It's not like I was trying to not like my Wii, but it's hard to like something that doesn't appeal/satisfy you.

Like I said, there were a handful of decent games that I liked, but not enough to keep me from selling it and questioning whether or not I would buy another Nintendo system in the future.

But yeah, I can see how you got what you said from what I said. :rolleyes:
Love how you can't tell the difference between things for kids, and thing for everyone. A Dora the Explorer game is for kids, but a Mario game is for all ages.

So you're blaming Nintendo gamers for ruining your gaming hobby? That is funny.

I love watching Nintendo ADR fall, too. Broke down into 15 and falling...

Has anyone ever described you as being sociopathic in any way? I would like to hire you in human resources specialised in firing long time employees. Some people just want to watch nintendo burn...

that low stock is good to buy now. in a few years people who buy into the stock now will be laughing.

Is this really an issue? First I've ever heard someone complain about it.

Also if everything is industry standard then the industry will never progress. At one time 2D was industry standard.

Nintendo pretty much has to fix the current inability for the system to handle more than one tablet at once.

I'm not sure how much else about this system is known, but my presumption is that the "guts" of the system are actually in the tablet, and the system itself is little more than an A/V box that displays the game on the TV. If I'm wrong, and the limitation to one tablet is due to the system not having the horsepower to service multiple tablets... oh boy. That could be problematic. My kids routinely have their little buddies over to play Mario Kart and whatever, and there's already fights about who gets to use the only black Wiimote (please no jokes, enough of that shit in Off Topic this week, heh). I can't imagine the bloodbaths that would ensue about getting to use the tablet.

And yes, they clearly announced this thing far too early. They probably cost themselves some Wii sales by doing that, with no benefit to the company or consumers. Perhaps Nintendo thought that Sony/MS were going to unveil their next systems far sooner than they actually are.

Goddamn...

I've seen some crazy bias/fanboyism on GAF, but this one takes the cake and swallows it whole.

When people cannot create anything of value they prefer to watch other things fail as it lessens the amount of disappointment they carry about themselves.

Ties into the extremely common fallacy of games containing explicit content being "mature," whereas most games with graphic violence and profanity are anything but.

Now that I think about it, isn't 25% of 1,551 random people that play games a very large number? We know next to nothing about software, and we have no idea what type of gamers they questioned, 25% sounds pretty good, for a random poll.
