I agree with Arctic. Its subjective, but for the most part the 360 and PS3 are more critically acclaimed if not as commercially successful as the Wii.

Blame Nintendo?

They should have designed the Wii to make sure that fanboy's would notice it more?

Well, it's currently winning on the business front, it's had a GOTY, and it's exclusives this year have arguably been better than those of the PS3 and 360.

Well, as someone once said. The only thing directly comparable about a video game is graphics. That's why every thread here is about graphics. Obviously, the Wii's graphics are worse, that's why it's not talked about a lot.

Not arguing that games like Halo, CoD, etc. are bad because they sell well, but most wii games that sell well aren't marketed to gamers at all. they're marketed to casuals. Sheep can deny it all they want, but the wii is a casual's console.

I can't game on my PC. But anyway, I'm not saying the wii is bad or anything, I enjoy mine, just that it doesn't excel in many aspects beyond the competition. I think it does have a more varied library though.

Sales, it beats every other system but the PS3 in exclusive GOTY's, and it doesn't break.

The only reason you don't care is because you're either a PS3 or XBox 360 fanboy and the Wii is kick both of those systems butts.

The 50+ million people who own a Wii aren't ingorant to the system.

Who cares? Is that something that is on your mind when you game or go and purchase games? People say this like it inherently matters, it really doesn't. As far as most Wii games being marketed to casuals I don't really see the problem with this either. They are not educated on gaming, they aren't going to know or care unless they are informed. Does it really matter if a game not targeted to you sells well?

Honestly, do you think the head honchos at Nintendo headquarters thinks about what a bunch of teenage and adolescent gamers on a gaming forum think? They are rolling in $$$ and that is all that matters.

Put a tape record near the tree and you can find out. lol!! That's like asking, "If you put a thief in a room with a million dollar diamond on a stand at night, with a wide open door, will the diamond still be there in the morning? lol!!

I asked this in my philosophy class, and my professor's response was, "How do you know the tape isn't blank until you listen to it?"

Just because some one may not like the same things as you doesnt mean they are ignorant. Most people on this site are well aware of what the Wii has to offer, as well as the the other current consoles/systems.

I agree with Arctic. Its subjective, but for the most part the 360 and PS3 are more critically acclaimed if not as commercially successful as the Wii.

where do you get your info from O,o

last time i checked the wii had the most exclusives even if i only count A-AAAA its still wins

best rated game this gen (mario galaxy)

Let them play games, but the kind of games they're going to like are not going to be the kind of games that win awards.
