I dunno, all systems have flaws.

I don't think PS3 deserves most of the bashing it gets, but it definitely should be cheaper (or people should just wait like me).

Well actually the Wii got Warioware in January, but I see your point. You can't really judge either consoles games though as it has been what 5 months?

I guess it's just amazing that the PS1 and PS2 were both great, but the PS3 is being dominated completely by the Xbox 360. People expected it to be doing better than the feeble attempt Sony has shown thus far.

lol yeah, well some of the people in the Wii boards are in denial. I posted a thread about whether or not Super Paper Mario would end the drought, and everyone was like, "Oh we're already satisfied." I just can't pull myself to believe this is true. The Wii does have a few great titles right now, but they don't seem to think about what games are coming in the future. I've been giving the games the benefit of the doubt because developers recieved dev kits in October, and they probably thought the Wii would crash and burn like the Gamecube, but I think if Super Paper Mario doesn't deliver all it's hyped up to be, then I may not purchase a game until July or August, and I'm not one to go by any game reviews.

i believe plain and simple its the price thats driving people so forcefully against it, if anything, the ps2 had a drought till MGS2/DMC/FF10/and GTA3 came out, so its definately not the games id say.

So a game has to score above 8 before its considered good? That's kinda foolish...every console could have a drought if you're looking for one..which i can tell you are.

Most lemmings bash the PS3 because they can't afford one. I bet if you did a poll(not trying to flame) anyone but I bet most lemmings here are under the age of 16.

You know, I could never descend into the undue scrutiny and bashing that surrounds PSP and PS3 for one reason and one reason only...Sony first and second parties.

They consistently deliver games that interest me across a wide spectrum of genres, it doesn't matter that they are all on Sony platforms (SCE Online notwithstanding) because they are honestly among my favorite developers..period.

Naughty Dog
Insomniac
Psygnosis (Studio Liverpool)
Level-5
Team Ico
SCEA Santa Monica

All of these groups and more consistently intrigue me with their projects and wow me with their work.

dont get your panties in a bunch.  Excuse me for not caring about games for a console I own.  Its not my fault...What I said initially IS true and theres really no denying it.  The Wii has had one game since NOVEMBER....and will continue to be that one game until April 9th. Heaven forbid someone speak truthfully about something here instead of just always praising something they own.  Nintendo has always sucked with game droughts, people denied the Wii would have these problems, and it already is.

I saw a thread that ask people age. Most ages I saw was 17-21. being that this board is mostly lemmings. You can assume that most lemmings here are between the ages 17-21. Most 17-21 year old don't have the money to buy a $600 console.

so that allows the Wii to have a game drought? this is hilarious....this post + the one above this pointing out price to divert from the actual subject....Apparently its okay for these Wii games to suck because the system is only $250. pft

The point is people are obviously finding something to like about these "crappy" Wii games you speak of, otherwise the Wii wouldn't be spanking every other console in sales.

Wow, the OP is right. I kinda just realized this, but I think people should start focus firing the Wii. I am really for the innovative controller, but not with a bunch of RETARDED and ANNOYING mini-games. Where are the full games with an actual story, great music and gameplay?

I swear that's why I dropped my Nintendo DS. It just got way too gimmicky. Wii has mini-games and the DS has a second screen that doesn't need to be touched at all for a lot of its games. The second screen just serves as a freakin' map. Whoopdee doo. I'm getting tired of Nintendo getting by just 'cause it's 250. The only games I'm going to get for it are Godzilla and Super Smash Brothers Brawl. After that? Gaming drought. I'm kind of sick of Mario too.

or maybe they play it at a friends...say hey this is spiffy and buy one...thats where the Wii gets its marketing from. Initial wowness factor of something different in consoles....im sure many people that own one TODAY dont play it half as much as they did in decemberÂ
