100 Halo clones? Could you please list them, i don't think i have ever played a game that plays or feels like Halo.  Haze or RFoM would be the only ones, and thats kinda pushing it.

No, and I can't imagine why anyone reasonably would be. It just doesn't make any sense to hate a game for being aimed at a different audience. I mean, I wasn't jumping up and down hoping Madden or Halo 3 would fail. Really, all of these new audiences that Nintendo is reaching are good for the market, so why would I or anyone else be happy if these people simply went un-served? It's not like the people buying Wii Music would have picked up games like Zack and Wiki or No More Heroes if Nintendo was making some other game.

Also, thanks for the vid, alfredofroylan.  That was quite entertaining.

The differences between most fps games and Halo would be very similar to the differences between most Wii Music clones and Wii Music ...

I would be, it would say not everything nintendo craps out is gold.

I just want a "real" game that will pull me back to the system.

And please don't let a new wii sports game be it!

Yes, maybe Nintendo will bother to try next time.

Okay, this is exactly what I'm disagreeing with. If it's Wii Music we're talking about, how do you know if Zack & Wiki or NMH took that much more effort? Others like Carnival Games is probably a different story, though I know little about it.

To add to this ... Is "effort" really a good measure for the value of a creative work? If you had one of the great artists produce a simple sketch in 20 minutes would it necessarily be a worse work than something a student produced over a semester?

Very good point. I guess the issue is, when people make money off things that are easy, effortless, and not very brilliant (in their opinion), it angers them. They hate when people get rich off of stuff like the Pet Rock. I admit I'm a little guilty of this at times, too.

i want it to fail, it is a disgrace for what video games are and as all people say its going to sell good, because its got wii on its name, but blah if nintendo think that wii music is innovative, i think i will prefer to play with just a normal controller and good games...

I think I would seriously look down on someone that let a videogame's sales either ruin or brighten their day. If I was having an awesome day, just got laid, had a nice lunch, played some games, my daughter manages to finally get potty trained and then I look on a forum to see 1 million Wii Music sales in one week and THAT ruins my day? I'm pathetic. Same goes for the reverse.
