Does PC count? If so when is the cut off?

If not:
Wii, the only true console that sticks to a console's advantages and doesn't half-ass what shouldn't be on a console to begin with. Also Wii Sports is an aphrodisiac, I swear.

i'm curious, what's the console's advantage.

Platformers and games with platforming elements, fighting, plug-and-play (bug free, no patching/installs), easy fun for several people at once, and a few others.

What is NOT an advantage is online, shooters, strategy, and some types of RPGs that are not action-y.

I understand the Wii has the platformers, but have you seen the XBL games? anayway, what fighting games does the Wii have over the HD consoles.

The PS3 has that install thing, the 360 is pretty good with that, and Live brings more people together than the Wii.

For fighting games, Brawl.  Tatsunoko vs. Capcom.  Both exclusives.  Downloadable classics like Street Fighter 2 Turbo, ClayFighter, all the Neo Geo tournament fighter games.  The kendo in Wii Sports Resort will probably be more popular than everything I just mentioned though.

Wii brings more people together.  You can play 8 player Bust-a-Move.  With 8 people in the same room.  For many people, that's more fun than 1000 people playing the coolest game in the world if they're all talking on headsets, and sitting alone in separate rooms.  More people prefer 4 player Mario Kart in 1 room than 12 player Mario Kart across the world.

STREET FIGHER?

Wii brigs in more people toghether in the same place, but in terms of bringing people together, Home on the PS3 brings more people than the Wii. I won't even bring the big boys yet.

I still refuse to believe that until i have solid proof from at least 10 people.

Get me proof. I will admit defeat.

That they found it fun? Here:

http://www.vgchartz.com/swlaunch.php?reg1=All&game1=Carnival+Games+-+Wii&reg2=All&game2=&reg3=All&game3=&weeks=100&weekly=1

Sustained sales in the second year were considerably higher than in the first year, meaning that sales actually increased with the installbase after the holiday boost. More people started buying it when more people owned it.

There's a few hundred thousand for you.

Also, my cousin-in-law Dale, his wife, and their two daughters are also big fans of the game. There's four people in particular.

What the hell happened to your keyboard?  I think you should invest in fixing that before you bring any big boys.

Nevermind.

I don't need proof. I just looked at amazon review things.

98 people rated the game 5/5 stars.

I just lost faith in all humanity.

Now, hold on, there's a lesson in this.

There are a number of people who think Carnival Games is fantastic.

Now, why would this be?

Simple. For the game's very low $10 price, it is fantastic value.



iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.

Currently playing:

Final Fantasy VI (iOS), Final Fantasy: Record Keeper (iOS) & Dragon Quest V (iOS)     

    

Got a retro room? Post it here!
