Gaming - Why Wii Hate? - View Post

I don't there is any real logical reason to "hate" the Wii. I think many are just disappointed the games currently comming out aren't really aimed at the traditional gaming market. Nintendo haven't realeased on of their top tier games for a long while and most 3rd-party efforts are pretty lame (except maybe for Sega).

It must also be somewhat disheartening for certain developers to see games they've poured there heart and soul into sell worse then shovelware. However, this is how it is.

I suppose it's like being a film buff (except we're game buffs) and then being asked to compare Shawshank Redemption to XXX. XXX is fun and can be watched and enjoyed by many, but Shawshank is long and brilliant but you have to be in the right frame of mind to watch it. The pleb on the street may prefer XXX but any one who's serious about film will tell you Shawshank is the better film.
