First of all I want to question Nintendo's choice of Wii as the name of their console. They made it clear that it of course means everyone. Everyone sitting down or up and playing and having fun. Joy!! But when you really think of it, Wii represents mostly the casuals and the core gamers Nintendo has been able to gather. Besides Metroid what other game has Nintendo its self created for the hardcore gamers? It has failed to even create new characters, it just keeps refreshing old ones which is fine since I love them but I do want something new. Now don't say "but the hardcores don't matter, Nintendo doesn't need them" that statement is true to some extent. If Nintendo wants to remain on top it needs to demolish the edge Microsoft and Sony have against them. Nintendo would need to "steal" those gamers as well. Just imagine how powerful it could be when all the three types of gamers are in their hands. Yes the hardcore gamers are important just look at the sales of games like Halo, Grand Theft Auto, etc. Nintendo needs to stop with leaving some technology behind in their hardware. Remember when Nintendo first lost? Why was that? Oh yeah it was because it failed to have CDs and DVD format discs. Why was the Gamecube so disappointing? Oh yeah it failed to have the type of size discs the others offered. Now with the Wii, its a different story. Their winning edge is their ability to capture a lost audience who never would have thought of playing video games. But as a long fan I felt betrayed to some extent. I love their games but knowing that the Wii didnt offer HD or couldnt play DVDs so my family and I could watch felt bad. I know graphics dont matter but it wouldnt have hurt Nintendo to release one that was capable of displaying it. I say this mostly because of how Super Mario Galaxy looked when we got our 50 inch HD tv for Christmas. In my standard tv it looked AWESOME but when I first saw it on the HD tv I saw blurriness and the color was fainting. Really I felt sad, I thought due to my lack of knowledge of that time that it was going to be mind blowing, so darn beautiful but that didnt happen. I also have many people that I know who havent bought a Wii due to the fact of the reason of how ugly it looks in those big tvs and I cant blame them. My bro in law own all three and he said just imagine all those Nintendo franchises and how beautiful they would look in 1080p HD tv. I have a feeling for the next generation, Nintendo is only going to offer 720p. :( I love you Nintendo but please listen to your fans. You even deleted those forums on your website. I love both you and Sony but Sony wins in terms of listening to fans and giving the best entertainment thus far. The Wii is fun but if you could only listen. |
Had nintendo of listened to the fans we wouldn't have Mario Galaxy (but a more direct Mario 64 sequel), the Wii, Moton control, or be in first place.....
Plus when Nintendo gave the ball to the fans for Zelda TP the fans ripped it a new *******:(
Look I want a new starfox on wii but I LIVE in my dreams and I PLAY in nintendos dreams.....
Gaming make me feel GOOD!
