Not all Sony fans think like this. Also, xbox fans are just as likely to say the Wii is for kids/casuals and is not a direct competitor. Remember the "graduate from the Wii" remark.

Yes I edited it from some to allot. lol we should really be able to edit the thread title though :P Yes I remember that though I have Sony fans in the thread title otherwise I would edit the OP.

The wii should not be considered a competitor simply because of the huge disparity between the quality of their software libraries. Never in gaming can I remember a system with such sales dominance yet such a piss poor library of games as the wii. The difference in quality between both hd consoles and the wii simply make them incomparable. Yes, wii crushes them in sales but that's about it

 

I don't really want to give you a warning this time, but lets clarify something: opinion does not equal fact.

It's perfectly cool to not like the Wii's library and it's cool to express that opinion, just please don't state it as fact when talking about the whole library.

LBP is hardly a kiddie game. It is too demanding for small kids. Some levels would make kids cry in how difficult they are.

 

Did you ever play any outrageously hard games from NES era?  How about TMNT water level on NES which most kids could barely complete and that was a game marketed towards kids.

Having “most of them” in the thread title was wrong of me to do. I am sorry about that but there are allot of them.

The Wii should not be considered as a competitor to the HD consoles. (Now the Sony fans are the most visible so I will not say anything about 360 fans). This is ok for them to say because they are last but if they where on top I bet my life they would go on and on, on how the Wii is being crushed! They automatically become in the same market then!

Anything on Nintendo is for kids and therefore it is a kid’s console but when games like LBP are announced they go nuts over it. Huh?! Why is that I mean it looks kiddie and can be played by kids but all of a sudden it is ok because it is on a Sony console?

They think every games is going to save the PS3 when it is released and when it doesn’t they say the next one will do the job and so on. The Wii is a toy but the PS3 is not.

Claiming that the PS3 will win this gen and next because of the 10 year life span it has. It is actually sad to see this but they are so desperate to make the PS3 seem like the winner! When the Nintendo fans defend the Wii and its games they say that things can never be discussed properly!

No really you guys should accept that every now and then there is a now leader in the market. This is Nintendo’s second time but it is not like Sony hasn’t been on top before.

@ Torillian, quote:
"but when it comes to reviewing they don't want any kind of graphical comparisons."
Well, th ething anout metacritics & the like isthat it gather scores from whatever site & if thereis 1 thing that is undeniable is that most of reviewers aren't journalists, they are just game fans & fanboys, most of them hate the Wii with passion, they view themselves as hardcorz because they play imature violent games. Just look around, 1up, Eurogamer, Gamedaily, Gamespot etc. rarely speak on very gratifying terms of Nintendo, they feel threatened by it!
With that bias, how can a review be objective, not to mention the gifts/goodies, trips they recieve by both MS & Sony, while Nintendo never went that route.
Example: Import reviews of Disaster were better than Wii Music, owning the games in question, I can tell you that Disaster while having good ideas is pure crap, in the 45% zone, in the other hand Wii Music despite a questionable track list deserves to be in the 90% zone, most sites review it from a Guitar Hero/RockBand point of view wich is unfair, refusing to see the game for what it is. The same if car magazines reviewed fishing poles from a car point of view...
Only a certain type of games (preferently for HD consoles) can fare good scores on most gaming sites... To show you I'm not a fanboy, I'll tell you that despite being a huge MarioKart fan, MarioKart Wii was overrated & PES08 was underrated, PES has been a Playstation matter for the most, fans of the game should really check it out, the Wii version is like 10 times better than any other version!!
Peace out gamers, keep an open mind & have a great fun 2009 year of gaming!!!

You're asuming that kids these days are as good as the ones during the NES time, and are used to hard games? They're not.

Same thing with most Nintendo games like Mario and Pikmin. They can be played by kids but not completed.

for every 1 ps3/wii similarity i reckon i could state 5 differences.

Does the wii being 1st place auto-justify your opinions.
