Montana, thank you for understanding the point. You're dealing with irrational people here. Shit, someone even said they liked Independence Day.

I'll stand by my 8 year old niece's opinion in favor of my own. She loved Rock Band. She played Wii Music for half an hour and called it crap (not her words, that little girl has a mouth on her). After a brief time of Wii Music, she went back to Rock Band and continued to play it for three days until I left (I assume she kept playing it after I left).

Wii Music sucks. It's horrible. I played it for about six hours trying to see if there was a redeeming point in that game. There wasn't.

Myamoto, shark, jumping.

Rocketpig, opinion, repeating.

Cute. Maybe someday you'll get your own schtick and become wildly successful at it and then, you'll finally embrace your life. What we proletarians call that is LOVE.

Personally i think you don't believe your own perspective (deep down) as much as you claim. Your just fighting for the sake of it and forgetting that Miyamoto is trying to do something different. Its fine if you, like alot of gamers, don't see the value in his approach, but it is hypocritical for you to use one game as the litmus test for the shark analogy. WM is a game that has followed SMG after all, the best game of 2008. btw alot of nintendo fans who like WS and WF don't like WM either but its no reason to forget that only 6 months before this he produced what some claim to be his best game in 10 years.

Your welcome to call people who don't share your views irrational, but it is you who is more irrational for not embracing different perspectives on different games. As a moderator you should be able to know when to quit and in addition know when you are derailing a thread with your views on Miyamoto.

Oh and i bet you a million dollars more Independance day fans have shooters in their consoles rather than Wii Music. That says much more about the core market than you would dare admit.

 



“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
