Unless I don't currently exist, then yes they can.



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

So, you think that you exist... but can you prove it?

I consider myself softcore.  Anyways, I think there are a ton of games on Wii that people (who care to label games) consider hardcore.  Right now I am too busy with CoD:WaW and Zelda 2....  Zelda 2 is a pretty damn tough game, and don't get me started on Ninja Gaiden 1 and 2 for NES...

By the prosecution's logic, I must exist if I own 'Casual games' for the Wii.  However, I also own 'Hardcore' Wii games.  So, while this doesn't prove that I DO exist, it shows that I don't NOT exist, either!

That article sounds like it was a written by a vgChartz member and also one who is probably a fan of Nintendo.  Minus the games listed, someone could have printed that about a year and a half ago with a more interesting reaction.  Now it's just kind of meh.
