Well imagine this because it's the way I see things Imagine that you are a sport figherman and you along with your friends have camps on a lake where you go to fish and relax. One day you notice construction going on and you find out they're building a theme park by the lake to attract more people to it. They also decide that fishing in the lake the old-fashioned way is too hard so they stock the lake with thousands of fish so anyone who even puts a fishing pole in the lake can catch a fish. Now would you think it would be fair if someone called you elitist if you complained about what was happening? Would you call those people who came to that lake to visit the theme park and fished for 10 minutes and caught a fish a sport fisherman? It's not the Wii's controls that I or many of the people are complaining about it's the games. When someone aged 3 or 4 on a video on You Tube can be given a Wii remote and nunchuk, swing their hands wildly and randomly, and knockout fighters then there's a problem. It's not a testament to how great the Wii's controls are it's about how dumbed down these casual games are. I imagine some people think it's great if soccer mom Susan who has never picked up a controller in her life can suddenly play games with a bunch of people and hold her own with almost no skill but if more and more of these games are being made at the expense of other games what exactly do we hardcore gamers have to be grateful for? |
If the games on the Wii actually made it impossible for people to make the games you like on the 360, then I would agree with this analogy.
But it doesn't, so the analogy isn't sound. I repeat: if games for the masses really did stop companies from making games for you, then this definitely would be a bad thing. But it doesn't do that, so it's okay.
Put simply: this isn't the same because you don't have to fish in the same waters as these petty commoners. Because of that, your analogy is void.
