But did it stop coming with the system? Why do they have to sell it by itself?

It's not sold by itself, unless you live in Japan. They just usually count Wii Sports and Wii Play as software sales that's why the Wii has a really high attach rate, although Wii sports probably would have close to a 1:1 attach ratio if it was sold by itself.

I still <3 Wii Sports, did a couple of rounds of bowling before work today. clearly I'm rusty cause I only managed to crack 200 once out of like 4 games, almost had a run at my high of 236

I actually started messing around w/ Wii Sports again yesterday and today, just something to do while seeking for a party in FFXI. Its a lot of fun in bursts, but I wish they would've added more depth to it with leaderboards, matchmaking, etc. I know that its technically free and more of a demo than a game, but whenever I play it, it makes me want a fully developed game.

agreed, even something as simple as online would have made it that much cooler. but for a "demo" type game its still pretty darn cool. there have yet to be any multi-player games I've wanted to buy yet (excluding madden which pissed me off too quickly to play anymore) so I still give Wii Sports props cause its always a crowd pleaser, least in my living room

It's like they don't realize the true brilliance of a console that plays only mini-gaems!

6 months late, but it's a cute comment nevertheless.

As sarcastic as you're being, it really can't be overlooked that it -is- brilliant, indicated by the sales and mass market appeal.

Actually, having a Football / Wii-party today with about 16 people and lots of alcohol, 4 wii-motes, and a few different games. I'll let you guys know how it goes.

I've made the comment before. It's really good at shutting people up.

That comment is not relevant anymore (if it ever was).

Yeah but no one has been debating about which systems will sell more for a long time. Why not randomly bring up fanboys arguing about GeoW and Resistance or which system sold more, the SNES, or the Genesis, then mention how cute that is too!

Speaking of Resistance -

Another Map Pack

Yay to 2 weeks of people playing then running back to the same maps that they have been playing since day 1 because there used to it

Enough Somerset/Manchester CTF & Nottingham/Grimsby Breach/Assault....Jesus, I dont have to visit England anymore due to these fn maps reappearing, its like Im already there with the accents due to Europeans shouting over the mic with words like bollocks/tossers/cunt

1st Map Pack was good (Only $7.99 for 2 new areas consisting of 5-6 different variations for each map), but not many people bought it, and the Maps had there own section in ranked games which were unaccessable unless you bought the pack
[Insomniac did add the 2 maps within a patch for everyone, but people who paid to play got jipped, no reimbursment)

Especially in a console wars thread for fucks sake. Get the sand out of your vagina if you don't like arguing about it, or just don't read the thread.

I wouldn't touch this thread about this godforsaken topic if it didn't also double as an entire videogame forum since we lack one.

Haha, oh wow. Not only was Kotaku late as hell about the whole gamefaqs poll L-block thing, but now this guy is taking credit for it. Jeezus, what a fail site.

Did anyone pick up GH3 for the Wii? There might be a major bug, in that the audio is mono..........
