More Wii launch games

[Jumpman]

Zelda and Metroid on launch day...sold here.

Graphics are meaningless.

since when can wii do 1024x768?

it\'s still crummy 480P, no?

Yeah but you said that they look like ass when

1)They are target renderes

2)480p or not isnt enough evidence it looks bad right?

Graphics are meaningless.

I wouldnt go that far...its definitly an important part. I mainly play sports games on consoles and two of the big things i look at are graphics and physics (obviously everyone wants good gameplay). I dont expect toy story graphics or anything, but it has to be good. NHL2k6 is a good game with pretty bad graphics (2k7 looks the same..if not worse), nhl 07 looks like good graphics and is probably a good game...im going with nhl 07.

If graphics arent important, then why pay that much for a new console? might as well get the same game on ps2.

As for the shooters here..red steel looks alright..the ps3 one looks like shit..mainly the way the gun is held (and that a pistol did that to a window hes not pointing at,lol)

I am also sad that Super Mario Galaxy isn\'t a launch title, but Im still gonna get a WII because of the virtual console, Zelda and Smash Bros. Brawl. I can wait as SMG will be out soon.

Sports games are the worst offenders. Just today I dusted off MLB2K6 again. It has nice graphics.

And it absolutely sucks.

Graphics aren\'t worth a damn thing. I\'m not buying a Wii for graphics, and I\'m not buying a PS3 because Sony jacked the price up to allow for nicer graphics.

Take a good game and you have a good game. Add nice graphics on top of that and you have a good game with nice graphics.

But a shiny turd is still a turd.

Graphics are meaningless.

Graphics are meaningless.

Hmmm.. not in every sense of the word.

You\'ll need the \'appropiate graphics\'  to complement gameplay.

What\'s a Splinter Cell game without realtime shadowing/lighting.
You\'ll benefit as a sniper in any mp online wargame from higher
resolution graphics. Better drawdistance and \'sense of speed\'
will make a better racing game, etc.

so why not just release a wii controller for the GC then?
it\'s not like you\'re paying 200-250$ for better graphics, right?

is a goofy controller worth that?

You act as if they are identical in hardware, not only graphics wise. I know you can\'t really be that clueless.

you didn\'t answer the question (as usual)

the step from GC -> wii is nowhere near what sony and microsoft have done

then again, that\'s why you\'re paying a budget price
nintendo small stepping you again.
when\'s the DS-lite 2x color super cute version coming out again?

mm: Just stop. The Wii is going to be worth the $199.

Unfortunately, Nintendo reps have been telling retailers that it\'ll be $249.

I hope not. Big-time error.

define 199$ worth over previous generation, please.
if graphics aren\'t important, why not a wii controller for the GC?

and what happens when someone plugs a wii into a 720P widescreen TV?  yum, black bars.....

feel free to not reply to these questions, LIC.  thanks

VIrtual console.
New CPU.
Wii controller.
The list goes on and on. Is it a HUGE upgrade from the GC graphics wise? No. Is it an upgrade? Yes.


As for the DS comment - last I checked, only new version of the DS is the DS LITE. No one forced anyone to buy that. It\'s no different than when Sony made a "PsTwo".

You\'re the one who dances around questions, not I.

Well, most likely, MM\'s grasps what the Wii platfrom encompasses ;
an established developing platform for new user interface based gaming, the whole virtual console backwards compatibility and last but not least, the new styling.

Of course, his argument is a smart counter argument against those of others who needlessly slam other consoles for having graphics as one of the main selling points.

If \'graphics\' is totally not their console criteria and they keep stressing this point ; then it\'s equally reasonable to question why GameCube + new controller wouldn\'t be a viable option.

It\'s argumenting matter of principle.
