Forums - Gaming Discussion - Wii OR HD CONSOLES : which do you find better games on?

The Wii.

Sure, graphics make the game look better, but does it change the gameplay? No.

Graphics don't make a game fun.
The gameplay makes the game fun.
You don't need good graphics to have good gameplay.

Gaming on: PS4, PC, 3DS. Got a Switch! Mainly to play Smash

HD, far more quality titles to choose from, more diversity and the franchises I do love from Nintendo have really dropped the ball this generation while Sony and Microsoft have pushed their franchises further.



Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.

Oh I'm not going to even choose. I have found many titles on both Wii and 360 this generation that I absolutely adore. Or if you don't believe me, just go look at my game collection which should be up to date haha. And for me it obviously has nothing to do with graphics, simply because I only got an HDTV November of last year. And I must say, it didn't change the experience at all from playing the games on a normal SDTV. Although it was crisper. So I can't even choose because I wouldn't really be saying something I think is true.

However, there are a few things I can say definitely about this generation imo. First and foremost, of the Wii and 360, the Wii has a hell of a lot more diverse and unique games. A lot of the "quality" and purchased 360 games I own can really fit into a few categories with most being considered action titles. Although the cinematic action genre really has taken over the mainstream this gen and become the big budget games that usually "reviewers and gamers enjoy" it really has left a lot of the diversity to the download section. I really don't download too many titles (only one on 360 which was Castle Crashers which I thought was atrociously boring). But on Wii I have bought and enjoyed many of its premiered titles that have ranged from gory beatem-ups to point and click adventures. And I've really enjoyed being able to have that "freshness" from a lot of those titles as I play into that diversity. I'm not going to say diversity doesn't exist on the 360, but from what I've bought I've felt like it has given me more diverse and fresh experiences.

Now what I thought would have been a better question, is what developer/publisher have found the better games on. And like so many generations before it, that has easily been supplied by none other than Nintendo themselves. Although some discredit them a little bit this generation, to me their quality and high standards of production has shown this generation again and have delivered some of the, if not the best, experiences out of all the other developers I've bought games from. So if that would have been the question, then Nintendo would have been my answer. But for the sake of the thread... both, or in my case Wii and 360 because I don't often play my PS3.



wii nothing can stop the unstopable force that is nintendo!!



I am Kong.

Strong and passionate, I tend to be misunderstood, sometimes even feared. I don't want to fight, I don't want to cause trouble, all I ask is a little love, and a little peace. If I don't get what I want, I get angry, and throw barrels and flaming oil at whatever's stopping me. What Video Game Character Are You?

hahaha you've got some funny replies in this thread TC

 

my choice is the HD systems not because of graphics or HD itself

Really?You don't think nintendo hasn't pushed there franchises at all?And I think the wii is the only console this generation that actually has its own identity the 360 and ps3 are too similar why they heck do you think they call them the HD Twins?

HD systems... my wife hates video games and she HD systems for this question...



Haven't read all of the posts, but so far I have enjoyed my 360 far more than my wii. I pretty much only play my wii when i have people over. Had the wii come with motion plus out of the box it would probably be my top pick right now. But I guess the kind of games I enjoy aren't really on the wii either, and the ones that are I usually do like (MoH, Conduit, Mario Cart)



HD consoles in less than a heartbeat.
