You must be that breed of whiny internet nerd that thinks that he's somehow above the others. Cool.

And Nintendo has always been about making their games as accessible as possible for as many people as possible. While it is an RPG, I've seen many children pick up and enjoy Paper Mario. So far, we haven't seen anything that indicates that Wii Music will be anywhere near its competitors in the genre (at least, not the last time I checked). And it doesn't look like Wii Music could be very enjoyable to anyone past the age of 12. I guess it came to a point where Nintendo making money was more important than Nintendo making good games.

 

 


Pot, kettle, black.

And Wii Music doesn't have any competitors in its genre. It is, for all intents and purposes, the representative of an all-new genre - not a "rhythm game," but instead a music-making game. The only thing I can think of that's been similar thus far is the highly underrated Electroplankton for DS. It may not be perfect, but at least it's something new, and even if it sucks, it may at least lead to something better in the same emerging genre.

Fair enough. I considered it to be a rhythm game since you can also play the music, but usually games that create new genres are outstanding enough to do so. Wii Music may only reach that through sales impact.

I haven't really heard enough about the game to say it will be completely awful, but I believe in freedom of opinion.
