[QUOTE="jg4xchamp"]cool you guys measure the wii by wii fit, and ill measure the wii by mario galaxy, metroid prime 3, no more heroes, smash bros, etc
seriousaly why is this game brought up every time.
Should we start measuring the PS3 by genji or measure the 360 by Hour of Victory.jet052006
Well nintendo did go kinda out of their way to display Wii fit at E3, much longer than anyother game, including the games you listed.
thats great. and Sony had a stage demo thats basically become infamous of Genji.[QUOTE="Nuck81"]Why are some people so threatened by the Wii?rowzzr
not threatened. just annoyed. annoyed by those braggarts who keep bragging about sales when clearly, the selling points are not the main great hits but the casuals who buy the garbage bin set.
You mean like the PS2 and all those Madden, singstar, guitar hero and EyeToy sales.
Yea, cows lemmings and hermits just need to realize, that the wii is here to say, offering games to play with your family, dont forget games are supposed to be about FUN... have fun with your onlline-only multiplayer games, the Wii brings video games back to the FAMILY.Koba123
Yeah, but I'm not gonna pay $1000 for five boards so that they have something to sit on.
Btw, gaming started with the hardcore, Wii isn't bringing anything back, it's going in a new direction.
Are you telling me I didn't have fun playing GOW, FF games, Gears, BioShock, etc.?
Why are some people so threatened by the Wii?Nuck81
Wii fit has gone to far! Don't say bad things about it or the Wii Fit pad will grab the nearest knife and stab you in the back betraying it!
Then Wii-Fit is going to take your wallet (with your credit card in it, presumably) and car keys and drive ito Las Vegas, Nevada so it can spend all your money while gambling (No, you can't cancel the card either, because Wii Fit cut your telephone line and you realize that you left your cell phone in your car). After it's satisfied with that, it will drive your car over a cliff, or into a large body of water, but not before it can escape and return to Japan (by mailing itself). There it will find it's way back to the Nintendo HQ so it can complete it's mission. Then they'll just export it to a retailer in the US so the cycle can start again.
Yeah now you know the truth. You fearful now? Yes? No?
That fear is real, man.
XD

[QUOTE="ImaPirate0202"]Thank you for the innovation Nintendo.-wii60-
Since u're a cow ofcourse u'll bash it, but if i was made by your god sony that could be a different story.
Either way, it would suck and no one would be praising it. And what is your problem? :?
I don't seem to understand what this topic is about?
The wii fit has been talked about since at least the summer, this isn't new news or anything. If you've been following it, it's selling very well in Japan.
I just don't get what the posts here are about, there are many articles on this site alone about it.
[QUOTE="kryloc"]It's a nintendo console :-/
Udsen
N64 was damn fine and so were NES and SNES.
Hell, even GCN was more hardcore than Wii.
...It's a Nintendo console, yes. But this time they wanted to take a different approach and expand the market. In turn, this may lessen the hardcore demographic and increase the NON-GAMER demographic.
It's not the same Nintendo.
while nintendo is trying to get more new ppl into the market have they really abandoned the hardcore like you believe? I still see the core nintendo games that they are know from coming out. it's like the DS. sure they have brainage and nintendogs but they still put out zelda, metriod, mario, pokemon and advanced wars.(among others)
You know, around the time WiiFit hits NA, we'll also have Super Smash Bros Brawl and an online enabled Mario Kart.
That's just what nintendo is offering in the next handful of months.* I can't help but wonder if people forget about these games when they assume nintendo is abandoning the gamer. I also wonder if these same people are truelly bothered by wii fit, or would have found another reason to hate a nintendo console had wii fit not existed.
*to clarify, i mean that's not accouting for 3rd party support

blahzor
that, and let's not forget the recent release of no more heroes, completely a gamer's game.
Exactly. While they're here bashing WiiFit, I'll be online with Smash Bros. Brawl having the time of my life.You know, around the time WiiFit hits NA, we'll also have Super Smash Bros Brawl and an online enabled Mario Kart.

I would like to apologize for my earlier, rather trollish comment. That was childish of me.
However, I would like to understand why so many of you hate wiifit. The hatred it recieves is downright insane. I've heard more about this game from Wii-haters than I have from Wii-fans(most of whom are more concerned with Brawl and NMH, by the way). That, to me, is pretty telling in and of itself. I fail to see how this game's existance, or even the Wii's existance, interferes with the rest of the game industry. All three of the current consoles have plenty of games that appeal to traditional gamers. Why do you all feel so violated by the fact that a company wishes to expand the market? Especially when you are still getting what you want. I mean, I understand and agree with many of the arguements brought against Nintendo in other areas (online, 3rd parties, etc.), but the whole anti-Wiifit campaign people seem to be on confounds me.
This really bizarre to me. Personally, I think Wiifit is interesting, but I would probably never buy it. I just dont get alot of the hate. Why do so many of you hate this game so much? I really want to know.
Or maybe I should just let it go. I suppose there are some things I'm not meant to understand. =/
[QUOTE="Nuck81"]Why are some people so threatened by the Wii?Udsen
It's not that we're threatened, we just like to play games. Wii Fit seems way too much work for what you truly get out of it (in terms of it being a game)
This is why I'm disliking Nintendo. They just don't care about the hardcore market to keep gamers coming back for more. SMG was fantastic and I'm sure SSBB will be great but they just don't seem dedicated. They're taking the idea of "expanding" the market a little too far.

you should not understand. just like some democrats hate the republican party for no other reason than them being republican and vice-versa. despite a good effort it will be frowned upon.
