I always see the debate online by Microsoft and Sony fanboys that Nintendo Wii is shovelware.
But despite the few games that are a joke and made with very little effort and thinking to be for the wimote, crearly a lot of people own wii's and enjoy them a great deal.
Not enough people have HDTV's and blu ray is still a niche format to make the fact that the system is last generation and not current gen or next gen a big deal. It is a lot like the gamecube except with a fun remote device that is mostly in my opinion the entire focus of the system and not the games.
It should be not about the controller used but about the games. Remember some of those awesome games they made back in the super nintendo era?
I think it is about time they are working on their first truly wii Zelda game. And the next mario game should be done whenever they feel like it.
Galaxy was a blast but new super mario bros as a port would be awesome i must admit for the old school gamer fans. I enjoyed those old school elements in the paper mario games as well as galaxy.
To those who say the wii is shoveware they forgot that until fairly recently the ps3 was only good for playing blu ray movies and had almost zero games or at least good games.
Me i'm looking forward to Mass Effect 2. Final Fantasy XIII.
I would have liked a kotor III, desptite Biowares old republic cinemas looking amazing i hate mmo's and prefer stand alone single player rpgs with a story.
I think all three systems have games worth owning. Its a matter of choice which to own, and a matter of monetary expense. I don't own anything myself beyond a ps1 and original xbox. I had a supernes and gameboy, but no longer do. Gamecube. wii and 360 all belonged to my bro and i never saw a reason to buy them when i could use his. We owned a ps2 at one point. The one system i have not played at all is the PS3 way too expensive and i don't have an HDTV. No one in my family does.
If i had one i would definetely have Metal Gear IV though that game is frickin amazing the cinema scenes almost look like live action.
Oh yeah and i would probably play god of war III when it comes out, if i had a PS3,lol.
