Actually, both are equally valid.

Nintendo does have a kiddy image. If it's a kiddy console or not, that's not relevant, nor the amount of mature games. Nintendo's IMAGE and reputation is that of a kiddie-friendly console, and usually also of a kiddie-focused console. It doesn't matter if it's true or not (it's partially true in that it's the only company to have a big focus on that market), it's about perception.

The other point is also slightly true. The Wii is comparable to the Xbox. While parts of it are better, parts of it aren't, so while it's not a full or even large regression, technologically, parts of it are inferior to last gen.

I would argue that Nintendo HAD a kiddy image, but everything about their recent strategy from the minimalist ipodish aesthetics of their technology to their advertising campaigns (Nicole Kidman WTF?) suggest otherwise. Likewise the software that is going in a simpistic more adultoriented direction (much to the chagrin of sheep)does nothing but scream adult to me.

and to complain that the Wii has REGRESSED (when even the most blinkered of fanboys will accept that the Wii is more powerful than the GC, despite all evidence to the contrary) is stupidity of the highest order

I have no problem with legitimate criticism of the Wii and i cant see myself ever getting one but ChiefFreeman is probably the most irrational Wii hater on these boards (almost every topic he makes is about the subject) and his views vary from the justifiable to the ridiculous

i never said they wouldn't

and PS3 software in 2008 PWNS Xbox 360 software 10 times over so we'll see how much you're laughing then

The only two Marvel games I can name off the top of my head that were truly great were Marvel vs. Capcom 2 and Incredible Hulk. Not the movie one. The good one.nyoroism

ultimate destruction i think it was called. This sounds totally crap though

TC selfowned

no

they'll be lucky to egt half that (and this is coming from a PS3 fan)
