I know it's not a VR. That was my entire point, is that it's NOT.

And no, for the touch screen, I was talking about, like, the chatroom. #mmpc.

People said what abuot the NES and PlayStation gun? The NES gun only ended up being used for Duck Hunt, and I dind't even know PlayStation HAD a gun. Most accessories that are alternate types of controllers, unless they're simply more advanced or turbo controllers, flop.

That binocular thing just sounds awkward. Like sterring with your head O_O?

I di dnot say the tilt was new, and I meant the pinball games for GBA, not actual machines.

Same thing with the baseball game. I was talking about the systems they sell, which you hook up to the T.V., swing the bat, and play. And I also said those made more sense to have such a function.

The very worst part about the Wii, is the difference between gaming on different systems. One thing about the industry I could not stand, is the way each game released over multiple systems is altered without being re-released. So even if you already have a copy of the game, in most cases there is SOMETHING changed so you still don't feel like you have every game in a particular series, for example, and then you have to waste money on another copy of the SAME game just because the developers wnated to chnage something for the system. That problem will be a lot wors with the Wii around, because they cannot design games in quite the same way for regular systems.

Once again, that is exactly what I said. So far you have not said anything against me other then the fact that you like the idea of the Wii. I am an "avid gamer," yet even I do not like the "innovation" of the system. Only EXTREME gamers will be intrested. If you've never played an MMO FPS, you probably won't be intrested in the Wii. I have yet to find a single person IRL, besides the two I know that go here, that likes the idea of the Wii. And that doesn't just include people from Alabama... as a matter of fact it includes a couple of avid gamers too, such as FishBowL and Brandom from my college. So, regardless of what you or I think of the system, that is why I think it will not do well.

And yeah, Nintendo's done better... only because they make easier games that are not childish (Mario and Zelda, for example, compared to all the FPS/military games on Sony).

You forgot to mention Hogan's Alley, which also relied on the Zapper.




That just goes to show how different people have different contacts with different interests. I know a few people who happen to think that this is a great move from Nintendo, and I'm not talking about Internet contacts alone. In fact, I don't know anyone who says that this is a BAD idea. Most people just don't really care.

What I mant by MMO FPSs, is that only extremely avid gamers usually play them.

And Hogan's Alley... was that game widely used? Was not saying it was not compatible... was talking more about actual usage.

I've seen plenty of copies around, and Nintendo made several references to that title in the WarioWare games and others, so I'd guess that it was pretty widely known about, yes. I've played it personally back when the NES was still the hot item to have.

Well I really just had no idea if that game was popular or not.

And Phat, you almost prove my point... only a heavy gamer would even think about those things!

I think maybe it should be optional... have a regular controller and then the Wii controller, so the people can set an option of which style they'd prefer... except of course on games that can only work with the new style.

The thing is, the console will probably reach that price eventually, but that won't be more than a few months before the Playstation 4 is set to be released. The components inside will keep the price high for a long time.
