Hahaha, WTF. I don't think this thread is going to end up well, but i guess i could comment on something.
Nintendo is the same company as it was 20 years ago, that's why it's so successful today. What they were 5-15 years ago, is where they failed.

We can use any standard we like to count any game out of core games, but it doesn't make the method or the conclusion correct. When games went to 3D, the core was ditched completely, with the exception that the old franchises were put into 3D in order to get the core audience to transform as the new audience.

I warned my 3 yr old nephew when he was 2 that if he doesn't stop playing Mario Kart Wii by the time he is 5, I will chop off one of his fingers everytime he does a jump trick or wheelie.

*walks in* *Reads OP, can't think of anything but this won't end well* Good night folks *walks out*

Can you get him to tell madkiller that he isn't hardcore enough as he only started playing games at 5 and he isn't allowed to be a gamer anymore. Please because no-one who wasn't playing games at 2(thanx to your nephew) are not gamers and aren't allowed to play games.

I can't imagine people playing video games at the age of 3. I remembered when I was in kindergarten when one of the kids talked about a Gameboy, and he was 4.

Wii games don't count.

Pyro you are correct. Wii isn't hardcore. Tell your nephew not to play games anymore!

You really are one of the most hypocritical posters I have ever seen. You posted this in another thread:

'Just because someone gives a game a mediocre score does not mean they are biased or have been paid to do it. People are entitled to their own damn opinions just like you and me. If you don't like it that's just too damn bad. I am sick of people that believe the games they like should receive all perfect scores from every reviewer in the world. FYI, SSBB received mostly amazing scores and is so important to many people and I would give it a 6-7 because I have never liked any of those games in that series ever. Not everyone likes the same stuff that you do, get over it.'

How the hell can you make this post and then write that pile of garbage you call an opening?!

Please finish Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn on hard and we'll talk again.

Nobody should have to suffer through such brutal punishment... ;_;

DISCLAIMER: By brutal punishment I do not mean that the game is bad, I mean that it is hard. Thank you.
