| Kyros said: Now of course most of us know this isn't true nice lets start by making a (mainly false) statement and building up your argumentation from it. People can iterate the "Wii is for core gamers" mantra as long as they want. Unless a couple of great classic (non-japanese, non-Nintendo) game series with real gameplay make it to the Wii and have big sales success, it will sound hollow. Yes there is Resident Evil-UC, and Resident Evil-UC and ... It just remains a fact that classic computer games are a much better fit to the PS360. Consoles that have 10 times the power of the Wii and the classic controls that are a good fit for these games. And because of this they mostly stay there. There may be a Wii/PS2 version here and there but its mostly hot air. Unsurprisingly the best-selling third-party titles are social titles like Guitar Hero, or Party games like Raving Rabbids, Game party whatever. And thats not a bad thing, consoles were always great for social gaming and Nintendo took the crown this gen in this area. But the really big not psychedelic coloured games like Call of Duty 4, GTA4, Gran Turismo ... will have their success on the other consoles. Buy both of them. |
Wii is not a core console nor a casual console. It is both. That is the statement I made throughout the entire article I wrote. If you knew how to read or interpret(whichever it is with such a hater such as yourself) then you'd have known this arleady.
Can those games such as COD4, GTA IV, GT, ect have success on the Wii? Of course they can. It's just they aren't being done. And if they are being done they are marketed like games that are expected to sell badly. But as every day goes buy that the core base on the Wii gets less and less interested due to the lack of support for whatever they may want. Thus in the future it may not be possible. At launch it definetly was but who knows this holiday season. This is why my idea is so necessary, of course evne the Nintendo fanboys who would simply do anything Nintendo wanted, don't want change further. Nintendo fanboys can be so hypocritical at times.
