Did it ever occur to you that HD games may be better then their Wii competitors and that is why Wii games don't take GOTY? (Besides, last year, the Wii got nothing worthy of the title). |
A simple as it is to respond to your post. Let me start with this. Will you ever play MW2, Uncharted 2 (blah blee freaking blah) again after MW3, Uncharted 3 come out? The answer to that is NOPE!
This^^^ is why games like Punch Out, Super Mario Brothers, Metroid, Zelda ect are better games. The replay value is unlimited and will never go away. I still like to play NES game from 1985. Will you ever freaking play the original Gran Tourismo again? NOPE! once again. HD Games are in no shape or form better than games like Little King Story or NSMB Wii.
Wow the game looks great! Oh, but it is the same as every other freaking game with a different story line. This is where XBOX360 and PS3 are making mistakes. They need more games like Little Big Planet to compete. Guess what they don't want to, they want to focus on graphics. I don't care how good it looks, if I can't figure out the 70 buttons to push

Wow this one hilarious response by a traumatized Nintendo fanboy. First of all we are talking Game of the Year, not classic games you still play. Second of all don't bring up sequels since every big hit the Wii has had is a REMAKE or SEQUEL to a original franchise. The only thing you have done by posting this comment is cemented my reason of never getting a Wii. Mike Tyson's Punch Out, Mario Bros, Zelda, Contra etc were amazing games back in the day and I do love to play them, and therefore I will never have the urge to play these games on the Wii since they are lesser quality remakes and rehashes. SMBWii? 2D mario with a few new suits and remapped worlds. I'll save my money and play SMB3, the best 2D mario made. I know you don't want to face the facts the Wii is a casual gamer's console with motion controls slapped on to classic franchises. This does not make them better, it just convolutes them. Mario Kart Wii is the worst Mario Kart I've ever played. That said gaming has evolved and the HD consoles have games with great stories, great graphics, and someday may become classics. Last fact I find it much more difficult to play a FPS on the Wii then with a controller so your '70 buttons' comment has no value. The Wii controller with nunchuck is much more cumbersome.

While I agree that his post was pretty damn silly, yours is even more silly.

I've been a gamer since the Atari 2600 days and I think I have a pretty good grasp on what consoles are great and what franchises are great. Nintendo, SNES, and even parts of the Nintendo 64 were great consoles with awesome gaming franchises. New concepts and stories were brought to the table. PS1, PS2 did the same thing. Now that I'm in my 6th generation of gaming I greatly enjoy the 360. I actually believe the 360 quite possibly has the best game library or equal game library out of any console I've played or owned, all the way back to the Atari days. I haven't played the PS3 and I am intrigued by it and might buy one in the future. Sony and Microsoft have been playing a game of one up on each other the past couple generations and it has resulted in great new franchises and games that have pushed the evolution of gaming. I've played the Wii (my gf had one until she sold it for lack of replay value) and it has not grown up. If you believe otherwise thats fine with me but myself and almost every other non Nintendo fanboy realizes the Wii is a casual gamer's machine. Adding motion control does not make this the next evolution of gaming. The games themselves do and Nintendo has not put out games of equal quality as the HD machines.

You have a grasp on what franchises you think are great. The games that you think are evolutionary i might find shallow, or vice versa. Why should consoles "grow up" specifically to match your growth as an individual? This is the peculiar mentality that pervades the industry, and has led to its current state, where they've left behind a large, large number of former players.
