Certainly there has been more than one great game per year from Nintendo. The problem is that there are only one or two that even the review industry doesn't dare to smear in retaliation for the Wii's de-emphasis on graphics, and since the "hardcore" rely on reviewers to tell them what to buy, those are the only games they see.

Even a casual examination of the full Wii catalog reveals more than enough great games to satisfy pretty much anyone. But the "hardcore" refuse to look, and that is why the review industry can get away with the casual abuses of consumer trust that they've been committing this gen.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
