Wii being dragged by motion control but for how long?

Posted on Jul 20, 2008 11:47:01 PM

How far can the Wii controls drag the console on through this war?

The ability to have full motion through the controls was huge innovation from Nintendo and has proved to be a great success but how long will it carry on until people begin to get bored? In fact, how many of you have already brought a Wii but don’t use it? Is the Wii sports the only game you own?

Ever since the first consoles gaming has always been sit down, accept arcade games. That was until the Wii was released, it took the gaming world by storm because it was so different. The graphics wasn’t impressive but the game play was. Do gamers really enjoy standing and moving all the time? Does it really just make for complications that are unwanted? I believe that the Wii has only survived due to the new take on controls but i also believe that eventually gamers will always come back to a Hardcore system, Playstation3, Xbox 360. The Wii may appeal to a wider audience but how much of this audience play the console all the time?

That is just my opinion but I am interested in hearing yours. What I want to know is what consoles you own, which one you play the most and what games you own for it. Write all comments below or in the forums. Users can now register to the site.

Is marijuana the best medicine?

The entire generation, and then two generations after that.



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.

First it was Wii Sports, then the lower price, then the mainstream obsession, then the high media attention, then Wii Fit, and now motion control. Haha what's next.

Shouldn't the username indicate this is just a Sony fanboy? He's just posted two articles written to make the Wii look bad.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

I would cite regulation, but I know you will simply ignore it.

How long will Wii motion controls DRAG the Wii?

the motion controls are more like a rocket blasting the Wii into outer space, the question is what's next once Wii enters orbit.

Looking at your new threads I think we got a new Wii hate week.
