Do you still seeing the Wii as the "kiddy" console?

[68soul]

I'm now 40, and yes, the Wii is the only home console choice i've got for my kids... but my kids won't ever play Mad World, No More Heroes... damn, even Zelda and Okami are still on the hard side for 8-10 years old kids...

The problem with the Wii isn't the hardware, but the software choice the industry has proposed us so far...

I may buy games for my whole family, but i also like games for my own pleasure... but not the supposed "mature" FPS found on PS360... i like games with great gameplay, great story, and great ART STYLE... i like games with a little something special, like Muramasa, Fragile, etc... Ico or Shadow of the Colossus, too...

And i really don't see why such games HAVE to be done on PS360, where they need to sell at least 500k-1m (if not more), just to break even... PS360 are maybe the best for "hyper-realistic blockbusters", but do ALL the games out there have to be "hyper-realistic" and "blockbusters"?

I don't think Pixar could afford to do movies for a 20-30 million userbase, so why are games suddenly supposed to have the same kind of budget, with a very risky profit margin to be found?

In short, i think Wii is a console for everyone, and that it's the perfect ground for new ideas, new styles, etc... games like Boom Blox, No More Heroes, De Blob didn't fail, as we'll soon see the sequels... we just need more and more games like these, more action/adventures, more RPGs, more platformers, more racers, more FPS/shooters, so everyone may find his own...

But it's all about software and business choices, the hardware has not "kiddy" written on it, it has "universal" written on it... now, if 3rd parties weren't blind...
