Everyone, Hi.

ZenfoldorVGI, my point was if a Zelda game wasn't going to win me over on the system... nothing was. And yes, maybe I rated the hardware first and foremost but if you don't like the hardware you have little or no chance of liking the games.... at least in the case of Wii where the hardware "is" the gameplay. Same with DS, the Resident Evil 1 remake, and many other games, to me at least just forced stylus gameplay or added it when it wasn't even needed. If it ain't broke don't fix it, Castlevania never needed stylus drawn spells to increase the fun and to me it just detracts from it.

But look, I realize the masses have spoken, they like the Wii and the DS, they sale like insanity. I'm happy for nintendo because they've had a hard run of it. I just can't state enough how I am a traditional gamer and the Wii is the opposite of that, VC aside.

I'm not going to Troll though, I just like discussion. As long as everyone realizes my bias comes for the Wii NOT Nintendo we'll be fine. And I'm not even gonna push it down everyones throat, but I will stand up for the games and systems I like and should someone trash them speak up, that's fine right? That's what everyone here does isn't it?

Don't worry, I respect opinion and take it for what it is. If I do rag on something I will afford the luxery of at least having a REASON for it. I hope that's okay.

BTW, nice icon. Sin City=Best Movie to come out in last five years, easily.

Hehe. I do want you to think about this, however:

 

Several Wii and DS games don't use the motion controls or touchscreen for a main gameplay device.

 

I consider the best games on each system to be:

 

Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney(DS)

Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn(Wii)

 

Both of these games don't require even the slightest use of the hardwares functionality, both are overlooked, and both add a tremendous amount of value to the hardware as a purchase, since they are exclusives.

 

While you may be correct, that twitch based games require you to use motion/touch controls, which you don't like, just remember that not all games, nor will all games for the systems be easily categorized as a "wagglefest," and indeed there are far more hardcore games with traditional controls for both systems than their detractors would like to admit.

 

Thanks for responding with class.
