Wii owners aren't soulless, they just have bad taste! Seriously, Wii is a casual party machine. I know two hardcore gamers who own it, and both own...you guessed it...Mario Party 8. Why haven't they purchased Metroid Prime 3 or Super Mario Galaxy? Because they also have 360s (and a PS3 in one case) so all of their 1-player gaming budget goes to those. Then you've got the moms and the old folks' homes and the hospitals buying these things...you know it ain't for Metroid. This is what happens when you're #1. The fact is, hardcore gamers are a minority, and to the non-hardcore gamer Mario Party is as good as Mario Kart is as good as Mario Tennis is as good as Galaxy. (In fact, the rest are probably better than Galaxy since they're fun at parties). |
