Forums - Nintendo Discussion - My top 10 list of the wii myths

I think the list is quite relevant. Some of the myths may or may not be true. Lack of a variety of traditional games, etc. Will these Myths permeate the traditional-casual gamer(Halo/Madden/One tune Sally types) and hurt Wii in the long run?



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

6) Online support. Does the wii even have any real online support out for it?


I think the Wii detractors are on to something here though.  What games can you play online for the Wii?  Although I enjoy the Wii very much I think it is an unforgivable sin to launch a console these days with no online gaming whatsoever.

And really, OMG do they ever need to figure out how to get those multiplayer Virtual Console games to work online!  They're killing me!

 



Here is what I say:

Those who complain about the Wii because it isn't "big" or "powerful" enough simply are going through a Freudian phase. I mean come-on, look at the Wiimote! And they wonder why the girls like it so much? xD

Obviously fanboys who attempt to trounce the Wii for those silly arguments are trying to compensate for lack of size in other regions...

Not that I doubt that people have actually complained that the Wii is physically too small, but can anyone provide the quotes? I want to see it with my own two eyes!

My advice to fanboys: Brag about stuff that's true, not about stuff that's false. Predict stuff that's likely, not stuff that's unlikely. You will be happier, and we will be happier.

I won't blame people for less than impressed by the online capabilities of a game that hasn't reached the market yet.  ;)
