I haven't given up on Nintendo. I am on a hiatus from their products, because they don't catch my attention. I know they catch my mothers attention or my little cousins, but not mine. I guess I grew up...but I doubt they could arrange to have more games made for people like myself. Who knows? Only time will tell.

Name one game before Gears of War that had that kind of cover system along with blind fire

You may give up on Nintendo but Nintendo will never give up on you.

Time Crisis, and blind fire is just randomly shooting, like I said, all meshed together.

PS1 :)

Not sure if I'll ever give them a chance, but the NES and SNES was fun, it's just everything went down hill from there, they haven't released anything that appealed to me yet.

WOW Gilgamesh,even Smash Bros,Zelda & Metroid?I guess there's no hope for you ever liking anything they do then.....

I never gave up on them cuz I never joined them...started out a sega boy and then shifted into a playstation man.

N64 that's when, new kid PS gave me non kiddy games and finally a racer worthy of me buying a console for.

Never. The only non-Nintendo consoles I've owned were my PS2, which was used for PSX Final Fantasy games, and my PSP, which was a waste of money.

NES - Really cool, their best system until the Wii.

SNES - Had some really good RPGs, but ultimately Sega was better until Donkey Kong Country came out.

N64 - The system had like 70 games released for it total. PSX had thousands. OF COURSE PSX was the better choice.

Gamecube: There were more games, but they were all crap. Skies of Arcadia Legends and
Baten Kaitos were the only ones I can think of that were good; Metroid Prime had high ratings, but please, what is the point of a Metroid Game where you can't even see what Samus is doing?

Wii: Nintendo finally figured out what works, and luckily for them Sony and Microsoft bet wrong. Too bad a lot of developers did too; but I have felt Wii has been a vastly superior console than the previous two, and better than the SNES, and perhaps the NES. Everyone knew the Wii was going to be the system to get when DS proved the points Nintendo was pushing with the Wii.
