Is it really that unfathomable to simply not like the idea of a plump mexican plumber driving a kart or playing golf or soccer or what not?
Are we talking about games still, or plumbing?
This is the one I love.
He says motion controls aren't for everyone/every game.
You say the equivalent of "Well duh, don't use motion controls. Use XYZ control setup. Look at ABC game that doesn't use them."
You just agreed with him and don't want to admit it.
I never said I agreed or disagreed with motion-control. If you re-read accurately and outloud you might notice that the OP is stating since Wii has motion control it is doomed, because not everyone likes motion control.
This is like saying, since I hate football video games (despite loving football) I can not possibly like PS3 or XBox360. Why? Because they have football games! (Gag gag gag, I hate hate hate, therefore I will not buy a PS3 XBox360).
This is silly. Why? Because that also means I would be hypocritical in saying this, since Wii games also consist of football games. The OP is ignoring that, and apparently you've ignored the OP entirely as well, getting back at the actual argument from HIM, not me, that motion control means a console is doomed.
You say you met no one that disliked the Wii.
I say I have.
This point really should have died at that point. Now it's like an undead zombie: smelly, ugly, and staggering about trying to consume people's brains. ^_^
I say this, you say that. I say I've met another dozen people who love Wii, who's to say I'm wrong? Or right? OP says what he wants, I can say what I want too. But, you have to go back to the points, not the selective words you wish to read. The points.
Numbers: Checker Players > Halo Players
Checkers Age and replayability > Halo Age and replayability
Therefore, Checkers > Halo
So, Checkers is a better game than Halo.
