"Which is why i remember reading there are a lot of wii owners who own PS3 or 360's, which makes sense since they would have already played it or higher quality games of the genre."

There should be a lot of PS3/360 ownership, since Bioshock didn't sell too well.

Or perhaps late ports just sell less in general, no matter the system.



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

this dude is trying to tell me that the Wii is on par with the damn PSP?

you sound like a viral marketeer boy

whatever your name is


they said Tekken couldn't be done on the Wii..right?
look at the PSP version

also..don't forget the classic controller or that the Wiimote can sense motion in different ways, wich can also replace button input

or the gamecube controller for that matter

all your arguments fall flat on it's face

especially when talking about UI
the Wii has the most colorful and diverse UI compared to all other consoles out there this gen


the Wii can handle all those games with simply less graphical output

that's the only difference

as shown by MW:Reflex

ever seen how much detail went into SSMB?
no?
those graphics look great, so it doesn't have to be HD to look good

dude,

go to bed

I can see you're tired

you win.

I agree, a lot of people probably owned a 360 with a PS3 and there was obviously no need to rebuy it.

"So they should give the wii "the games" maybe you should be more clear so i know what the fuck games youre talking about. Is it similar games to the PS3/360? Is it "quality games" whats quality to you?"

Why should it be specific. when I'm asking for support on a large scale? This is about principle, not demands.

I don't agree, but regardless, you'd better never use the combined HD userbase argument or I will throw this in your face.

So youre argueing about "the games" but refuse to even specify what you want from them, yet feel the need to bitch about them not giving you "the games" you want yet cant even specify what you want? So you dont even know what you want but expect them to produce it.

"Not true.

I wrote "in general", not "as an absolute rule". RE4 is another exception, especially since all the features were left in. Not the graphics, but the features.

"So youre argueing about "the games" but refuse to even specify what you want from them, yet feel the need to bitch about them not giving you "the games" you want yet cant even specify what you want? So you dont even know what you want but expect them to produce it."

What part of "about principle" did you not get? If you did, you would know why being specific would be against the point.

Haha what are you talking about? Bioshock was ported in october of 2008, there has been over 14 months of new PS3 owners that may or may not have had a 360.

what would get thrown in my face and do i have some history of claiming something about HD console userbase or something that im not aware of?
