Wii is Mediocre at Best...

Lets face it, for Hardcore gamers the Wii is no more than an hour or two of fun with friends and lets face it besides Madworld, No more heroes and maybe even Super Smash Bros Brawl the games do not appeal to Hardcore gamers. The online is TERRIBLE and Wii-codes are a FAIL but other than that there arent many games to have fun with online. Wii is more of a second or third console because you cant really sit there and have some Hardcore fun for more that an Hour. Its a shame that the Wii is nothing like the Nintedo 64 and that it doesnt appeal to Harcore gamers as much as 360, PC and PS3. I have a message for Nintendo...

The average gamer is around 30 (here in Australia anyway) and you need to make more games appeal to this age groups, lets be honest would 30 year olds want to play a game like God of War or Mario? Thats my point well these games are not 'Babyish' but they do not appeal to them as much.

PLEASE NOTE - The Wii is still a fun console to play a bit with friends but lets face it no Hardcore gamers can let this console be there First console (including PC). I am not a Fanboy anymore (despite my name...) and these are just plain old' facts.

Hardcore gamer? You think you're a hardcore gamer? No, those Koreans who compete in Major League Gaming, they're the real hardcore gamers. You're not a 'hardcore' gamer for liking only mature titles.

inferior in every single way you can think of. İ dont know how people call it good.kaangonultas

Some people actually like motion sensing technology and games that use it just like people here like graphical technology and games that use it.

Radical, I know.

So Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is not hardcore?

Actually over here in Australia the average gamer age is now around 35.

But you forgot to lost games such as SMG, Nights, Zelda, Metroidand some others are hardcore.

Though i agree with the online, it is garbage.

Good wii games are too few and far betwwen, that's why, imo, it's mediocre

TC i hear ya , unfortunately the wiilooks reallyold now compared to the games the other consoles recieve constantly from 2008 till now , even the motion controls (which arent as fun as at the wii launch anymore for me) can't save the fun with bad usage by software , i even rather played my wii - games on classic controller anyway (those few supported games) , the last games which i really liked for wii was Okami & SMG& Kart, the last game i bought was Day of Crisissince thennothing even interrested for me then on wii , i was so upset by looking at the (NO GOOD) planned wii releasesthat i had to buy an PS3 and that was the best thing i could do - now i can play REAL soulcalibur , REAL Dead space , REAL Resident evil etc. , i'll keep my wii anyways for those rare good tiltes that might come sometimes but my wii wasnt turned on since november last year and just because there nothing forME to play.

If you're comparing the hardware, then all of us know that the graphics engine for the wii is last gen.

But to determine the quality of a console is not by it's virtual capacity, but the games that the console boasts.

If you are talking about the quality of games in the wii, by an average, then it's mediocre at best, but if you emphasize on the ones that are worth your video gaming time, then the wii is an excellent console.

Super Mario Galaxy, imo, is the best platformer in the last two generations.

So Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is not hardcore?

It's my primary console and I guess I'm what you would consider a "hardcore" gamer (i.e. one who plays games as a serious hobby).

Sure, there are things it could improve on. But, I still have fun with it.

Red steel, LOL Haven't heard of that game since it was hyped by the sheep as a flag ship title back when the wii was still called the nintendo revolution :lol:

Ok I have a half decent PC, wii and 360. My PC and wii get near enough the same amount of play time when it comes to games, some days the PC will get more and some the wii will. The least played is the 360, not saying its a bad console just that I find more games that interest me more on either my PC or wii.

TC your right, the Wii is garbage, but a lot of gamers fell for the hype bought it and now feel the need to defend it.

Guys understand i am not being a fanboy and trying to 'Bag' the WiiPSfanboy101

Then you are doing a really good imitation of a fanboy, Psfanboy101.

You're wrong, you're TOTALLY wrong....

The Wii is a piece of ***** at best :P

The wii is wiik

Also the Wii's Top Rated List shows it all http://au.gamespot.com/wii/index.html?tag=nav-top;wii&navclk=wii (bottom of page) This is the PC's List http://au.gamespot.com/pc/index.html?tag=nav-top;pc&navclk=pc (bottom of page) See what i mean?PSfanboy101

The Wii has 2 AAA, 4 AA and 2 AA and one C game, vs 1 AAA, 4 AA, 1 A, 3 < D games for the PC?

Also, I've got 6 games for the Wii that I still have to finish (SMG, Madworld, Metroid Prime 3, Resident Evil 4, Zack and Wiki and MM9) and a couple of other games that are fun to play when I've got others over (Wii Sports, Hotd 2+3) plus quite a few games that I still want to get once I finished some, with more coming out in the next months as well. I don't see a reason to complain.

As long a game is good and fun, then that all should matters whether it hardcore or not, and the Wii has many of those. Besides there are many more games on the Wii then NMH, Madworld, and SSBB that "hardcore" can enjoy.

yes the games you've listed are cool but there is like at least 10 times more of such great games on other plattforms so if you finish a game you can just go to another game and not have to play the same few good games over and over again , and online gaming isnt really that good that is a fact

Wii is a 'novelty' to developers and gamers that own and play other consoles.

Is wii play truly the greatest game ever? If it is then next gen is already over.

The TC expects to be taken seriously when his username is "PSfanboy101"? :|

Motion sensing is a joke. For Brawl, its best game, I use the gamecube controller. No more Heroes was good, Madworld was entertaining, but thats about it. It can hold my attention span for an hour at most. Online for Brawl is equally as terrible.
