5 - Fucking Operation Rainfall...seriously.


Are you disappointed that people want the three games, or that NoA is not releasing the three games?

 

PS3 is my favorite as it has most of the games I like (I'm not into shooters or online gaming too much).  Right now, I'm playing my Wii more due to a game that Nintendo of America doesn't want me to be playing.  I played my Xbox 360 more when MS cared about the Japanese market, but not so much after they stopped caring.

I'm pissed off knowing that Operation Rainfall even has to exist in the first place.  Wii has been a dead zone for years now, and it was a hotspot until Mario KArt Wii came out, then virtually NOTHING of value came out until New Super Mario Wii.  There was a full year and a half where NOTHING came out, and that pissed me off.  Then we had a great winter last year, with Kirby's Epic Yarn and Donkey Kong (and MEtroid Other M and Epic Mickey, which both were pretty bad)....then nothing again.  We're getting Zelda, which I have no intention of buying in spite of the pedigree behind it....so the 3 games from Operation Rainfall COULD give me reason to get the system out, but instead I'm sitting here not giving a shit because Nintendo doesn't give a shit about me.  

I want these games, I want to play with my Wii, because for a period (the first year or two of its life) of time, it was my single favorite system of all time, now it's a paperweight.  Those games could make it great again and Nintendo doesn't fucking care.  Seriously pisses me off.  then again, that's a problem with the COMPANY, not the SYSTEM, since the games that are out are phenomenal.  I've enjoyed games like Smash Brothers, Mario Galaxy, and Twilight Princess more than practically anything else this generation, but like I said, too much shit and Nintendo doesn't give a damn.

Wii because of the games, but then again i've never owned a non-Nintendo console for a long laundry list of reasons

I'm curious what these reasons are.

I see it as a problem of NoA.

The Wii.

It has the most balanced library of the games this gen. Women, children, adults, teenage, old-school... and even hardcore games can find good gamers among its library.


looks for Fallout3, GTA, SF4, ME nope cant find these

Are you saing that those are the only good hardcore games in ther market?


nope, but those are popular series, and some of them dont even have an equivalent..



360 because of the online. Honestly party chat alone makes XBL better than PSN in my opinion.

PS3 has the best exclusives though. Uncharted, Resistance, etc.

Wii was fun for a couple months but I really don't like it that much anymore.

looks at Wii and a computer and finds your point null


the fact that u would even need another platform kinda makes my point for me.



Xbox 360's Kinect ... so 360.

I know I was previously known as a great PS3 supporter, but lately I've been really getting my dollar's worth with great 360 exclusives for Kinect.Child of Eden is what started it for me. Now I'm enjoying great exclusives like Fruit Ninja and Dance Central. The lasting appeal of it all is amazing, and I was a fool to wait so long before jumping in.

I also started to play the amazing -and true sequel to Final Fantasy 8- Lost Odyssey.

I'm certainly not sure I can agree with this point at all.  ALL systems have games for all ages, and of them, I think PS3 is the most balanced.  It's got pretty much everything.  it and the Xbox share like 3/4 of their libraries so it comes with practically everything but the marios, metroids, and zeldas.  That said, it has it's own mascot: Sackboy.  I dunno, I just always felt PS3's library was far and away the most varied, which is the main reason I love the console, since I enjoy a wide range of game genres.

I see your point but I believe having a Wii/PC combo is the best combo to have.  You can get every game except for Sony exclusives.
