there all diff sexes AN THERE ADVERTISEMNTS JUST LOOK SO pathetic an fake everyone is smiling an playin a game how no gameer does it looks so misleadin not even a grown adult or parent or anyone who has ever heard of gamin could take these commercials seriously because they atleast have heard of video games an kno ppl play them diff then that from movies or other thigns

nintendo is so fake an lame while sony atleast knows what its doing for gamers an when it messees up it doesnt say oh lets just keep up with the same crap no they fix stuff an realizez gamers arent stupid unlike nintendo who hasnt learned anythin since the cube to appealing to gamers from the start an just does tons of bad things an faeks ppl out

man everytime nintendo does somethin lame like wii fit ppl are like o well its nintendo there aloud to do dumb sutff like that they earned there right for bein so old skool an losing the past 2 gens so they can do weird stuff liek that an it will sell good, IF SONY MADE A ps3 fit first they woulda been laughed out of industry an gmaers woulda been mockin it 1000x more then wii fit

im sick of the dbl standards that sony faces in the indsutry

im sick of the free rides nintendo gets just cuz gamers have sympathy for it losin so badly the past 2 gens an bein old skool IM OLD SKOOL an dont give anyone free rides an dont throw extra attack at gamin companies who have been doin extra good lately an were a little cocky an made some mistakes

ProtossRushX

Don't worry, the video game industry isn't immune to the awful PR cycle that most mass-media wears like a Scout's Badge, I suspect Nintendo will have a huge backlash within the coming years, just look at Sony's ceremonious fall from grace in the media.
