To me the wii is gimmicky garbage.  I was dying to own the supernes, the n64 and the gamecube.  But i could not care less about the wii, the wii mote pisses me off.  If i had a choice of using a traditional game controller maybe i would would feel differently on that score but the system lags behind every previous console nintendo has put out in terms of games, except maybe for Mario galaxy.  The only game the system is worth owning for and easily beaten rather quickly.  Twilight princess is also easy.  As a hardcore zelda and mario and metroid fan those games give me zero challenge.

Twilight Princess as i have said in the past was developed for the gamecube and delayed so many times it was released on both systems gamecube and wii.  Therefore since from the beginning it was not intended for the wii i don't consider it a real newly developed zelda game for the wii that is still to come, if it even does before the next console.  The wii is basically the same as the gamecube with a gimicky thing with motion sensor technology you swing around, that looks like a tv remote.

They also fail by having standard dvd technology that spins backwards like the gamecube.  But the 360 is also left behind because they did not go the Blu Ray route.  the PS3 is built like a tank and is future proof.  If it only had the game library that the 360 has it would fucking own all.

Nintendo will never put out any more epic games like , Donkey Kong Country, Conker's bad fur day or Goldenyeye, or perfect dark.  Games on Both the supernes and the nintendo 64.  Because they sold off rare to microsoft.

They sold Conkers, perfect dark.  Of course they kept the donkey kong series but did not make any more games except the horrible 64 incarnation.  and that bongos game on the gamecube.  And of course the 007 license went to however made those games on the playstation and the ports that were made for the other systems.  I think it was sony.  Now the license went to Activision.

A remake of Goldeneye 64 would have been awesome on a next gen system like the xbox 360 or the ps3. 

They could have just released the original low res 480i version in 480p for the virtual console on the wii, or they could have retooled it for the wii mote to be bond's gun,lol.

I was all for a cool star wars lightsaber game on the wii, for the chance to actually use the damn thing after playing twilight princess and mario and wii sports into the ground.  Do we get a good star wars game set in the eu or even the original trilogy fillms, no of course not.  The game they promised us for years turns out to be set in the horrible prequel universe continuity with the bad clone wars cartoon and cheap crap animation like the 2008 film.

too bad the wii's version of force unleashed was a joke.  Had the system the processing power of the 360 or the PS3 along with the wiimote that could have been the lightsaber game.

Lucasfilm games aka Lucasrts is a joke now anyway they won't do a real Kotor 3 with Bioware, that would have the same customization ability and depth as mass effect.  Of course not because they will make a shit mmo with a montly subscription and set hundreds of years later.  Forget what happened to the hidden sith empire threat, or what happened to Revan in the unknown regions nobody really cared to find out the story after playing through the first 2 games. WTF?  it would be Like if Lucas made star wars and empire strikes back and just jumped 200 hundred years later for the third film without telling us what was Han Solo's fate.
