[QUOTE="Animal-Mother"][QUOTE="JabbaDaHutt30"][QUOTE="HarlockJC"] The idea of using one avatar that you designed to play in a game. Rather than some generic NP for each game? We should be upset by that?

Not really. It shows Nintendork's popularity, however. The Mii's are a bunch of generich characters with little customization options. They were designed for casuals and for being used in casual games. Customizing your own character and using it in other games is a great idea, but Nintendork's approach is quite lame.

How is it lame if they created it?

It's lame because the customization options of the Mii's are bland, and the Mii's could look a little better themselves - not necessarily like LBP though. Besides that, they're only used in crappy games.

Would you want them to design a Mii then that would be used in games like Halo or Bioshock? Because myself I like the idea but I would rather only have them be used in casual games. There are many casual games which can be quite fun and I would rather the Mii or the avatar thought to stay in casual games. So to me it seems the right approach. Keep them in the games they were meant for. I would not want a generic avatar for every game. Games with a story do not need them only arcade and simple games should use them.

No, I would have liked Mii's to look more detailed, more interesting with more customization options; not just different skin/hair color or something. More like LPB.

I mean just look at this! This is ridiculous:

That's the problem right here. We have Nintendork to thank for that. It's my entire point.

Have you sold millions of systems that instated a new type of gameplay? People are copying nintendo for a reason, and it aint because their dorky

Nintendork hasn't created a new type of gameplay. The Wii remote is used just like a regular controller. The good games Nintendo has released don't need that controller, just casual games that would otherwise appear even more bland without the games making some use of the controller.

So are we blaming Nintendo for making gaming more accessible? is that what we are doing now? So let me get this straight. Nintendo doesn't think HD gaming is needed just yet so instead they decide to enhance how you PLAY a game through a unique controller. They get laughed at by the game development community initially but is welcomed with open arms by the consumer. Now they come out of a world of s--t smelling like roses and we are blaming them for what was a gross under-estimation on the game development community's part? I for one don't buy it. If anything, this is a life lesson for everyone in the business. The lesson is to NEVER burn your bridges which alot of devs / publishers did in droves in regards to the Wii's selling potential.

If they had released more games like Zelda and SMG I wouldn't complain. They aren't even trying to release good *and* accessible games anymore; just games that are accessible.

[QUOTE="JabbaDaHutt30"][QUOTE="HarlockJC"] There are games like Mario Tennis on every game system. Some people like myself rather play an arcade sports game over a sim sports game.HarlockJC
Even the way the system is built and the software it comes packaged with reeks of 'casual'. The controller, the console hardware, Wii Sports, Mii's...

Funny you talk about the Mii when it seems the other systems are trying to build on the Mii's success. .

I wanted to reinstall The Orange Box games but unfortunately, I have a problem:

When I try to reinstall, it says that my CD key is a duplicate; it won't let me install twice. I've heard that I should logon to my Steam account, because I can download the games from there. To my regret, I only see L4D - a game I bought recently - available for reinstallation. I don't remember if this is the account I've installed those games on. So what do I do?
