Do you consider the Wii part of this generation?

[Arius Dion]

I doubt any mature persons' feelings are hurt, just because you voice your opinion.

I do however disagree with your opinion on the Wii, as well as your assesment of why it "doesn't deserve" to be #1.

I am a little perterbed as to why these talking points continue to resonate. I wonder what will happen to threads such as these when the Wii continues to move upstream (Read Malstrom) and begins offering games that interest top tier users. It will be alot harder to give relevance to these buzz words and catch phrases.

I do remember a time when DS was similarly targeted, and stigmatized as a casual mini game fest. It is now THE handheld of the generation with one of the most diverse gaming libraries of all time..What I'm getting at is I have all the belief in the world that the Wii will suffer the same fate.

I also remember a time when the NES was stigmatized in the same way Wii is now..NES is shown as the console that saved this industry and is responsible for gaming as we know it today. Perhaps Wii will be responsible for how we know gaming tomorrow.
