Dodece said: Are we looking at a catch 22. Square is damned either way they go. They turn their games into casual tripe, and they will get lambasted by fans for feeding them garbage. They stick to their guns and support traditional high quality gaming with depth, and they are labeled anti Nintendo. They are merely being attacked for being Square no matter where they go it must be wrong right.
I think their is an inferiority complex driven lust at play in many posters. They desperately want the high end experience on the Wii. On the other hand they themselves realize that only casual gaming with have stratospheric success on the console. The developers are not being stupid. They are being realistic.
Your simply not going to be finding certain gaming experiences on the Wii. That is something you have to come to terms with. These contradictory concepts are moronic. You cannot scream at a developer that excels at core and hardcore games to make their future games casual. Then expect to get the old school experience you seem to be wanting. Thats not going to happen they are mutually exclusive.
I think some posters need to sit long and hard, and think about what they are actually looking for in a console. No your not going to get Final Fantasy XIII on the Wii. Your not going to get Halo 3 either. Owning and playing a Wii exclusively comes with a price tag in that your not going to find real high end gaming there. A fatal flaw as it were like Microsoft's brand name, or the price tag on the PS3. You can't have your cake and eat it to. |
Dodece, I commend you for sticking to your guns... Wait, actually I don't. You have been around this forum long enough to learn that an argument like that just isn't worth writing anymore. There was a time when it could have made sense (as in "mmmm that's possible"), but now, the only reaction it warrants is "eh, these false FUDish claims again?".
There are more than enough good "hardcore" Wii games to prove that any good game will sell on the Wii (provided it has decent marketing, or in some cases even without it). Even Capcom has already shifted Monster Hunter 3 from being a PS3 exclusive to being a Wii exclusive, it's just that some developers (and posters like you) didn't get the memo; .
