Wow. I'm a bit surprised to see the reactions here.

Yes, we at the Nintendo team think Nintendo has screwed up this generation, an yes all you Nintendo fanboys seem to be blinded somehow.

You just can't ignore the Wii's lack of horsepower, lack of quality games and lack of achievements. The Wii is basically a GameCube with a flawed controller, and we from IGN are attempting a wake-up call for Nintendo. Things need to change, otherwise Nintendo might as well drop out of the gaming business and start creating toys for kids.

p.s. I'm not fat, just a tad big boned

I'm a Nintendo fanboy and I've always been but I'm not a blind idiot and I admitted a long time ago that the Wii, by far is the worst console this gen, lacking in horse power and extremely far back in great games.

I'm not much of a game anymore but WOW, to say the Wiimote is a flawed controller is downright stupid. So you're telling me X-Box controller which is a more than decent controller but can't use motion controls > a wiimote which can handle both regular games and motion control, and can be switched out for a different type of controller in multiple games? That doesn't even begin to make sense. Wii can handle both, X-Box can only handle one.

 

And the thing about achievements is probaly the dumbest thing I've ever heard. I guess gaming before this gen never really mattered in the first place. If you honestly feel good for getting achievements vs. playing the game, then that's just sad. You might as well not even play the game or care about what you're playing if you just want achievements.
