Forums - Nintendo - Ubisoft hopes Wii is the marijuana of the gaming world (and much more)

wii could be thought of as a "gateway" consol. however, don't forget what crowd nintendo is attracting. nintendo is attracting people like my girlfriend who likes the wii and hates ps3/360 for the same reasons she refused to go to watch the movie 300 with me. she hates violence, gore, and action movies in general and her tastes are going to change just because it's a video game instead of a movie. she loves wii sports and brain age and is excited for wii fit. nintendo is not broadening the audience just with the controller but also with the software.

if ubisoft thinks these people are going to just get bored with these "lesser" "non-games" they aren't going to do well with these new gamers.

PS3 - Coke. Extremely overrated and expensive.

X360 - Extacy. Makes you feel awesome, but chance of breaking down not too small.



This sounds to me like Ubisoft, is ready to give Wii more big game support, at least brand wise. Meaning we may start getting the Tom Clancy's and there other big brandnames, just for the Wii or something like that. Either way I'm intrigued.



Heroin Hero! And Rehab Hero!

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

Yes, the Wii truly is a lot of fun to play while high... Wait what did he say?



I'm a mod, come to me if there's mod'n to do. 

Chrizum is the best thing to happen to the internet, Period.

Serves me right for challenging his sales predictions!

Bet with dsisister44: Red Steel 2 will sell 1 million within it's first 365 days of sales.

if wii is weed. PS3 and 360 is what? crack?

Wii is weed, you can do it every day and feel great doing it. Ps3 and XBOX are meth and cocaine respecivley. XBOX is expensive and a good time while PS3 is a lot like XBOX, but not as fun.  



Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.

Nintendo Treehouse is what happens when a publisher is confident and proud of its games and doesn't need to show CGI lies for five minutes.
