Why would we celebrate? Snes is 10X the console Wii has been up to this point...

In what sense?

 

 

Snes was on top of the gaming world from 1994 to 1996 with some of the best software ever released. Any type of game you liked...Snes had 10 games worth playing for that genre. There are atleast 30 classic games I can name off the top of my head for the Snes.

Wii thus far will be remembered for

Mario Galaxy

Zelda TP

Metroid Prime 3

Smash brothers Brawl

Mario Kart Wii

Wii Fit

Wii sports

Anyting else Im missing? 

You know you are in trouble when 3 of the 8 AAA games for the system are ports of last gen games. (zelda, RE4, Okami)

 

While I do agree that the SNES is the best system I have ever played (and at the same time I will admit that my view may be skewed by nostalgia) I love the Wii even more because I can download great SNES games for it.

Let me put it this way, I will remember my Wii the most for:

Super Smash Bros

Twilight Princess

Wii Fit

Wii Sports/Wii Play

Mario Kart Wii

Mario Kart 64

Super Mario World

LOZ

LOZ LttP

Mega Man 9

Defend Your Castle

and the list goes on.

 

The Wii is better than the SNES simply because no matter great the SNES was (and it was VERY awesome) all that is encapsulated into the Wii and once I can download the rest of the gems I want to for the Wii (Chrono Trigger and Earthbound come to mind) it will be complete. I will get an SNES pad configured to plug into my Wii remote and spend the next 10 years playing my Wii like I have been playing my SNES since 1995.
