When things are slow I look in the forums I don't normally frequent to find threads I'm interested in. What I find interesting these days is that I'm completely apathetic towards the Wii. Normally that would mean I wouldn't even bother posting something like this but I thought it was interesting especially in light of some of the Wii threads I've noticed recently.
Some of these threads are bashing videogame sites or videogame journalists but to be honest I think the reason many are saying what they are about the Wii is because they too are currently feeling apathy towards it. The biggest new games for the system in the past few months have been Animal Crossing which apparently is just a rehash and Wii Music which while having its defenders seems to really live up to its title of being a non-game because who really is playing it.
This of course will change in the future but for those bashing videogame journalists, maybe that's the reason they are basically saying what they are about the system. After you talk about sales, and really how long does it take to say it's selling amazingly well, what else is there really to talk about? Games that are coming out next year? The Dragon Quest X announcement really shouldn't have surprised anyone and the game won't be seen for at least another year or two. Other than that are the same handful of promising games that we've already heard about months ago.
Anyways that's all I have to say and this isn't a knock against Wii owners or anything, I hope you're enjoying your system. I just hope it explains to some who think what's being said is out of fear or anger or whatever emotion you can think of, it's likely just indifference.

To me it is the entire industry as a whole. There have been few Xbox 360 games that interest me, and even fewer PS3 games. There have been some fun Wii games this year, but they are flash in the pan. Play for 10 minutes, then you are done for the day.

It seems you're losing your interest in gaming. Perhaps it's time to search for a new hobby.

We gamers need to live a more balance life. Your whole life can't be just about video games. We need to disconnect from the electronic world and enjoy real life. like my dad always says what does the video game do for you. Beating a game or gaining a new level on WoW isn't an accomplishment in real life. Gaming is fun but it shouldn't be your life.

Well said. I also typed my message after paying off a mortgate in ACCF, and looked a mountain of new debt as I got my second floor. I wish I could have brought over my house and all my stuff from the DS version. Bringing over the catalog was cool, but havin to redo everything all over again gets a little monotonous.
