Yeah, the PS2 has nothing but gems.

All it's ever supposed to mean is that the software won't break your console. It's not a "this got over 60% on GameRankings" seal.

Dude how long has the PS2 been out and why are you comparing this to PS2? Isnt this THEIR next gen console? So let it stand in that arena.

 

[mepaco]

You can't honestly tell me that you are fully satisfied with what nintendo has put out? Yes there are good games on the wii.. I own one I should know. But I'm talking about all the other garbage titles that are out. Once upon a time Nintendo wouldn't release some of these games.

Segata seems to have covered most of what I would have said, but since you asked...

Yeah, I'm fine with the current 1st party lineup and pretty disappointed with the 3rd party games so far. I see 3rd party getting better and Nintendo will keep making games in their traditional franchises. I'm really not sure what people are expecting from Nintendo sometimes. They have always made the same types of games but people seem to expect them to start coming out with ultra-realistic shooters or more violent games which has never really been their focus. That is where 3rd parties need to step it up.

Anyway, this has nothing to do with your original assertion that Nintendo doesn't care about graphics, controls, or storylines and only makes games you have to 'dumb down' to enjoy.

Oh god, it never ends.

Good plan. Let's talk about how shitty the PS3 lineup is right now. The only one not fucking the dog software-wise at the moment is the 360. And they have a year head-start and were able to use some of the money they saved by having their console designed/manufactured by bonobo apes.

Actually, as far as Nintendo's releases, I'm not really that pissed off. It's the overall Wii picture that I'm pissed off about. Nintendo's released what...

Wii Sports
Zelda
Excite Truck
Wii Play
Wario Ware
Mario Party 8
Big Brain Academy
Super Paper Mario
Mario Strikers Charged
Metroid Prime 3

I...think that's the lot. Nothing there is really garbage per se, aside from BBA which suffers from being at the wrong price and Wii Play that fortunately is only $10.

But it is Nintendo's responsibility to ensure there's a good flow of third party stuff coming along too, no matter how much they like to pretend it isn't. In that, they have failed, badly.

Failed at what? I wasn't trying to convince anyone that the wii was garbage. Im just saying theres alot of crap on it. And I said the wii has good games but it has way way more bad games. Its just a console anyways. I'm not gonna get all worked up because some random guy on the internet disagrees with me. I could easily list twice as many games that are terrible and got really low scores to boot. But I wont because I don't care enough to. How about we just agree to disagree.

Okay, but see...my list was the list of everything Nintendo has published for the Wii. And you were talking about how they've put out all this garbage on the Wii. There's nothing you can add to that list because that list is the entire list of games Nintendo has put on the Wii.

But sure, let's agree to disagree, because I'm no longer sure what your point was at all.

Damnit thats what I'm saying just in different words >.< I may have chosen the wrong words but aren't there more third party games then first party games on the wii? Meaning more crap then good?

 

[Segata Sanshiro]

I think you did choose the wrong words. Unfortunately, sometimes choosing the wrong words results in your sentence having an entirely different meaning, which is what I think happened here.

What a load of crap... All Nintendo consoles have had their shovelware. The Seal Of Approval was never a mark of quality.

I was talking about the crappy games... basically 75% of third party games. I never mentioned 1st party. And I never tried to compare it to any other gaming platform.

Yes I'll shut up now.

Um

But I'm talking about all the other garbage titles that are out. Once upon a time Nintendo wouldn't release some of these games.

That appears to be you making a statement about Nintendo, the uh...first party. And the "once upon a time" prelude seems to indicate you talking about Nintendo's prior consoles, which are...other gaming platforms.

Damn McLovin

WHY'D YOU RUN AWAY FROM US

I WAS ONLY TRYING TO GUIDE YOUR COCK

Actually you came in here and said:

Guys I'm not trying to bash the wii or anything but Nintendo's target audience is little kids and old people(really old people). This target audience simply doesn't care about "good graphics" "good controls" or even a "cohesive story line" just dumb yourself down and enjoy the your wiis. Thats what I did :\

and then seemed to be surprised when nobody took you seriously.

 

[McLovin]

umm.. ok last time I checked 3rd party games have to be approved by nintendo.. hence they let it on their system. Second you ever heard of a joke.. thats why it was under a spoiler tag. You guys take this shit way waaaaay to seriously.

Damn McLovin

Running away? :lol :lol :lol :lol

You're thinking of the old Nintendo that let developers release only 5 games every year. This is the new Nintendo that has to take this shit.

The "running away" bit is from the movie your name is from.

And if it was a joke, I apologize for not recognizing it. It's just that usually jokes are funny.

Theres a movie with Mclovin it it? I need to get my lawyer.

You should get on that shit man. They're making mad bank off your mark.

 

[hellclerk]

well, the reason they no longer have the seal of quality is because they were much damned for their tight control of developers. its part of why they lost their throne to sony. the seal only means that the game is licensed. damned if they do or don't i suppose. stupid double standards...

Hey, oh flaming icon of Sega-ity goodness... can I get your Wii system code? I need to be ready when future stuff appears.

Sure, I'll PM it to you later. I don't have it handy as I haven't used it even once yet.

I admire his seemingly endless patience with those who are ... resistant to learning.

 

[Red Scarlet]

what the fuck is that bear on the bottom doing to the pig?

they seem to be enjoying it

There was a bigger version of the cover with more stuff, the bear+pig looks worse. Also note the angry elephant, the lion almost looks like he's kicking the monkey in the balls, and the hippo's hand is going up the warthog's butt. Total awesome. There's a tiger to the right doing something, but I forget. Oh yeah, the rhino's horn is almost in the lion's butt.

Whaa... you haven't purchased Metroid Prime 3 yet?

Edit: Also, I'm not sure if I missed this or not, but... the Animal Soccer game... is there a GAME on that disk, or just a cartoon + coloring book + memory/matching "game"?

Edit 2: Also, Yoshi's Safari is a fun little arcade-y game. I'd love it on the Virtual Console, and/or a silly updated sequel.

 

[Log4Girlz]

Is it just me or is there something wrong with this box-art? And wtf is that skull looking at?

Man, that brings back memories.
