Nintendo Wii

[Busyman™]

I don't think it's that bad and I'm still considering getting a Nintendo as my first next gen console (after missing Nintendo at the last gen, opting for a PS2 instead, and feeling the need to play Zelda and Mario again).

The Gamecube was a great system if you wanted play a handful of games. As I said, my GC library is super small although I had all the systems. I'd imagine if I only had a GC that my library would've been slightly bigger 'cause I'd have got all the multi-platform titles on the GC but even then it would've still been a worse investment. This is even with fact that the GC cost less.

I'm just glad I didn't pay for it. Resident Evil 4 was clearly the best game on the system but it was one of few good games making the GC a worthy purchase.

I think anyone can agree with me when I say if Nintendo made more M rated games then I'm sure it would be a more widely bought system and it would have better games too. Secondly, the Gamecube controller sucks major ass, imo.

That's true, the only real good game on the GC was a 'M' rated.

it wasn't though. that's the misconception that's causing nintendos downfall. the gamecube has quite a few uberpwnage games. they don't have tits and swearing though so lolboys decide they're bad before even trying them.

Well there was:

Metroid Prime
Metroid Prime 2 Echoes
Super Mario Sunshine
Resident Evil 4
LOZ Wind Waker
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Star Wars Rogue Squadron II Rogue Leader
Star Wars Rogue Squadron III Rebel Strike
maybe there are about 5 more.

It's still a suck ass list. I personally didn't care for the Metroid Prime series that much. I still beat them though.

the Wii is not a graphics hotrod and it was never intended to be. it's a GameCube with improved processor speeds. they're really placing their bet on the appeal of the controller and the built-in NES/SNES/N64 emulators.

personally i am eager to try the controller, but i'm also a little wary of their "we're trying to make a console that non-gamers want to play too" claims. doesn't seem like they're following through on that. i mean yes, if grandma is dying to play FPS and tennis games then the Wii controller will make it easier for her, but where are the games that are supposed to appeal to grandma. the kinds of games they're showing so far are just not very unusual or surprising.

I've watched the entire lot of Wii clips...i cant wait to try the new controller out...The new Zelda looks awsome, Metroid Prime doesn't have the graphics but it looks fun.

Looks like thanks to Nintendo, the whole gameplay vs graphics argument will last for another 1000 years. Oh and Red Steel will awsome to play. I just want to play the baseball game though =D
