What's so great about the wii?

Not a flame-bait question, nor a troll question, I simply want to hear your opinions n shit.

There are a lot of good things about the Wii:

 

-It does things differently to other consoles, tries to put a fresh take on things, and unashamedly so

-It's small and economical

-It's so reliable

-Nintendo games still define greatness in so many genres (Platformers, Kart racers, Party games, etc.)

-Multiplayer focused-games, and games with offline co-op/split screen, of which PS360 has a real shortage.

-SD card slot. An under-appreciated aspect, but one which gives the Wii up to 32GB of flash storage.

-Virtual Console + Wiiware

Nice tread.

Well, if you want to praise the Wii then LOOK NO FURTHER THAN THE 2010 LINEUP!!!

GOTY candidates abound!

My most anticipated game?

Metroid:Other M.

Zelda Wii or Super Mario Galaxy 2 or even Red Steel 2.

Next year will be heavenly good.
There is a small chance we will have a new Metroid, Mario and Zelda in the same year!

I don't have a link, but I love the Wii because my fiancee will actually ask to game with me because of the Wii, and that me boys is a hell of a feat.



No one in the world ever gets what they want, and that is beautiful.

man i love the Wii alot i will even go as far as to say it is the single greatest console ever made. i think the only thing keeping this statement from being true is the fact that the console doesnt have to many quality RPG's. besides that the system just got a port of the best shooter of this gen REFLEX and im not a fan of sports games unless your talking over the top sports games.

next year is really looking to be the year where gamers without Wiis will look like fanboys. how can you not own a system with that amount of quality software? also i tend to like a lot of games more because they arent hyped to death like if its the second coming.

for next year im looking forward to these titles.

The Grinder(hope they get right what they got wrong in the conduit...ONLINE!)
No More Heroes 2
T vs C
dynamic slash
sin and punishment
Lord of The Rings Aragorns Quest (i think it will be a amazing)
RedSteel 2
Call of Duty 2010
Mario Galaxy 2 (the fist bing my GOAT)
METROID:Other M
E3 Zelda Wii trailer (i think its 2011)
Monster hunter 3 (hoping for Wii speak and free online)
Goldeneye 2010 (hope it of quality)

Wii ware games
