So i have been hearing about how the wii is revolutionizing game play and that all things will go the way of the wii.

This makes me sad.  I personally don't like miis (they are creepy), i am sick of mario and I dont need to work out in front of the frickin tv (since I spend to much time in front of it anyway).

 dont get me wrong,  If you love nintendo, then yay!  you have the most popular system...hurrah hurrah!

But don't make the MGS and the GTA and the Gears of War and the Oblivion and all the great games go away.  What if everyone jumps on the idea of copying the wii and all these games are gone because they are too expensive to produce and you can produce carnival games for a lot less and sell 10 million copies?!?  Is anyone else afraid of this?  Am I the only one?  I could care less if sony or MS or wii actually 'wins' the console war.  I do care about having the games i love to play available...and they certainly aren't wii striper pole dance or wii cheerleading or mario dating or carnival games.

 Anyone else worried?  I guess there is always pc gaming if only nintendo and nintendo sycophants remain...


 

You read my mind man. What you mentioned is the reason why I'm bothered by the wii's sucess. Dev's may shift focus away from us (the market that carried them all these years) to appease the new casuals and in the future, I'm worried that Sony and M$ may go the cheap console route with casual games and leave the truly hardcore in the dark. If that happens, that would be the year I finally say goodbye to gaming.
