Okay, now I know fanboys aren't too bright in general, so I'm going to count these for you: 21 Hardcore Wii games out or in development by Nintendo. 8 Casual Wii games out or in development by Nintendo. Some of those are arguably both markets (Mario & Sonic, Animal Crossing, Super Swing Golf)... so yeah. You all think you can stop with this Wii doesn't care about hardcore gamers bullshit now? I'd really appreciate it.

Ok, first naznatips don't be so hard on yourself, you might be more smart than people give you credit for.

Now as for those games, how many of those were announced in the last year? How many of them are *new* games that started development in the last year? You know since Nintendo announced their shift in focus to casual gamers. As for the games you mentioned it's rumored that Project H.A.M.M.E.R. is cancelled and that the team behind it is now working on casual games, of course it's just a rumor but if it turns out to be true what does that tell you? I guess the only thing I can say is wait until E3 to see what new stuff is announced...


They were all anounced at last year's E3. Now let's think here for a minute. I'll slow it down for you and take it step by step so that you can understand.

Fanboy (read: you) says: Nintendo isn't making any games for the hardcore gamer.

I say: Wait till E3 before making such a claim.

Fanboy says: But they aren't making anything RIGHT NOW.

I list 21 games they are making right now.

Fanboy says: But they weren't anounced this year.

I say: That's why you wait till E3, you know, when they anounced the LAST 20 games.

You see you are bitching about what it turns out is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. You are just a hopeless offensive fanboy who is here for the sake of complaining about a system that you don't own and you don't like rather than supporting your own system or playing your own games. YOU ARE A TROLL. You didn't used to be, but you are a pathetic whiner who spends all his time attacking the Wii and PS3. I think it's a pathetic way to live, but if that's how you chose to act, then I hope you are happy with yourself.


Naz (and Legend) I'd personally appreciate it if you both stopped attacking each other. Naz, Don't call Legend a fanboy -- and dumb -- and he won't call you a fanboy -- and dumb. I would be happier if you didn't insult each other, as I appreciate both of your posts.

Naz, has Nintendo announced ANY games in the last 12 months? I can't think of any.

Or put differently: Legend, I agree that Nintendo hasn't announced any new hardcore games in the last 12 months for the Wii. But they also haven't announced any casual ones, either, so I really don't think that's a fair attack.

 


Don't worry I'm done replying to him in this thread because I'm tired of the personal attacks I'm receiving.

He may be a bit late to the table.

Make more Metroid less mario party.

Nooooooooooooooooo... It seems like Woof is late to the discussion.

You're attacking him too, though, Legend. If he had simply called you a dumb troll, I woudl absolutely be on your side, but you replied in kind, and now you're to blame as well.

I've seen you do this before, Legend. People bait you all the time, I know this -- you're a 360 fan swarmed by Wii/PS3 fans. Don't give in. We all are supposed to learn this lesson in gradeschool, but almost none of us do (including me).

If someone is mean to you, you aren't supposed to be mean back. You ignore them. Be the better man. Again, I know it's hard, because you're surrounded -- but as one of the sole representatives of the 360 community here, I feel it's especially important that you do so. Gballzack can be a troll because there are many reasonable Wii-fans here; if you behave this way, there's not much left for the 360 besides fanatic trolling, and there are a lot of reasonable reasons to prefer a 360 to either of the other two consoles.

I apologize Legend, I shouldn't have insulted you. I get tired of hearing the same attacks on game systems. I wish that half the topics weren't filled with some kind of "XXXX" system sucks because of "XXXX" and I kinda blew up and took it out on you, when you aren't even bad about it. You have every right to your opinion and I'm sorry I insulted you.

err Bodhesatva, can you drop the cat picture please?

Not overreacting or anything but if someone post a pic of a dog with big lips and call it african cat, i'm sure most decent american people will not take it kindly. I dont see the same happens for offensive caricatures of asians. frankly i'm quite tired of this double standard in the society.

Hello, I'm new to these forums (even though I've been reading them for months so I know everyone...I think) and I hope we can all get along well.

 Now to answer the quoted message...why take it? It's really funny...heh heh.

And on topic, I agree with naznatips. We should all wait for E3.
