I would sacrifice Motion controls without hesitation, for good hardware that can create innovative games.

??? Using The Same Controller as every other Console = Innovative?
Yes, better hardware = games thatcan do things, games of the past could not. I couldn't care less about shaking the Wiimote in videogames at the moment.
Well I know of one thing they will have what the other consoles will lack. Great exclusives which are actually fun to play.

Yes Nintendo-made games are great, I agree but Nintendo can't do it all themselves.
Online gaming was pretty Primative last Gen for Consoles.
The Gamecube was a bit up there with the current generation, last generation.
Next Gen though I'm expecting Nintendo to step up their game because I think they're sick of getting the short end of the stick when it comes to 3rd Party Support.

The gamecube did get most of the 3rd party games other systems got, which is one of the reasons I think the GCN was better than what the Wii has done right now. I hope the next Nintendo system picks up the slack, because I would love to get the nextSmash bros game, but the next nintendo system needs to have strong hardware, not just motion controls.
Since the N64, Nintendo has been behind the competition with the technology in their consoles in some way.
The N64: They opted to use cartridges that were expensive to make, and expensive to purchase and it coould not carry as much information as a CD.
The Gamecube: No online capabilities(that were really used), and they also opted to use smaller discs that while, cut on loading times, could not carry as much data as a normal-sized disc.
The Wii: They opted to focus on motion controls and forsake the hardware's graphical, and processing capabilites thus limiting the games and what could be done in them.(No advanced physics engines, graphics similar to the gamecube)
What feature or accessory will Nintendo forsake for their eventual new system, you think?
I would give it a 4/10 because the games were so limited due to Wii's weak hardware, and graphical capabilities. The motion controls to me were a gimmick and at times a hassle. I always preferred the GC controller if there was a choice. The only good games came from Nintendo, the 3rd party titles were weak, and shovelware is rampant. The only thing saving the Wii for me is it's backward compatability and homebrew channel. I think the Gamecube had more interesting games for it's time. It all comes down to the power of the hardware that can help the software progress and become innovative, not motion controls or peripherals.
Still looks like a mediocre shooter. Just because it's on the Wii doesn't mean you should lower your standards. This game offers NOTHING new. The Wii's hardware is so weak that no innovation in GAMEPLAY can be made, even with motion controls which actually turned out to be nothing of a gimmick.
I am not trolling I am just a concerned Wii owner. So do not ban me.
I don't understand what makes XBL cost 60 dollars. Can someone tell me, because in reality all I do is play games online and that's it, I don't really care about the extra stuff like, facebook. Sure Parties are great but, that's all. XBL in reallity should be $5-10. Another thing, not all my games are online games either, so...
