superchunk on 20 October 2009

If you have the time and money, owning a Wii alongside your other two beasts is a great thing.

Lots of great games in retail and for download.

The price hasn't dropped here but you get a free game with every wii purchase (United Kingdom)


You get 2 free games in game: brawl and kart (or mario strikers). This is on top of sports and sports resort.

2 free games in a game?

dawg that is pimped out

Sup dawg, i herd u liek games so I put games in your games so you can play while you play.



Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.

The reason am saying this is because I feel like treating myself to a Nintendo Wii during Christmas. I don't want to be faced with a situation where after 2 years Nintendo decides to release another Console. Should I hold out for the next console or just buy the Wii cause it is that damn good.

 

Should I sell off my 360 for a Wii aswell? Already have a PS3.

 

What games would you recommend apart from the obvious (Mario and Zelda)

 

Wait for the next console in atleast 2 years. Seem we are already in the twilight of this generation... Nintendo won. Wii had won. Even MS making Natal a new launch console next year. PS3 already have redesign and it looks becoming a new console launch.Its disruption dont ask why there are no core games on the Wii yet that isnt a niche or a port.


Ninty wants the downmarket to be the upmarket and the new console within 2 years will help them

 



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

 

E3 2010- Tape runs out
