Wii games are targeted towards children

Have you noticed that with a lot of interviews about the Wii, developers are saying "We want to make the game easy to play, with this new controller" Read between the lines, what they are saying is that they know only kids buy the Wii, so they need to make games aimed towards kids.

Take for instance Mortal Combat on Wii. The people that buy the Wii cant pull off the super moves, so they have to dumb down the game, replacing it with 'easy to use controlls'. I dont want an easy game, I want to be challenged by it. Same with SSX, the challenge has been taken away.

Even Nintendo is dumbing down their games. RPGs are challenging, so they couldnt put that on Wii, so they removed all the RPG parts of Super Paper Mario, leaving you with a bland sidescrolling platformer that we've seen for the past 20 years. (By the way, why the hell is that game hyped AAA, sheep must be really grasping for straws.)

With PS3 its different, gameplay isnt being lost through the SIXAXIS controller, its being retained. Look at GTA IV, for instance. My dad works at SOny so I get early builds of games, and I have a short demo of GTA IV, and believe me its very challenging. But if this was on the Wii, not only would all the violence have to be toned down, but so would the challenge, because sheep cant handle hard games. I've played Zelda OoT, I completed it in like an hour it was so easy.

If you all want your games to be a walk through the park, buy a Wii, but I'll stcik with challenging games like GTA IV

I guess it depends on taste. I don't really like it.

maybe they'll give you less time on the clock this gen.. you know, to ramp up the brilliant challenge

[QUOTE="joeblak"]GTA challenging? :lol::lol::lol:haris12121212

Maybe a few side missions, but definitely not the storyline missions. Games are much easier nowadays.  

I started skimming over your post. I saw Mortal Kombat. I left.

That was awesome. fatzombiepigeon

No, not so much.  He's far too obvious about it.

Your dad works at Sony? im sorry. Wii is made to make gaming easier. That doesnt mean simpler. Just easier. PS3 has the dumbest controller ever. 4 buttons on the top? whats the learning curve for that? I guess u have to spend all your time learning the controls for a Ps3, doesnt leave much time for a social life. But i guess that never came up as a conflict for Playstation owners.beinss

the hardest missions in gta:sa weren't even required to beat the game

i'm talking about the missions you get from david cross' character . no not tobias

the stupid shooting one i managed to beat by luck after 10 tries 

and the mission after it was hard just due to crappy random gasoline , and flying the difficult to control toy airplane  

the flight, melee, and targeting all felt so tacked on

[QUOTE="joeblak"]GTA challenging? :lol::lol::lol:PS3_FTW

i've beaten gta 3, vc, and sa without using cheats the first time through and i didn't break a sweat. They're easy games, although there are missions that are a bit difficult, like that one where you have to blow up the helicopter at the end of the highway in sa, or the one where you have to shoot down the plane and get the packages and then drive away in gta3, but for the most part, gta games are easy.

Kinda what someone said above.

For the most part:

PS3/360 = PG-13/R

Wii = G

Now the 360/PS3 might have a few G and the Wii might have a few R but those are in the minority.

Some people like R rated "movies" while others like G.

Now is the Wii a kids console?  I dont think it is but with all the "G" games I will never pick one up because I was never interested in Nintendos Zelda and Mario games.  And it is looked at as a kids console with all the kids games that are made for it. 

I really believe in the future a lot of people will own a Wii but own very few games.  I know that I would lose interest, as I already have while playing at a friends.  Game sales will go down but people will still buy a Wii because of its price, making it an impulse buy.  However, after a few months/years it will just sit by the TV and become another dust collector.

Seriously?
Honestly, my dad works at Sony, too!
 I got that early build, and it is seriously the greatest game ever. What was your favorite part?
