I always knew you had the dark force running though you.

But you agree it is a game PSRock. Ssj12 says it isn't.

Go easy on SSJ12. He's making sense, but he's forgetting about people like me, who are dying for anything new and weird whatsoever. I've been playing games my whole life, and I'll pay for any new way to play them. Somehow that makes me a Nintendo fanboy because Nintendo is the only company who comes up with new control schemes.

It's targeting everybody, every kind of gamer, every kind of non-gamer, everybody. This is a good thing.



@FishyJoe, HELL YES. Pachter's down! Who's next?

wiifit is whatever you guys think it is, but it comes with a board.

You are right. So you would easily understand that even though a product is aimed for one specific group others will still use it. That is pretty obvious. The thing were the focus of the product is coming from. The Wii is a VIDEO GAME console. This is the exact same problem that Sony has had with the PS3. It has features not specific for video games. That is where the issues seem to lie. Just like Sony has Blu-ray, Nintendo is pushing fitness.

Now here is the major issues I have here. Sony gets bitched at over having a new media format that supports both movies and games. Yet Nintendo, a company that has been around for a very long times and always focused on games, is pushing fitness. FITNESS and VIDEO GAMES does not even add up. Nintendo is slowly moving their focus away from gaming, their own heritage. It is just that the movement is so slow that few is noticing. The thing is that they are not being questioned on this at all. 

If you people are about to say "but but DDR." Here is the thing, the main focus for DDR was not the fitness. It was the general interaction between user, game, user movement, and the music. Yes, the movement burned some fat, but that was not the focus of the game. 

Some of you said, WiiFit has mini-games. Guess what? Just like Wii Sports, the mini-games are just tech-demos to show the overall properties the balance board has. Basically just to show the potential uses in other games. 

Go reread my editorial now and you will better understand where I'm coming from.

@Kasz216 - the definition changed as time past. That is all. Time changes a ton of words meanings. Come now, the word own used to just mean to own something, now its both to own something and to defeat someone. 

So your saying Wii Sports also isn't a game? I think you just don't understand the definition.

Wii Fit in general is going to be exactly like Wiisports. With the added ability to set goals. It's going to have the same system wiifit had to judge you on everything.

It's a game as much as Wii Sports is a game... and they both are games.  It has other uses sure, so have other games and systems.  The difference is.  Wiifit is one game.

Blu-ray is a main focal point of the entire system. 

@ssj12

Jesus Christ. The hypocrisy is so mounting in your post, I am drowning in it. I'll let someone else disect it because my mind is crying as it is.

Corrent, it's an interactive tech-demo. It's just like that head-tracking demo that everyone who saw that was like "I want that in my games."

BTW, I added another 2 sentences to the arguement in my last post.

The big difference being that Wii Fit is an optional accessory, it isn't being forced on Wii owners at enormous expense.

Ah, in that case i'd just say you have no clue what a game actually is and everyone will have to agree to disagree with you.
