So, we've all seen the "core" games for the Wii this year:
From Nintendo
Metroid: Other M
New Super Mario Bros. Wii
Sin & Punishment 2
Super Mario Galaxy 2
From third parties
The Conduit
Dead Space: ExtractionRed Steel 2
Final Fantasy The Crystral Bearers
Kingdom Hearts
Monster Hunter Tri
No More Heroes 2
Red Steel 2
Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash Up
And everywhere I look, people are yelling "this is awful" and "really disappointed", and are hating on the Wii even more than after last year's E3.
The line-up for the second half of 2009 is, really, really good for the Wii. I could say it's a matter of opinion but it's really not. There's so much diversity here and I know people acting disappointed are loving the hell out of their Call of Duty and Final Fantasy. They hate Nintendo, period, and it is irreversible. No matter what games are coming, these people aren't even listening, all they do is bitching.
I know this is a rant and it isn't of any use to anyone, but I wanted to vent. For these self-proclaimed "hardcore gamers", Nintendo is dead because they make casual games, not because of the lack of core games. They will hate Nintendo forever.
