Riot Of The Blood said: Because I don't want to invest in consoles that shit on Backwards Compatibility and from every indication are the beginning of the end for a trend in gaming. That's just me though.
Didn't you buy the GameCube which had no backwards compatibility? I don't think you're telling the entire truth. You mean to tell me you would just not play games you love over backwards compatibility? I'm going to have call bullshit on that one because, you hated on the PS3 even when it did have it. I think you would enjoy gaming more if you were more open minded towards it. There are multiple games on the PS3 that you want, yet you turn the other cheek for some odd reason.
Sorry, but the philosophy here is not that people are unhappy with the Wii, its that they're uhappy with third party support and want games that the #1 console of a generation deserves. It's principle. Why settle for rushed projects when you can have the creme of the crop. I'm sorry you don't understand but your contempt is appreciated for bumping this thread if nothing else. That's why you should buy a console that has support to you liking. It makes no sense to ignore the console that has the third-party games you want. |
It makes sense if you say "360+RE5=$350". That is alot of money, 7 wii games worth of money. PS3 is even more. However if I own the Wii and the game comes to me that is $50. I want to get a PS3 for FFXIII but I wont until the game is out and the system is $200, backwards compatibility is in, and there are other exclusive games I want. If that never happens, then I wont get that system.
Backwards compatibility was one of the big selling points when Ibought my PS2, and my Wii, and will be a negative for future purchases.
What you are missing is the fundemental problem for the 360 and PS3 this gen. Price. Not everyone can afford multiple game consoles. They may get games they like slightly less to keep playing the system that is affordable. Look at how well the PS2 is still doing.
I agree is makes sense to support the consoles with the most GAMES you like, no matter who makes them. rd parties are mercenaries and will go where the money is. For many Wii supporters like me Galaxy, Brawl, Kart, RE4 and others are far outweighing all the 3rd parties.
Final* Word on Game Delays:
The game will not be any better or include more content then planned. Any commnets that say so are just PR hogwash to make you feel better for having to wait.
Delays are due to lack of proper resources, skill, or adequate planning by the developer.
Do be thankful that they have enough respect for you to delay the game and maintain its intended level of quality.
