cant wait for the next wii

"Yeah we made the graphics like the Snes, production costs us about 8p per unit and we are selling it for £200.00 with the wii suit, where even pissing can be replicated 1:1 on screen!"

Miyamota "Yeah i got up and thought wouldnt that make a great game, so i am now creating Wii Wake Up, then had breakfast and thought wouldnt that make a great game, so im making Wii Toast (Jam and Marmalade sold seperate) then i went to work and and thought........" does he even try anymore?, what happened to the creator of New and Innovative games!, sure the wii was inovation but now the guy just makes what ever he see`s or does, seriously if he was always like that then the guy had a trippy teenage life.

really i cant belive people are still buying into Nintendos s**t, its really overboard now, even capcoms great games were ignored, but fecking Wii Music will top everything, and all you do is move the Wii Mote while pressing any Button!!!! seriously that s just a piss take, its like he just cant be arsed making GAMES anymore.

At least we know EA`s evil! and there games actually do have some gameplay.

But look how its always Ninty in the top 10!!

The Nintendo Wii is fun but its lacking games they all look pretty crap and didn't Nintendo at one point say the console will be cheap and so will the games??

£40 a pop for a Wii version of a game that looks like PS2 quality or £40 for the same game on the Xbox 360 / PS3 with this gen quality and extra features and even downloadable content and or online gaming?

Christ, is this argument still happening? Get over it guys!

Whatever you think of Nintendo, or the Wii, it really doesn't matter.

I always think of Nintendo as being a bit like a pop group like Girls Aloud, sure they can be fun to listen to, and they're bound to hog the charts with each new song, but ultimately I'm more fond of indie groups who are often niche and can fail to make the charts. It doesn't mean that Girls Aloud should stop what they're doing, just that I appreciate something other.

Or put it another way, the Nintendo Wii is a bit like a Ford Focus. Everyone has one, they are good value, they do the job, but really I'd want an Aston Martin DB9 if I could afford one. That doesn't mean that Ford Focus should be scrapped just because it is considered inferior to the DB9...

So, you don't like the Wii? It doesn't have pretty graphics? It doesn't have the games? SO WHAT! Go play the 360 and PS3 then and have fun. In the meantime, Nintendo will quite happily raise a new generation of gamers who in turn can provide profits to the gaming industry in the future.

And honestly, I disagree about the graphics and available games too. I like the graphics on the Wii, I loved the look of Mario Galaxy, loved Paper Mario even more, I think that Wii Sports looks perfect for what it is, as does Wario Ware, and many more are perfectly functional for the game style. I acknowledge that they aren't up to PS3 standards but in most cases they can't be considered terrible.

And there are plenty of games, providing you're willing to set your expectations aside. I'm not going to start listing all of them but I would like to point out that the Wii also has the Virtual Console which has the excellent Sin and Punishment (N64) and Super Mario RPG (SNES) - both great games that I hadn't played before and both as good as any full price new title!
Hoping stupidity will be cured soon

Ive played all those games before VC is good for reliving 10 mins but it doesnt fill the gap, agreed Super Paper Mario is good and there are good games, but the point i was making was, that nintendo is so full of them selfs now with hit after hit (based on casual gaming) that ME/I have been forgotten, next gen they will be crawling back to the core gaming, why ignore us now??
