No no no no.
this is not about wii music.
there is a difference between toys and video games. thats what he said.
you all seem to believe that they are synoymous, and while i agree that they are closely related, they are not the same.

Please define 'toy' and 'game' without references to specific consoles. I find it hard to believe you're the only one "getting it" when the rest of us do not. And how is it not about Wii music? He said you could call it more a toy than a game, because it lacks goals. So a toy could be anything you play with, without it having any goal or reason, whereas a game has a goal, an end, or competition. Then you claimed Wii is a toy, which means it lacks any games. That's not true, it does have your typical games and then some (these toys). It doesn't make it a toy more than a game console, at least that's how I see it.

I'm really trying to make a sane discussion here, but you seem to be obsessed with convincing people Wii is not a game console, but a toy, unlike the other two. Well, that's the impression I got with your past wii/toy threads.
