Eventually, they find out it isnt so easy and that time has been put into the games that first started the hype and then the blame game begins. "Only Nintendo titles sell" are popular phrases now.

Really, its so easy to see that these people have the braincapacity of a peanut; they cannot create anything innovative even if they wanted to. All they can ever hope to be is being a bunch of wannabee's that can only do "Monkey see Monkey do". Just look at the sudden growth of MMO when WoW started dominating the world. Or when Halo came out. Or when jump and run games like Mario sold well.

I hate 'em not just for the fact they are keeping games like this from even being made, but also for dragging down the name of casual games so much casual is pretty much shovelware right now.

Hell, even a poor port of "Dead Rising" is making its way onto the Wii.

BAH!

See, this is my big problem with the Wii anyways. Its not the system, the system is fine. Its the perception it now has by the general public. Madworld looks like the riskiest thing for it, and goddammit, I hope it sells like hotcakes (even though I sadly predict it wont) just so that the Wii gets some damn recognition and taken seriously.

It's such bullshit that these people are the ones that pretty much shape the industry by being ignorant and pigheaded.

BAH!

They don't market your "core" titles like Microsoft and Sony do with retarded in-your-face explosions of screenshots ever few days because they assume that gamers are smart enough to find good games on their own, which many people have, such as the person with the rather large list of upcoming titles just a few posts up from here.

You know the difference between the PS3/360 and the Wii when it comes to core gamers? 3-4 good hardcore gamer type games, minimum, released on each console nearly every month. The Wii gets a trickle of them, which is washed over by a torrent of shit (and I am not trying to call casual games shit, I do play quite a few of them; I am referring here specifically to shitty games). Nintendo has no quality control, as it doesn't serve them to have any. They also don't pay attention to the hardcore anymore than is absolutely necessary to keep fanboys like you on the hook. The rest of us aren't fooled however. Talk about lying to oneself! Maybe you should go back and read this story, go and read cammy dunaway's letter... but try it with fresh eyes this time. Do go into it looking to be a nintendo apologist, read it like you haven't been a fanboy for decades... I think you'll see what I mean.

And believe me, I know your pain, I'm a sega fanboy and nothing hurts me more than admitting they are a shitpile of a company these days... but that doesn't change the fact that they are any more than your not wanting to admit that nintendo really couldn't give two shits about hardcore gamers anymore (look how much bigger thier casual market is!) means that they still care about thier hardcore audience.

What's more is that you're forgetting all of the exclusives you can get on the Wii that you can't get anywhere else: World of Goo, No More Heroes, Zach and Wiki and even Nights (I like it) all immediately spring to mind. No one has more exclusives than the Wii. Period.

I have all three systems, but I feel that the Wii is a great compliment to my other two systems simply for the fact that its line-up is way more diverse than what my 360 or PS3 can offer on its own.

Sorry if that came off wrong.

I hope you are trolling because thats as true as saying PS3 has no games or that the Xbox360 has 99% of chance to RRoD.
