Is history repeating itself? (Casual Gamers)

hahahah the wii hate continues.

first off to answer th3 "where's the third party support?!?!?!?" question.
it wasn't until within the past couple months that we've seen 3rd parties (konami, capcom, square enix) really come out and say they are shifting their focus to the wii. games take time to develop. and i doubt that any of these multi-million dollar companies want to come out and show some half assed product.

also you can argue that many of the games that were shown that we know about are multi-plat. but i'll argue JUST BECAUSE they are on the wii makes them different in their own right. any game that incorporates the motion control is going to be a vastly different experience then one on the 360/ps3 (madden anyone?). so it's up to the user to determine how much of a benefit or hinderence that is.

as far as wiifit and the whole gimmick argument goes? hey it's up to developers (nintenod and 3rd parties) to *GASP* USE THEIR IMAGINATION. something like that could work out very well in terms of game immersion. the excercise thing is just an ADDED feature.

if developers actually spend the time to use the perriphals there is a lot of possibilites that could make that fun, new and exciting. do i think this will happen? time will tell. is it going to make or break my decision to support the wii in the future. not likely.

as for ckmlb and the fps comments. come on dude i haven't seen a ton of innovation in those games. maybe if you're comparing the first doom to fps now yes. but it's very slim insignificant changes at best.

i mean (NOT YOU) how can people knock on mario, metroid, zelda games as the same old same take on the same variation. but not fps'? final fantasys? god of wars? gran turisom? tekken? and so on and so on.

bottom line everyone likes what they like and should just play what they want to play.
