Forums - Nintendo - x-play weak on Wii, why?

I watch x-play several times a week, most of the coverage is on PS/360.

I do not see as much on the Wii, why ?

Wii -  68 million, 90 million - Wii HD in late 2011 - $249

360 - 38 million, 47 million - 720 in late 2010 - $299

PS3 - 31 million, 43 million - slim PS3 in mid 2009 - $299

X-Play doesn't show much of anything, anymore. It's more like a game-centric version of AotS. One review per episode? Weak.

Nintendo has historically been tight lipped about it's releases. Most third parties aren't making anything particularly "news worthy". There's no bias. It's just hard to provide news when there's no news to provide.



Because thy Wii doesn't have too many good FPS games! Seriously, it's like the most talked about genre on the show.

One review per episode!?  Yikes.  

Back when they were a part of TechTV it seemed like they had 4-5 reviews per episode.



I disagree. I watch Xplay all the time, and I feel they are bias towards the Wii. If you know Morgan, you know she's a die-hard Nintendo fangirl. Anyway, every time Nintendo puts out a new game, it has a whole episode dedicated to it, and a full episode dedicated to a preview. Most if not every Wii game coming down the pike is reviewed, and I feel there is actually a ton of Wii coverage on the show.

Don't flame them on dareware's opinion, watch the show a few times and decide for yourself.



I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.

NO NO, NO NO NO.

I record it to my tivo, and it seems that I am always fast-foward it to the wii stuff.

I can watch a episode in 5 min, after the news at the begginrg of the show.

I like Adam and Morgan as far as TV personalities though I was a bigger fan of Leo Laporte and Kevin Rose... and Yoshi!

 I used to watch the show, what I found out was they loooooooooooove the 360, loooooooooooove shooters, like the Wii and hate Sony.



I've never liked X Play.




Nintendo still doomed?

I used to love X-Play, but this whole "Gaming AOTS" sucks majorly.

I only watch it when bored.
