Nah, the Wii is two Gamecubes duck-taped together :P
Seriously, I agree with your approach, ssj12 and I must tell you I'm a bit surprised; I considered you a Sony fan and a Nintendo hater; guess I was wrong. OT, I also think people shouldn't compare the Wii with the other 2 consoles; it's like you said it; different thing, like handheld

I think you missed me saying "I OWNED both a Nintendo Wii and an Xbox 360" at one time or another.

I dont hate the Nintendo Wii (I do hate the 360, Microsoft just doesnt know how to make a console or a good game line-up). The Nintendo Wii just didnt have much games and isnt my cup of tea. Plus the fact my friend both own a Wii so I can just simply borrow theirs if I want to play a game (waiting on StarFox Wii).


That's what I'm saying; I misunderstood you. Sorry


lol i wasnt meaning it meanly (obviously) i think a lot of people here missed that comment and labeled me as a Sony fanboy when I've always told people to call me a PC Fanboy. lol


 *wipes tears off his face* OK, friends?

Nice writeup ssj12! I wonder how long people are going to believe it's true that "Nintendo (Wii) isn't competing with Sony (PS3) or Microsoft (XBox360)." I sometimes opine that it's the same kind of non-competition that existed between MTV and radio.

 thanks, I think people fail to realize its indirect competition because most people who bought a Wii will eventually buy a PS3 or 360 for the traditional gaming. Its the same with MTV and Radio. 

3rd Parties aren't really taking the Wii seriously meaning they will continue releasing worse games then what they released on the PS2.

All profits off the games that cost them a pathetic amount to make and publish go to makiing games for the PS3 and 360. Will 3rd parties actually make decent/good games? Yea they will, even total crap games that get sequels get a nice shining making it shiny crap.

 Well, like my daddy used to say "If you take a turd and cover it in raisins it's still a turd."





Generation 8 Predictions so far.....(as of 9/2013)

Console that will sell most: Nintendo Wii U

Who will sell more consoles between Microsoft/SONY: SONY

 

mmmmmm. raisins!

Good read, and yeah, ssj12 is a über-1337-hardcore-PC-fanboy, not really Sony fanboy.

And I agree with you, unfortunately the Wii will become the craper of 3rd parties like the PSOne and PS2, but that won't block great games to appear.



I like what you said, never really thought of it that way. I For the most p[art you are right, i bought a Wii to see the new gaming experiences i will be getting this gen, but i will also be picling a PS£ or 360 later when the prices come down because i still like traditional/clasical gaming method.
+1 4u



Nice write up and some good thoughts in there, though I still don't agree about the Wii not being a next-gen machine (whatever that may be) and being a second gen creative device (not saying you're wrong, just talking opinions).



before you explained your "Wii is second in its gen" thing i thought you were refering to the virtual boy.
anyway yes, that was good, and some good points made, though i personally won't be buying any other consoles this gen [can't afford] and i imagine like last gen most people will just buy 1, but i reckon it could move someway to ehat you say... ie it will still be mostly 1 console each, but the %age will be lessened by more people wanting both experiences.
