Mario Galaxy Video Review

Looks cool, not sure I\'d buy a Wii just for that though.

I have it. It\'s worth the Wii purchase.

But... it\'s just a fat Italian plumber running around... but it\'s getting super reviews so I guess there\'s something to it.

Wow it looks fantastic, and I would love to play this game, but I still do not think it\'s worth a console purchase,  when Wii actually builds a decent library only then would I buy a unit.

This is really tempting me to get a wii. With mario, metroid, zelda, SSB, and GH, I\'d be set.

Skip zelda, just borrow it from someone who likely didn\'t finish it.

I was at the mall today shoping for presents and low and behold I strolled past EB. All I could think of was snatching a console just to play Mario. I wonder maybe it\'s becuase Mario for many of us represents joyful memories in our childhood, that and Nintendo usually does a fantastic job at the mario series.

The Wii has a respectable library now, as long as you don\'t like RPGs.

Other than Zelda what does the wii have that is interesting?

I see people mostly playing wii sports with the thing

I suppose Mario Galaxy is it.

Right now, looks like Sony\'s claim that the Wii is just a gimmick might be true. Too many 3rd Party devs are reluctant to make games for the Wii. Reminds me of N64 when it first came out.

Eh? Gimmick?  It\'s already proven to be more than a gimmick.

Sales = King.

Well in most cases it seems that way.

I mean, personally, I\'ve found more enjoyable games for the Wii than for the PS3, and both came out at the same time, if that says anything.  

I\'m enjoying Galaxy so far.  Also excited to pick up Nights: Journey of Dreams in a couple weeks.  I loved the Saturn version, and if this is anywhere near as good, it\'ll be a worthy purchase to me.

Anybody that still thinks the Wii is a gimmick does not own one.

Wii is still the absolute worst name for the console.  I seriously think it would sell many more if it had a better name, and no I\'m not being sarcastic.  Whenever I think of "Wii" I think of it as a toy and not a serious gaming system, and a $250 toy is spensive to me.
