I like how you set up your argument and supported each topic with very well detailed opinions. If I were a teacher and this were a paper you would have gotten an A. Anyways to the topic, yes whole heartedly agree with you.lzorro

I pretty much agree with everything you said there. But the thing is, Nintendo think they are doing something to sell more systems/games, but really, they are driving people away. It seems that they care more about creating new gamers then satisfying the fans who have been around for 25 years. In the long run, it is the long time fans who will continue to support the system and it's games, not the grandparents who play wiisports once or twice at christmas. This is where nintendo is making a mistake, and they really need to concentrate on their long-time fans.

I read that whole thing, which is a quite a feat for one such as myself. But, I wholeheartedly agree. I really think Nintendo's got a good marketing scheme, bringing fun back to video games.LOLhahaDEAD

Mate, im sorry but the wii NEEDS online. You can only play the single player campaign on a game so many times before you can almost play it with your eyes closed (Not literally of coarse, as a figure of speech). Its not as if i have my mates come over every day of the week to play multiplayer anyway. I would rather be able to finish my study for the night and turn on my wii and play some good competitive online gaming for an hour than replay a single player campaign once again.

If you look at Mario strikers for instance, the whole online mode has lost its fun i think anyway. You get points for LOSING. I can see where Nintendo is coming from to assist non-gamers and so on, but i mean, come on.

Im not saying every game that is released for a the system NEEDS online but games like Metroid 3, is crying for it. I dont care if people say ''but teh signle player'', its needs it. Why cant developer's make a good game inboth aspects. After a good 25 hour single player adventure, you can play online for many months to come, in stead of having to buy a game every three to five weeks because you have passed the single player already.

It'S good that we talk about Nintendo and their games, but what about third parties? They may be the ones that will pull out the hardcore games. I jus got POP Rival sword (nerver played a POP games before) and I must say that I have a blast with it. They managed to pull out controls that are simple and responsive. It has everything form platformer to combat. Action and some kind of puzzles.

That's just one game and it's a port. Great third parties games are coming (Square Enix games for example). The future of the wii, like the DS, will be told with the help of 2nd and third parties companies.
