the wii disappointed me the moment i realized it couldn't do 1-1 movement. the idea was there but the execution was not.
i basically like 2 nintendo franchises: smash and zelda. ive been too lazy to borrow zelda (as i only like it, not love it) but brawl disappointed the hell out of me. it threw out what made smash special: fast free form fighting (four f's =) with combos. i still play melee because of that disappointment.
nintendo has been a fairly casual developer for a while. they could satisfy mid-core gamers, but not the hardcore who would often have multiple systems anyways so would still love nintendo. this gen they have basically catered to the casual and barely even touched the mid-core. brawl was casuallized and all their other big games were ports or third party games (zelda anyone?).
i honestly believe that if no more heroes was released at a comparable quality on the hd consoles it wouldnt have had so much hype (i havent played it, but im talking about hype). it would have been lost in a sea of games that people wanted more.
