Sorry, but some dude's graph doesn't do it for me. Right now, my Wii still has Zelda in it and I don't see a replacement coming for a while yet.

A drought is a lack of games worth playing, not a sheer lack of games. Call me when the Wii snaps out of it.

What's wrong with Kotaku. They are right. The Wii has much more games than the N64 and GC during the launch period .

SSX games generally score extremely well (*points to Tricky*) and the previews have dished out glowing praise for the control scheme. Next?

The Wii is in a drought right now. None of it's games, besides Zelda interest me. No way can I get amped up for a sonic or snowboarding game.

What's wrong with it being on a Nintendo system? The Wii mote controls are the reason the latest previews are so positive.

It's not hard to be uninterested in a Sonic of SSX game...neither game is anything to get excited about and pay $50 for.

I think more people like these game then what your thinking, and if your talking about the Majority of People here I would agree, but if your talking about majority of people that bought a Wii then you might be wrong because the Wii has games that appeal to them if they bought it just for Wii Sports there are alot of games they like that are out right now.

Don't bother arguing with this guy, he never has anything positive to say about the Wii.

Again, I feel sorry for you. Just because a game doesn't get AAA status doesn't mean you shouldn't play them or look forward to them. You seem to be the type of gamer who won't settle for anything less then really big name games.

No, it wasn't. :| It was hyped high-A, and achieved that, though it deserved a higher score, IMO.
