Back in 06', I barely went on forums and I mostly read game sites to hear about certain games. Back then, I heard a bit about the "Nintendo Revolution" and how the controllers were remotes. I was really confused by this decision. But I could care less, since I was a 360 fanboy back then.
So now we go to May 06' where I got to see E3 on G4. I was amazed at the announcement about GTA 4 and Super Smash Bros:Brawl. Though a question that was bouncing around in my mind was should I get this console? And three years later, I'm proud that I mostly played the Wii at my friend's house.
Let's look at the games first, I really hate the fact that Nintendo forgets about remaking old classics (Mach Rider, Earthbound, etc.) but can make games about losing weight. Though there are a bunch of good games on the Wii like World of Goo, Brawl, Madworld, Red Steel, Conduit, and much more. Though the problem is that in every good Wii game you can see about 20 or 30 shovelware games. Though again, when you have a console that does this kind of innovation you really have to be blind to see that people will make a lot of games for it.
Though, I really can't blame Nintendo for the fact that they abandon classic remakes , they need profit. And the fact that they know that a game like Wii Fit would sell more than a remake of a classic. Though Nintendo does look for innovation instead of doing a generic FPS with loud men or a game about gangsters killing each other.
Though I have a very big gripe on the VC. Sure it's nice having to play old NES, N64, SNES, TurboGraphix, and much more on a console. But Nintendo does a very big mistake with it, adding more options to the game. Honestly, wouldn't you want to play Super Mario Kart 64 online or do Contra with 2 players? The XBLA does the same thing and continues being successful.
Though, Nintendo really needs to find a few more new IP's, because sooner or later Mario will get stale, Pokemon has been stale for years, and Zelda will get stale.
What do you think about the wii? And do you think this was a good rant?
You disappoint me, Elperin.
It's a console for less hardcore gamers. So what if it's got games around exercise? That doesn't make it bad, it's a fantastic idea to stay in shape while playing a game.
Some games like Earthbound have other reasons as to why they arn't released on the VC, but even with what it has, it's a fantastic idea. Originally posted by xfighter1138
