There are virtually no hardcore gamers like you that own a Wii. Zero. Real hardcore gamers like you play 360 or PS3, preferably both at the same time. Sure Wii sells well, but more like a fad for non gamers, like the HoolahHoop in the 20's. Hardcore gaming still has only one option: HD. Real hardcore gamers like you also can't stand to play the good old games from the past anymore. Those are not HD. Damn, some of them even have sprites. That's not hardcore at all. Mega Man 9, don't make me laugh. I mean Chrono Trigger: that's sooo 1990's. No the Wii has nothing to offer but ports like RE4 and Okami. And we all know those are shitty games. I mean they were nice a couple of years ago, but now stories have become so much better and gameplay so much more immersive. They try to hide their age by being widescreen and progressive scan, but we all know the truth... |
BengaBenga speaks the truth here people. Listen to this man-beast.
As a hardcore gamer, I've come to the realization that my purchasing of the Wii was a terrible mistake. Like many of you, I was seduced by the promises of hardcore games on the console, but it was all a lie. After 2 years of waiting, I still have yet to see a game on Wii that isn't a waggle fest of kiddy shenanigans. My Wii is my best vaccuum cleaner at this point in time, as it collects dust like a champ. Which led me to this realization:
The Wii sells so well to the Non-gamer crowd not for its "Casual appeal" (A damage control excuse made up by Nintendo fanboys to hide the truth) but because it is an excellent dust collector. Soccer moms, grandmas, parent, little girls... they all want tidy rooms and houses, and what better way can someone collect all of that dust than by using a Wii? It is the perfect example of why Wii is selling so well, and why you're seeing companies such as Oreck Vaccuums' marketshare dwindle. You've heard Nintendo themselves that Wii does not compete with the true console contenders of this generation. It's true, as Wii competes with the vaccuum corporations of the world.
