The Ghost of RubangB said: To me an arcade game is something that requires no tutorial level, no instruction manual, no prior knowledge, and no introductory cinematic sequence. You turn it on and already know how to play. Wii Sports has 2 things in common with Pac-Man (or Pong for that matter): ZERO BUTTONS, and one of the most famous games ever created. You might even say the Pac-Man Fever of yesteryear has come back as Wii Sports Fever, but sadly nobody's written a song about it yet. |
Its not Malstrom 's definition of a "arcade game" if so, he didnt complain about lack of games asides WSR, Wii Fit and Wii play wasnt it? And he didnt mentioned facebook games too. Games that defies the definition of a arcade game and casuals flocking to it
end of core gaming days prediction:
E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced
E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.
E3 2010- Tape runs out
