Heh, why do Wii threads get derailed.  Go flame each other in the Tekken thread.

default, perhaps someday "the point at hand" and you will make acquaintances.
you may even become friends.
:laughing: hey man people seem interested. Some will be laughing at you if it doesnt tank. So dont say such things. Just wait. It has potential. Dont be so negative.

Even you might like it at the end ;)

i\'m a realist, by nature

"people seem interested" and "people buying one" are two completely different animals.  most console buyers will test play them in the store before buying one.  only the hardcore and foolish gamers will be lined up overnight at bestbuy to get one.

like i said, joe blow gamer will go into the store, see the wii kiosk and walk right past it.

mm by the same token how many people who don\'t follow games are doing to walk into a store and pay 600$ for something they don\'t really know that much about?

I agree that casual gamers may not be drawn to the Wii at first, but I also think most people will be pushed away by the PS3\'s price, and settle for the Wii.

Wii will do well with the young age groups, nintendo fanboys, and Playstation fans who don\'t have 600$ at launch.

Sony fans are more willing to go along with a cheap nintendo system untill they can afford PS3 then a less cheap xbox system.

PS3 will do great with the most serious gamers who have a lot of money because I think it is the most powerful and also has the most room for improvement as things move a long.... But in terms of growth, Nintendo will have the best results, PS3 will beat xbox but PS3 will still be a "failure" compared to PS1 and PS2.

 Well people are initially interested then they buy one. :)

 Just wait man. The average Joe might like it who knows? The average Joe kid will certaintly love this. Not to mention many that will also buy a Wii and a PS3/360.

 Wii may come third but it doesnt necessarilly mean it will flop

it has PS3 stamped on the side of the box, that\'s more than enough for the average gamer.

10\'s of millions are going to buy it for a blu-ray player alone.  throw in franchises like MGS, GT, FF, etc and it\'s a windfall.

mm, would you wait before you stink up my thread?
 
Regardless of your opinion, and you\'re entitled to it, I\'m more psyched to try this Tennis game or Red Steel or Zelda than I am MGS4, VF5 or FF13.
 
Hi-def graphics aside, Nintendo is creating exactly what I want.
 
That Sony is trying to rip off Nintendo\'s Wii controller has me a little bit more excited in that system, but knowing developers aren\'t taking advantage of it yet has me less excited.
 
What\'s worse, I know lazy developers can even make impressive graphics seem uninspired (Fight Night Round 3).
 
I\'m ready for Nintendo\'s next console.

It\'s impossible, Eik. He will never accept that somenoe could prefer it over the PS3. Just like he won\'t accept that game wise, the DS is a superior system..

-shrugs-

I have my concerns about the Wii, but I am ten times more excited about it then the other two systems. I\'ll be goin\' to pre-order it this weekend.

obviously, you\'re not talking about me.

i gave my thoughts on the DS vs PSP argument on many occasions, today included.  check again.

my only concern about the wii is the damned hokey controller.
if i can play every single 1st party title with a normal type controller, then i\'m getting one.
i refuse to wave the thing in the air like a retard when a normal controller has worked perfectly for 30 years.

Hm,  Im having second thoughts about waving around a controller..I like to play games after a hard day of work,  and I dont know if I want to be standing up waving around a controller...I\'d rather be laying back...pushing some buttons.  and NO I\'M NOT FAT. lol  seriously,  I wonder how much fatigue may play a part in sports game on the Wii.  It\'s nice to jump around and wave your arms at a party or gathering,  but causual gaming?...maybe not
