i'm sensing sarcasm, and none of that is new, computers have been doing hd, true surround sound (which may i add is just covering up what it really is) and yes if you can tell me what they have done for the industry, i praise you?

[QUOTE="zaku101"][QUOTE="RyanWare"][QUOTE="zaku101"] GC+No AA=Galaxy. GC+AA=sunshine+with lower graphics then Galaxy of course. Turn it off and you could have made Galaxy.

But there is a fundamental flaw with your argument. If the Wii - which is roughly twice as powerful as the GameCube - can only run Mario Galaxy at 30 fps, then how on earth could the GameCube run it at a playable framerate? And yet you say Mario Galaxy is possible on the GameCube. For this theory to be true, then you must be claiming that Mario Galaxy only uses half of the Wii's power. You must think that half of the Wii's RAM is sitting idle, unused. You must think the Wii's CPU and GPU are both working at only half their capacity. Right? If I'm wrong, then please - with your infinite wisdom - explain how.

The game can run in 60 FPS of course np. Developers often lower the FPS to make sure that the game does not have any lag or slow downs. They also did this with Halo 3 were they didn't make the game run at 60 FPS but it can run in 60 FPS of course. If you really take the time to look at the specs of the Wii and Xbox there almost the same so yes. There're processors are almost the same but the Xbox has a better graphic card with better shadier support. The real question is why does this game have no AA at all for a Wii game? It leaves me to think it was developed with the GC specs in mind.

I don't think you know how computers really work, because this post is full of fail. First off, the wii doesn't use shader models, so you can't say the xbox has better shader model support, the wii and GC us TEV units. I wasn't quite sure if you were agreeing that SMG doesn't run at 60 fps, if you were, you're wrong, if you weren't, i'm wrong. Third, anyone can buy the strongest parts off of a shelf but i think you'll find that because of the xbox's 'closed' architecture, it was limited to similar power of GC levels as the GC was fully optimizable. The Wii again was built around optimization, aswell as having a faster gpu, more ram, a higher bandwidth, more memory, more l1 and l2 cache memory and overall being better than the xbox.

you're right, graphics are a casual thing, its artificial love for what could be a crap game. Lets put it this way, if you stare at the screen longer than you actually interact with the game, theres something wrong with you

Aight, to start things off I have the Wii. Also I am a hardcore gamer, have been playing games since I was 4, loved the N64 and even loved the gamecube. Owned every system, loved all the big hits (besides Halo 2 and 3), and was a big Nintendo fan. Not a FPS junkie or graphics whore. Love a large diversity of games. I am very open minded, especially to all types of music.

Now. For my life I cannot figure out why gamers can actually find the Wii is a quality product. I own all the big hits. I played Galaxy, played TP, played Brawl. Now tell me. HOW CAN PEOPLE LIKE THIS SYSTEM. It is the only system I regret buying, and it practically destroyed my dreams for the system. Half the games are horrible mini-game compilations that are crap, Twilight princess was the worst Zelda, I never liked SSB after the first one, and Galaxy did nothing huge for me. Yet people rave on how fun the Wii is.

There is basically no content for hardcore gamers besides the few games listed, more than 3 quarters of the games released are less than mediocre, and all the big hits have been spent. What is left for the Wii? Besides Mario Kart(Diddy Kong racing owns this game), and Wii Fit (commercially funded joke). There is nothing left for my Wii. Looks like I have to reside on my 360 and PS3.

Sorry Nintendo, this race, in my eyes, you have failed.

ThaLootDog

you know i could've accepted your rant as an opinion until you said diddy kong racing owned mario kart, now i know you're just a fanboy that really has no games on their respective system to play currently.

[QUOTE="Yodas_Boy"]"Smarten up"? They're number 1, dude. They must be doing something right.thatdanmgood10x

say that to the GC which was more powerful and cheaper than the ps2.

also , the game that supposedly runs on unreal engine 3 on wii. Also, that pic is in game.

there num one cause it s the cheapest and kids fall into the whole gimmick and there paretns buy 4 them simnply a gimmick . just like gc but with new controller

Say that to GC, who lost to a weaker and more expensive console.

also this game apparently runs on the ported unreal engine 3.

[QUOTE="thomasbcperry"][QUOTE="StringGuard"][QUOTE="Tasman_basic"][QUOTE="StringGuard"]

:lol:

MS cut the giant and nnow he's pissed.

Nintendo's decided not to mess with the giant and is over playing in the sandbox.

StringGuard

funny that the sand box if chock full of money.

It's also full of dirty diapers from little Timmy and Grandma.

Tell me, is the PS2 not still selling? Is the PS3 not selling? You don't think Sony's making any profit over the past 2 gens and this one? :lol:

I'm glad you can laugh at your own jokes because I don't get them. Nintendo is killing this generation and it isn't just because of "little Timmy and Grandma" as you put it. It's because they have "little Timmy and Grandma" plus the most loyal, die hard fanbase ever in gaming. Unlike yourself (a fanboy) I find the good in all systems.

All systems go!

Oh.... I get it. When you're a Nintendo fanboy you're "most layal" and "die hard." But when you are a fan of anything else, you are just a fanboy.

The fact is, Nintendo isn't in the same ballgame as the 360/PS3. Acting as if it is is nothing more than hopeful on your part. Its low cost is a HUGE selling point but that low cost has a downside; crap graphics, crap A.I., and poor audio. Not to mention, most of the Nintendo sales are due to the "casual" games. Games that appeal to the kids and older casuals who would find most 360/PS3 too hard, too adult, and too intense.

hey sherlock, why didn't GC sell better than ps2 if it was cheaper and more powerful

I dont think Sony even sees Nintendo as competition anymore. They are going after a different demographic as Sony. Sony's competition is MS. Sony probably could have released something similar to the Wii, but they didnt, they pushed they're console hard, trying to advance in tech, as they usually do. kool-aids

i hope you don't think that's true?

lets put it this way, if you think that the ps2 was an all hardcore machine, you're baffled. This gen would be seriously lacking in sales if it weren't for the wii, so were did the rest of the people go?

also, anyone that thinks wii won't win is quite delusional and hopeful.
