Look at all the threads around here: "Nintendo doesn't deserve it's success", "Wiiis bad for the industry", blah blah blah

People get so upset. Nintendo is dominating. Deal.

Jealous of the sales maybe, but probably not of the games.

Really? Why do you care how many consoles a system sells? You bought the one you wanted didnt you? I dont care how many Wii consoles get sold, wont effect my life any. I just dont like the Wii cause Nintendo forgot how to come up with original ideas about 10 years ago.

The people and the Wii's sales are what people are referring to when they say "success". Wellconsumers determine sales and thus determne the sucess, so it seems ridiculous that people are the Wii doesn't deserve it.

Actually it does. If the system you buy doesn't sell well, then no one is going to want to make games for it.

There are far more PS3 bashings threads than Wii ones.
But Wii bashing threads have this sort deep-down-to-the-core anti-feeling about them that the PS3 can only dream of getting.



It's really a question of quantity vs quality here.

Both consoles right now are poor. I don't understand some of the PS3 bashing because it's a good system with lack of games, Wii is a crap system with lack of games.

Haha, almost all of the known Wii-haters everyone called has entered this thread thus far. :lol:

Anyway, I don't think they are jealous. They are too busy enjoying the games on their respective consoles, just like us Wii-owners should be too busy playing games to pay any attention to their endless ranting.

I own a Wii and dollar for dollar, its the worst, second only to the PS3. If Nintendo's sales volume is more important to you than gaming, I guess you should feel good.. Otherwise if I were a Wii-only gamer, I'd be crying my little sheep eyes out right now.

You sure it won't affect your life? Furthermore, when did Microsoft or Sony come up with something original?

Wii dominates and gameing sufferes. End of story.

In 10 years if every company follows Nintendo we wont have epic games like Halo, World in Conflict, Bioshock, Metal Gear Solid, Oblivion, Half Life, and many more. Basically any game that uses atmosphere, graphics, storyline, and immersive gameplay through advanced level design, A.I., unqiue character control using phsyics and the enviroment.

Games will become just fun, gimmiky games that are good playing with your friends for a few hours. Nothing memorable that will last forever.

Yeah, more or less my sentiments. The Wii is going a long way to getting a solid game lineup this holiday, but it still has a way to go.

As for all the Sheep saying it deserves its success completely, are you the same Sheep who have been saying "It's all about the games!" for decades now?

In what way is that pathetic? I can say that Ps3 is 32 PS2's duck-taped together with new controllers too.

No. The system has the power of an Xbox and more features. Downloading old NES games is pretty cool, espeically the ****cs.

Sales equate to more support but this doesn't seem the case for Wii. Or at least the support is there in numbers but poor in execution.

don't be silly. as long as there is a market for those games there will be ppl making them.
