Truth be told, I liked my 360.  It was a nice experience to have another "flavor of pie" but I can't find myself playing it anymore.  Unfortunately, it has lost its charm in my eyes as it seems more like ad-space nowadays.  On top of that, nothing in its library interests me as I'm not the biggest fan of shooters and JRPG's.  This is not to say that this is all that the 360 has to offer but it seems to be the type of titles that really makes it shine.  Maybe someday I'll find myself playing if Banjo is any good but until then I'm giving it to my little sister.  I personally hate Saint's Row but she can't seem to get enough of it.

I truly love my Wii.  a combination of VC, Gamecube and Wii titles seems to keep me occupied and I find myself playing for 9 hours in a day despite it being the casual console.  Call me old school by any means but for some odd reason, I don't feel bothered by MIDI music and jagged pixels.  When I started gaming,  I also thought the blocky characters and not orchestrated music made more unique than any other media device.  Nowadays, HD graphics and multimedia capabilities seem to be the focus, not an extra of HD Consoles and I'm sick of it.  I actually consider motion-controls a bigger leap forward than photorealistic visuals but that's just me.


I don't know what is it but Nintendo games and hardware in general have a certain degree of charm to them.  I often can't use third-party controllers and other peripherals for that matter because of it.  I've been a Nintendo fan from NES to Wii and Gameboy to DS and getting anything else seems subpar at this point.  I really got my 360 because I couldn't wait for the Revolution.  Now that I do have my Wii, I feel complete.  So what if the third-party support is lackluster,  I seem to be one of those people who "buy Nintendo consoles for Nintendo games."  I will try some third-party games but denying yourself games like Galaxy, Brawl and Corruption, you really shouldn't buy the Wii.  But for me anyway,  I'm fully enjoying them and with that in mind and I don't regret buying my Wii.  If anything, my Wii and incredible first party titles only makes me want to see more of what Nintendo can do for the rest of this generation and the next. 

I like your sig...

Hmmmmmm yeah......I agree with disolitude about your sig....

 I know it's an uninteresting read that seems to drag but at least I've made a target for discussion.  Also thanks.

you forgot to add "100%", and good for you, i am not fully nintendo since i still have pc and ps2

You should get a Pelican Fan Stand, to solve that problem. I hear the Nyco intercooler has the ability to scorch the area around your powerplug, which can void your warranty.

Also, your sig is nice.

I hope that solves your problem though.

All the consoles are definitely worth owning. The Wii, in particular, is full of win, imo.

Also, to flamers...this is a satirical thread, or parody, or one of those good things. It's supposed to be humorous, just in case the other thread dies and you don't realize that, keep the flaming level on the lower end of harsh, if you can.

Glad that you love it. :)

Nice choice :D I am all for people picking either the Wii or the PS3, honestly I don't care which since its all a flavor thing. Asking PS3 or Wii, MGSIV or Mario Galaxy, Mario Kart or Gran Turismo 5, Tekken or Smash Bros is kind of like asking Harley or Honda. Either choice is a good one depending on your tastes. I applaud your removal of the 360. While both the Harley and the Honda make sense if you like bikes since they're the best of their relative category (American and Japanese motorcycles) it's getting a clunky scooter that breaks down like the 360 that boggles the mind.

I look forward to more like you so we can go back to the glory days of video games where the Sony PS1 and Nintendo N64 were the consoles of choice and every type of game fan had a definite place to go for the games they wanted!

good for you. i would have kept the 360 truth be told but at least another member of you fam can enjoy what it jas to offer.

i hope you enjoy you Wii fro many years.




















did that sound believable yh

Nice thread, unlike the other thread, you don't bash the consoles, you just simply state that you no longer find the 360 to suit your style.

Also like stated before you have a great signature.
