Forums - Nintendo - Anybody else annoyed by "wii" in most game title for the wii?

 

Okay I for one am annoyed by wii on the end of a lot of game titles for nintendo's console. Its just like what they did with "64" after every N64 game. Its un-necessary really.

Are they too lazy to think up titles so they just throw "wii" at the end. You don't see "Uncharted PS3" because they decided to use a name like "Drake's Fortune" and now "Among theives". You don't see "Halo 360" either

Here's a short list of them just by typing "wii" in the game search option. I won't include Wii fit/sports/play because they follow the whole "wii" line of games. But here's the ones that bother me:

Mario Kart Wii

G1 jockey wii

karaoke joysound wii

big brain academy: wii degree

resident evil 4: wii edition (whats wrong with just Resident Evil 4?)

Powerful major league 2 Wii

Crayon shin-chan wii (more like crayon shit-chan wii)

Home Tutor Hitman Reborn! Dream Hyper Battle! Wii (I did not make this title up)

Major Wii nygero! gyroball (major wii nygero? are you serious)

 

okay sorry my list got longer than I intended. but you get the point.  What do you guys think, Does it piss you off or is it okay?

Super Metroid.
Super Mario World.
Super Mario Bros.
Super Mario Kart.
Super Adventure Island 2.
Super Street Fighter II Turbo.
Super [insert game name from the SNES era here].

How come all the games I listed are some of the best ever?

Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

I didn't say they aren't good games, because they are. But why is the "super" before each one?

I know I'm playing the SNES, I don't need to be reminded by the game title.

And you notice nintendo is the only company that does this.

Exactly. Third parties should have nothing to do with this though.

Nintendo created that concept, and if they can sell more software because of the word "Wii" in it, good for them! I have to admit seeing companies "utilize" the Wii this way (companies like Ubisoft, hehe) makes me sad. The Wii is not a dump.

Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

I don't care at all--there are slightly more important things in gaming to be worked up over than naming conventions.
