Anyone here still think the Wii is a fad?

the Wii is following this trend....I think you guys really ARE afraid of the new way of gaming..wow..^^''

and I thought Sean Maelstrom was just joking....

 

Afraid? I doubt it. Interested in "new way of gaming", absolutely not. If you are talking about ds/wii type games as a new way of gaming, that is.

 

What is this "new way of gaming" anyway? Is it related to the controller which is so awkward with many of the Wii's biggest titles that after Smash Bros and Mario Kart came out two Gamestops near me were both sold out of old gamecube controllers people had bought to play those games? Is it related to not having voice chat or any kind of matchmaking so children are 100% safe? Is it related to playing slightly updated versions of the same games that were big in the mid 80s and calling them new? I really fail to see where any part of the Wii is new. There were minigame collections, strange control methods (Eye Toy for instance) and childish adventure games long before the Wii came along, I can't think of a single thing that is really new or evolved other then the marketing.

 

There's really no point even bothering with you, as you don't respond to any posts but the ones that agree with you.
