This is why I only go to IGN for reviews, nothing else

their review staff is excellent, I trust them there

but everything else they do is just........bad

the guy who wrote this does review games =p....i think hes alright, i mean this article really isnt bad, its not perfect, but i wouldnt say its bad

errr... Are you talking about Daemon Hatfield from IGN? He has been a certified anti-Wii person for a long, long time (maybe always?). I have stopped reading anything he had to say already a year ago...

everyone who isnt on the nintendo team is anti wii, i listen to all the podcasts and they always have something to say about how motion controls are not good, and that the wii is weak, and how the wii is sad for not having dvd capabilities, its not him only, but i dont blame them honeslty, i feel the same way about the wii, the system is not for me and apperently for many of the ign reviewers, whether he hates the wii or not though, he makes points that galaxy and other games on the wii are good, hes doesnt bring up the system or his hate towards it, but more the game...i find his article to be good overall

Since you don't like the Wii (something you are fully entitled to ) of course you find his article to be good... On a side note, Daemon Hatfield actually WAS on the Nintendo team, it was sometime during that time that I stopped reading him.

Also, personally I think that criticism of any Wii game should be written by someone who generally likes the Wii, this way when reading the criticism I can know that the criticism is not because of disliking the Wii but because of actual problems with the game itself. But that's just my opinion/wish.

sound fair enough, but the reviewer tried to get the point across also, that NSMB was playing it safe
