what konnichiwa said. They look at this and laugh, and trust me, they aren't going to have their back to the wall as part of Iwata's revolution. That's just stupid.
You can find me on facebook as Markus Van Rijn, if you friend me just mention you're from VGchartz and who you are here.
No, look if you had your way game reviewers would never have grown up and gotten over the high score merit system of worthiness.
Nintendo's just changing the system and how it rewards you. If people don't understand that they should not be reviewing games, especially ones they will have a built in bias for.
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
| konnichiwa said: You guys are getting so pathetic. I had a chat with the GT guys from Invisible Walls. They are really laughing with all the hate mails they get from the Wii fankids they get. The same Wii fankids who called them awesome last year thx to the high scores of games as Metriod and SMG. The only thing you do now is embarrassing yourself. You can't agree with whole the game sites/journalists community and hate them the next year when they didn't change. Complain to Nintendo and be happy that their are still companies like Sega who bring you games as Madworld and The Conduit. |
Though I agree with your post, why did u have to call them "fankids"? Because the Wii is for kids? Why would you do that when you are making a sensible post?
Maybe it's me though and you call fanboys of the PS3 or the 360 "fankids" as well but I doubt it...
Elaine: I will never understand people
Jerry: They're the worst.
| Arkk said: I've boycotted 1up many moons ago. To me, they are BY FAR the worst gaming site out there. Sure, the Wii may not have had a banner year in the games department, but it wasn't horrible in the least. If they seriously wanted to name 5 very good games, it wouldn't be hard at all. Here it is: SSBB MKWii No More Heroes De Blob Warioland: Shake It! And you know that there are so many more. I just don't get how people (espcially the media now) jump all over the Wii. Apparently, it's the cool thing to do. Some people on this site aren't any better. Bash the system for its lack of "quality" games but haven't even played it at all. Blah.... that's my rant. |
World of Goo, Lost Winds, Mushroom Men, several excellent Virtual Console games
Heavens to Murgatoids.
they can't accept that the casual market is expending and they hate the Wii because of that!!
their job is all about hardcore games, and it's hard for them to watch their core games like GTA IV beaten by Wii Fit and Mario Kart!
btw, why do people even try to bash the Wii
the sales are there, the games are here and are still coming, nothing is wrong, so who cares?
don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

The Wii fan kids comes from a bunch of kids who were making comments on the invisible walls facebook group. GT sucks, Wii rules, Animal crossing is much better than Gears of war 2, LBP, Resistance 2 etc....After some investigation the MOST of them were not yet 12. That's why some of the Wii staf just calls the Wii fanboys Wii fan kids.
Anyway if you want I can change it to boys.
I really hate the attitude that is going on: Their opinion is not in line with my opinion....So that means their opinion is wrong and mine is good.....They suck, blabla.
| Valkyria00 said: I listen to 1UP Yours the 1UP podcast and these are just a few of their comments. "Why the fuck do Dreamcast games looke better than Wii games" (Cause most Wii games are shovelware) "Im afraid DQ X will look worse than DQVIII" "Name me 5 Wii games in 09" "I dont know.. (That isnt shovelware or minigames) "Name 5 Wii games worth playing" "........" (Again no shovelware or minigames) "The Wii doesnt count its in its own market" (Soccer moms and grandparents should count!) "I thought this was a gaming Podcast" (Wii is a gaming machine) "Lets get to the big boys 360/PS3." (Maybe he said it cause PS360 has more higher rated games than Wiis?) These guys are the so called "proffesionals" and just look at all the bulllshit they say. I stopped the podcast afterwards. IGN has been pretty big on the Wii bashing lately also. Craig Harris (Matt barely) are probably the only voice for the Wii at IGN. 1UP sound like nothing more that rabbid graphic whores and fanboys. Edit - My main point is not to neccasarilly defend the Wii but to point out how fucked up video game journalism is. These are the professionals in the industry we love and yet they all sound no different than the people on our boards. I expect maturity and respect from out "professionals" but of course Im wrong. Im still waiting for the video gaming industry to grow up. I have a feeling its going to take a long time. |
But they cant grow up cause there playing childish games,therefore they dont mature!!!

No, look we are debating the overwhelming cynicism of journalists about the Wii. Not just one journalist at one site/ magazine, all (most) journalists have this "perspective". Everyone knows how Nintendo is treated, they have always been percieved in this same way, and it makes fans absolutely f--kn sick of people that refuse to acknowledge there is preferential treatment for select systems.
One opinion is fine, cool im happy with that. When every single article or story you read is about the PS3 and 360 instead of the Wii, and you notice the distinct lack of coverage and further more do not complain about it, you are simply encouraging the slack ass effort in 3rd party development for a system that has already won this generation, and will most likely sell much more software than either competitor will.
That's my opinion and that's why the media's message (be it casuals, kiddy, waggle, etc) is ultimately damaging the market leader.

The media will complain always last year the most articles complained about the PS3 and the lack of some great exclusives and in my opinion they were right. If we had a new game(s) this year in the holiday season on the wii like Zelda/Kingdom Hearts 3 their probably would be a lot less anti Wii had articles. The lack of new greats games on the wii is the only reason why their is so much hate lately. You don't see them complain now about the DS do you?

They bitch and complained about the DS on the very same podcast. Laughed said they couldnt name any good games. Only people who make good games are Square and Castlevania is also good. Its library was shit just like Wii.
Listen to the podcast then come back.
Dont fucking call us pathetic either you compared to some fucks from GT. Im not calling anyone from site awesome for their reviews or saying AC is better than Gears so shut the fuck up and dont compare me to some random people from another website. PS3/360 had much better year than Wii Im not denying that and Im not Wii fan kid either. I play PS3 alot and played Gears online plenty of damn times.
If they bashed the PS3 or 360 I wouldve started a thread too. Thing is they dont Wii gets the most hate I think its unprofessional. Theyre suppose to give opinions not talk shit and spit out their mouths shit that isnt true.
