Did a representative from Nintendo put her hand on your shoulder and force you into buying a Wii?

Word. I was hoping Wii would be different with the amount of good press it was getting.

Nope.

It wasn't an impulse buy. I BELIEVED.

Day 1, I disliked the waggle. Zelda was ruined for me (the awful camera control would sometimes give me motion sickness). Then the console clicked, and I liked it tons. I brought it home for Christmas and played a lot of Wii Sports with my brother. It was a good time. Then I flew back to WA and after Wario, I didn't touch the console again until SPM came out. And then I played SPM for about a week and it hasn't been turned on since.

Wii, like the Gamecube, will be a great purchase 5 years from now when a Wii and the 15 good games released over its lifespan are availabe together for a smaller price tag than Nintendo's next console.

Marble Mania is a lot of fun and an excellent use of the Wii controller (certainly better than SMB:BB!), although its over pretty quickly. Well, you could always try to better your times (getting gold trophies looks to be nearly impossible!), or play 2 players and race through the courses. I really dug the game and its aesthetic, and nearly everyone else who have played the game (on NeoGAF at least) seem to enjoy it. I certainly liked it a lot more than your typical overrated Wii titles like Excite Truck and Sonic.

Why, cause third parties actually bothered supporting the handhelds?

DS had a pretty shitty first year too. The difference between the Wii and GC is that the Wii is actually popular. I'm pretty sure you'll see a better library on Wii than GC (though that might not be saying much).

Himu · « **Reply #82 on:** May 30, 2007, 07:23:50 PM »

DS didn't have a shitty first year. It had an okay first year, but even then, by the time E3 rolled around we knew what was coming out that fall, and that fall certainly did NOT have a shitty line up. Wii, at this point, has 2 worthwhile games this fall.

Oblivion · « **Reply #83 on:** May 30, 2007, 07:28:26 PM »

I remember people complaining about the huge draught for the first year, but whatever.

Of course Wii doesn't have too many good games announced, because it basically blindsided the industry. Now third parties are trying to scurry to take advantage.

futami · « **Reply #84 on:** May 31, 2007, 12:30:35 AM »

why is anyone entertaining this gormless dickhead?

as if lack of "originality," assuming what the gimp says is true, precludes one's enjoyment of what's arriving on the ps3.

more to the point, is "originality" inherently welcome?

I'm guessing those two for you are Mario and Metroid? Three if you're not a Super Smash Bros hater. Four if No More Heroes makes it out this year.

futami · « **Reply #86 on:** May 31, 2007, 12:54:12 AM »

with its inferior graphics output, relative to what even average titles on the ps3 and 360 achieve, every game coming to the wii is forgettable -- at that price.

$250 for an antiquated system is a ripoff.

Yes, Mario and Metroid. Three if No More Heroes drops. I MAY get Smash. I dunno. I'm not a big fan but it's something for my Wii so...I might as well get some new multiplayer action for the thing.

Like Futami said, I've seen no evidence to support this. Maybe third parties looking for cash ins, but not for bringing out quality games, DESPITE the wii's popularity.

futami · « **Reply #88 on:** May 31, 2007, 10:29:03 AM »

developers are, in many respects, artists; engineers of a evocative stimuli that look to elicit an emotional response from the gaming public.

the fact is, they WANT to push the boundaries, surmounting barriers that were previously uchallengable, taking hold of new technology to create worlds that shame what was achievable last gen

the 360 and PS3 offer them a palette that the Wii can't.

i can't fathom how ANYONE could spend $250 on that sham of a system.

i agree, which is why i haven't purchased a ps3.

to spite sony, i won't own one until the priced has dropped significantly.

however, i still think the 360 offers even less value, as far as i'm concerned.

not impressed by its technology or the catalog of games available and slated to arrive.

I just played the beta...

IT was totally kicking ass...

Then I was on the island map with the 2 bridges (second map on CTF rotation) I drove my jeep twoards the enemy base, the picked off my gunner, they shot out my tires OR the control had some serious glit for a second...anyway it was epic - I started driving up those ramps twoards the flag.

I drove past two enemy fighters shooting mech guns at me...I jump off of the last platform before the flag and crash into a manned enemy tank....my jeep is wedged in and i cant escape....he slowly turns his turret to kill me....so I jump out over his shot which destroys the jeep, onto his top...then off the other side as i turn and lob a grenade into his side....i land on my feet and am about to thro the second frag under him when th PS3 froze and had to be hard reset....

HORRIBLE COKKIN TIMING.

Anyone else getting Warhawk freezes?

Voice chat works, I always hear a bunch of preteens swearing and guys burping into their mics.

I'm terrible at this game, but I've had a lot of fun. I tend to hop into a Warhawk and fly away from the action, collecting shit and admiring the pretty backdrops.

it Freezes for me too often

I dont know why I desire to waste my time with a beta - oh well im gonna move on - the final product for this will be awesome tho..so many weapons - im especially fond of the numerous types of mounted gun turrets you can take control of...

Time for some PS3 R6 Vegas.
