However, my choice in gaming this generaiton is one more so based on integrity rather than popularity, not that such makes me exempt from such scrutiny, my preference for the PS2 last generation was by and large one of necesity and circumstance, not ideology or vision. Even if the Wii is not the god send of gaming so many fanboys want people to think it is, it offers one thing that the 360 and PS3 don't at this point, a garanteed future for gaming... a promise of something more than an ever narrowing demographic and an ever shrinking library of game genres. |
Well said :)
I sure hope that the Nintendo way is the future of gaming. Not that I wish to imply that the more upmarket, or 'hardcore' as people call it, games should dissappear. I just want the new values that Nintendo has presented to permeate the gaming market. Gaming should be more than great graphics and a great story, coupled with good controls and gameplay. Such games will scare away new gamers, and in the end alienate the old ones too.
In the end, I think that it is only natural that the new values in gaming is reflected in strong sales. It's not so that just because you are a downmarket customer (something like casual), you will not buy more games. Such a belief is wrong, and possibly even stupid (especially considering how the chartz are riddled with Wii games)
