Forums - Gaming Discussion - To Wii owners: Why haven't you bought an HD console yet?

dnnc on 22 May 2010

because it don't matter, I have a 360 (waiting for Gears 3) and I sold my PS3 (didn't use it and I needed cash), and I'm satisfied with my Wii.... I mean come on, come on! Galaxy 2 is awesome, and I need Metroid like I need Crack



my signature went on strike, it's demanding 3% raise

I have all three but not even PS3 or 360 first,second or third company title comes even close to Nintendo's first.

Who says I didn't?

Maybe a few months back, before I picked up my 360 and PS3 my reasoning would be because of price.



I game.  You game.  We game.

I'm a videogamer, not a fanboy, but have a special place for Nintendo.

I 'm not really interested in the games on those systems. I was interested in Bioshock and Mass Effect but when I saw the main characters firing guns. I lost interest in both titles.

A combination of

Not having enough money to buy all the Wii games I must play, nor a DS and all the incredible games on there, nor enough time to play the games I already own

you shouldn't be so quick to judge something based on a stereotype. Bioshock and Mass Effect 2 are both must have experiences, the same with many titles.

The same can be said about many genres or elements.

I don't not play Nintendo games just because of their style. They are still great games even though while I play them all I hear is the game yelling "look, this is imaginative... the enemies are turtles with wings, and you ride a dino that eats fruit and shoots eggs! Cah-rayyyzzzzzzzzeeeeeee!"

All Nintendo games are like that.

the better question is why does it matter if a Nintendo fan hasn't brought a HD Console yet?

the living room won't fit much bigger than [the 27" CRT] currently there, if the screen goes right up to the edges then a 32" might fit (current TV has speakers either side of the screen)

If I were you I'd measure the space and then take a tape measure to the store.  My house has the same problem and we upgraded from 36" CRT to 40" LCD when the former broke.  But it was the only 40" model in the store that would fit; fortunately it was a good one.

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

It's similar to the same question Nintendo was asking when it was developing the ds and wii.
