Zombies, and anthropomorphic animals with hi-res textures... low-rez textured anthropomorphs are so 4 deh kiddiez

I dunno, there have been A LOT of of hyped new IP's from the competition this gen:

Bioshock, Lair, Heavenly Sword, Gears of War, Uncharted, Mass Effect, GRAW, etc.

EDIT: Sorry, I read that wrong. I thought you had written 'most hyped games' as opposed to 'the most hyped games' in which case, you're completely right. My apologies.

 Talk about hostility... I'll reiterate so not to make anyone else angry if my simple setence manages to provke that. The "People who like high graphics and traditnal games base" is still higher due to the PS3 and 360 numbers combined surpassing the Wii by a decent margin.

 When you make an angry rant and try to imply the person you're flaming is younger than you really doesn't work.

@Ssyn

Hi guy, you must like MG4, and I'm guessing your a PS3 owner or about to be or want to be, also I'm guessing that you love yourself some HD.

Oh by the way check out the front page and see that % next to the total Wiis sold, Wii used to have less and less of the %.

Currently the trend is showing Wii sales to be roughly 2:1 the HD userbase being the lesser, it's a good run but yea the trend is also growing slowly in other words 2:1 is slowly turning into 3:1, that's kind of impressive to me considering the company the Wii is in.

Oh and your math is askew by the way, Subtract 6 million from the Xbox's install base then you have yourself a fair number as the 360 was out 1 year ahead of time.

So thats what? 13 million + 13 million is around 26 million (these are rounded up by the way)

versus Wii's 27 million... hmm ahh that seems like.. wow guess Wii user base would be larger than Xbox360 if you take out it's 1 year advantage over the PS3 & Wii.

But either way with that kind of math it's scary the difference when it actually hits 50% market share considering Xbox360 had a year head start.

Of course not, but that doesn't make mario bad because it has the same character in the last 20 yrs.

Oh and btw there are alot of nintendo ips with new charcters. The existing games don't need anymore. 

 Lol that's funny. He shows Ninja Gaiden Black upscaled with a 360 to prove wii's graphics are bad, and he is still wrong. 

 To be fair to both sides of this argument, SSBB doesn't have to render the other side because it is 2-1/2D and Ninja Gaiden is not the best example for shaders, shadows or texture quality.  On the other hand, Wii has had a few really beautiful games.

 More importantly gaming as a whole does not revolve around the current batch of home consoles. This newfound argument of the PS360 > Wii isn't applicable to the gaming world at large. Outside the 7th generation consoles you have the DS and PSP, the former of which dominates Japan's software charts on a routine basis. The 6th generation consoles, which includes the PS2 whose LTD sales roughly double all the 7th generation system's sales to date. Cellphone games. Retro gamers with entire collections of older titles they play. Cellphone games. The worldwide PC gaming market which ranges everywhere from PopCap games, to World of Warcraft, my late grandmother playing online bridge, obsessive lunatics who spend more time modding games then playing them, me screwing around on flash games RubangB recommends, to hundreds and hundreds of other niches out there.

Not to mention the gaming industry's continuing focus on re-releasing old titles. From remakes, to collections, digital re-releases on consoles and computers. Something that clashes with this assumption the majority are more interested in high-end graphics. Then there's what wrong with these sweeping generalizations that paint the HD console and Wii owners as single minded collectives. Suggesting everyone who owns the HD consoles because of their graphical capabilities, or there are no Wii owners interested in traditional gameplay.

Can't help but think we'll see more of this PS3/360 > Wii jargon as some people enter the bargaining stage. =P

I do agree that the Wii has been somewhat disappointing this generation. It's not because I hate Nintendo, or I think it's kiddy, or anything like that. I've actually been a pretty adamant Nintendo fanboy from NES to Gamecube, even though I owned the Sega Genesis and the PS1 & PS2. But, I've always wanted Nintendo to do better during the N64 and GC era. I've always called people ignorant when they labeled Ninty first party titles "kiddy."

When the Wii was released, I was pretty hyped as well about it. Sony was having this ultra-expensive console, I didn't know the 360 would have so many jRPGs judging from the original Xbox (which is why I waited a long time after launch to buy one). All of my other friends bought a Wii as quickly as they can because of all the hype. Months dragged and they were all still playing Wii Sports and Wii Play only. I thought Zelda: TP was on orders of magnitude better on the Gamecube because of the controls. I decided to get a PS3 and then a 360.

But once Brawl came out, I got the Wii the same day. But after a week, I just played that game on all of my friends' Wiis and mine just sat their collecting dust compared to the PS3 or 360. So I sold mine.

Frankly, I'm not seeing this mass migration lately of all the third parties scrapping HD development and going to the Wii, like people have been talking about on this site. All the games that I care about are being announced for the HD consoles, and that doesn't seem to be changing. Lost Odyssey, Infinite Undiscovery, Ninja Gaiden 2, MGS4, Tales of Vesperia, Final Fantasy XIII, Eternal Sonata, Blue Dragon, Little Big Planet, Gran Turismo 5, Uncharted, Mirror's Edge, etc.. Note - these are not all "Bald Space Marine" games that Wii fanboys like to stereotype HD console fans for playing.

Unless there is something really amazing that comes to the Wii to make me want to re-buy it, the two losing HD consoles have me covered.
