Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Which major gaming site / community hates Wii the most?

frybread on 28 October 2008

Of the sites that cover all games

I'd have to say Kotaku.  It's gotten so bad, they're just downright trolling these days.  Go to kotaku.com and just read any Wii story - here's the first one I saw:

My current Wii doesn't get much use. OK, it gets no use.

or this one,

I think we can all agree we wouldn't be caught dead playing candy-coated shit like Wii Music.

The comments are even worse, especially since most Wii owners have left the site due to snobcore trolling from the journalists themselves.

 

Can you think of a site that hates Wii as much or more than Kotaku?

 

On the flipside, MTV's multiplayerblog is refreshingly unbiased, professional, and actually makes an attempt to understand Wii.

VG Chartz, by far.



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

Disagree, vgchartz users aren't scared of Wii games, and will accept them for what they are. This was the best review of Wii Music I've read:

There are PS3 and 360 fanboys here who hate Wii, but the mods do a relatively good job at shutting down trolls compared to other forums.

The big four are:

IGN, Gametrailers, Kotaku and Neogaf. I dunno the other sites but these sites are obvious against the Wii...



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

 

E3 2010- Tape runs out

Kotaku almost always post SOMETHING about the PS3, but the wii gets scraps.

Anyway, vgchartz is more of a pro Wii site than anti-Wii.

I know, every 5 minutes it's another RFOM2 post or an update about an exclusive Kratos character from Best Buy. Then there's a daily Wii post about how it's destroying gaming or how "wii is for grandmas!!!"  I might as well block kotaku from my browser, if I wanted to be trolled I'd read Sonydefenseforce.
