why would they make their next gen is the big question, as they are still selling very well.
1. Wii – 50.39 million, as of 31 March 2009 (2009 -03-31)
2. Xbox 360 – 30.20 million,as of 1 January 2009 (2009 -01-01)
3. PlayStation 3 – 23.8 million, as of 30 June 2009 (2009 -06-30)
edit: guh hold up for a sec wrong number LOL(found em... lol)
ya thats a few months old now but still look at the numbers....
what reason do they have to get a system out by say Q3? that just does not add up. i
I could see this happening in Q3 2010 or Q4. Of course, if the peripherals aren't backwards compatible or the games/VC aren't, then you are going to have a lot of Nintendo fans switching to Sony or MS.
I don't get the graphics boner everyone has. Wii games look fine to me. Would you really not buy a game because it doesn't look super fantastically amazing? Don't be retarded.
That being said most of their games blow, but that's a different story.
a good game is not made by just the graphics, you would be right. I play old games to this day that look like crap(zelda being a prime example). Still tho it adds something a "wow factor" look at UC2 the game itself was great, how it played for the most part was done great. Add to that how it looked and you have a "holy shit" moment.
edit: it adds to the game and for the most part and does not take away. It wont make up for the short comings of the story or the way it plays but add it a good game and it is just that much better. How I see it anyways.
Here's a Q&A from ONM (yeah, yeah, its the Official Nintendo Magazine) where the guy says a bit about the difficulty:
Feature: New Super Mario Bros. Wii: Your Questions Answered! - Official Nintendo Magazine
Says that he regularly plays SMB, and can fly through World, but this one was challenging at points. Guys says only Lost Levels and World 8 of SMB3 are harder in his eyes. From another preview I read, apparently the difficulty spikes at about World 4.
I wish there were more videos, but it seems Nintendo is keeping info from leaking out as they usually do. The Q&A keeps cockteasing that there's crazy shit near the end. The only thing people have glean is that you may fight Bowser Jr. while riding in a clown car ala Bowser's flying thing in SMB3.
hes one of the old farts that loves only old games maybe ~_~?
I sorta was hoping Nintendo would go under and that we would get ports of all the good games ; ; the system to me is not worth buying for like 5 games (unless that baby game really should of been rated a 9 was it?)
I just bought Viewtiful Joe 1 & 2 for GC, because there hasnt been anything super awesome released in the past few months.
God, BRP basically says everything I type/think just synonymously.....spot on posts.
A: Who the shit cares about a Mario bros game unless you are giving it you your kid or you are a kid?
B: Graphics on Wii are OK, but like you said, the games BLOW, which is the real problem here. CHeck out Call of Duty on Ps3 and then check the Wii one. If the gameplay was exactly the same (which its not, because the Wii blows) which one would you pick? Obviously, the one with the better graphics. Of course graphics matter....
C-A: How can anyone say they don't see a game worth buying a Ps3/Xbox for and then list off FF: Crystal Cronicles? You clearly are a FF fan, and you aren't interested in FF 13? Give me a break...
C-B: If you don't believe the Xbox/Ps3 has games worth buying a system for and the Wii library warrants a purchase, you are clearly:
1. Down-syndromed
2. Between the ages of 6~9
3. Between the ages of 66~99
4. Female (In a majoirty of cases)
5. Were meant to be born female
Edit: Hint - (Hello 2 Gran Tourismo, FF 13, Bayonetta, CoD4, CoD4-2, Halo, Devil May Cry, Left 4 Dead, Borderlands, Assassin Creed 1/2, Metal Gear Solid 4, Street Fighter 4, Marvel 2, Super SF 4, Demon Souls, possibly MAG, God of War 3, Uncharted 2, Aliens vs. Predator, GTA4, Resistance, Elder Scrolls, Tekken, Bioshock, Fallout 3, Gears of War, all the upcoming Square RPGs, etc etc etc )
(Bye 2 Zelda Mario(lol) Smash Bros Metroid)???????????????????????????
Reading this thread has renewed my rage at Capcom for the fact that they switched Monster Hunter 3 from the PS3 to the Wii.![]()
Assuming this is true and I trade mine in... I better have all my VC/WiiWare titles when they send it back.
If you're not interested in good games that doesn't mean that no good games were released.
