I am sorry, but I agree with this article 100%. This is not targetted at you teenagers that have no real experience with Nintendo or games in general. This is aimed at the gamers like me that are late 20s, early 30s and have owned EVERY Nintendo system ever released. I just got done trading in my Wii with a huge game and accessory collection to purchase the PS3 MGS4 bundle. I have used my PS3 more in a month than I did my Wii in a year. I had every major game on the Wii and was bored with all of them after 1-2 hours.
There are exactly 0 real hardcore games on the Wii. SMG, Zelda, Metroid, etc are all too easy and casual friendly now to be considered hardcore. I have owned every system in this generation and actually almost every system ever released in the U.S.. The only systems I have not owned are Neo Geo and the 3D0 due to the outrageous price on them. I am now done with Nintendo for good. I have been a Nintendo fan and supporter for their entire history, but they have now gone too far with this casual crap. Wii Music is a complete joke and I will have no part of their crap anymore. I will get everything I want and more from having both the 360 and PS3. The Wii is a child's and non-gamers toy and those so-called core games you people are talking about are NOT core games at all. The problem is there are too many teenagers that wouldn't know a core game if it bit them on the ass that are still praising Nintendo on these forums.
The real gamers are playing the PS3 and 360... |
I guess I'm not a real gamer than ...
I own both a Wii and an XBox 360, and between the two I use the Wii far more as a gaming device and (of the games I have played) I would say the Wii has a far more original and enjoyable game line-up. Older gamers I know (in their late 20s and 30s) seem to favour the Wii because they have less time to devote to games, and (in many cases) find more enjoyment playing a game with their young children than with a bunch of strangers online.
The fact of the matter is your experience is not representative of people in general.

Actually, I know many gamers just like me and none of them own a Wii. Most of the people I know think that owning a Wii is for kids and girlfriends.
