living: Dude, you're 16. I keep bringing this up because you're trying to pass thoughts like a 30 year old but don't have the background to do it. I mean, you already made false assumptions that you actually believe to be true.

ChrisD: I did not mention gore. If you can't see why it's not an adult game, that doesn't mean you can determine why I don't think so. As for good games...

Super Mario 64 was spectacular. Super Mario Kart on the SNES was spectacular (actually most of the Nintendo titles on the SNES were spectacular) Zelda on the SNES was awesome. In fact, the SNES was sort of the last kickass system Nintendo made. That's why it held its ground.

Mario kart since the SNES has been dissapointing because it didn't really present any new ideas that surpassed the first one. Zelda should never have been taken out of the 2D realm. I'm sort of merging the 64 and Gamecube because I didn't really like the 64 either (that was the start of Sony's ass whooping).

There are a bunch of games on PS2 I liked... don't really remember the names because I don't play console too much. But in our house we have an NES, Sega Master, Atari, Neo Geo, Turbo Grafix, Dreamcast, N64, Gamecube, Playstation 2, Genesis, SNES and some other stuff.

SNES is pretty much the best system there. Playstation 2 is probably second.

And again, no matter what, sales talk. Nintendo has been at the bottom of the pile for years now. This is why they are trying something new.

allrite decius i respect you that you give us some titles that you enjoy.

But saying you disslike n64.... thats just down-right crazy

But staying on topic, you listed a bunch of systems that you own and like, and the wii will feture cheap (not 70 bucks a game like ps3) downloadable content for almost all those games/systems you mentoned. Yes Turbo Grafix, and sega platforms are on the list. (I know what turbo Grafix is, yes) This makes me currious.

Why do you favor the ps3, when you seem to disslike modern games? the wii is all about bring back the past with a twist, and all ps3 is, is a box with better graphics. Same game concepts, etc...

now, just because im 16 doesn't give me any reason why im not aloud to express myself. I type/say what i think, and its purely oppion, im not trying to piss anyone off.

As in false assumptions, you still haven't given me any links. Show me some statistics or somthin buddy

All the facts except the sales junk ive typed has been correct. And once again, im not looking for sales statistics when it comes to video games, im lookin for a good time with my buddies.

and btw, your not 30 either rofl

keep your facts stright; do you or do you not have a ps2? (see post 1 and post recent by Decius)

SNES did kick ass. Im assumeing you like gameboy advance?

i like your input. my aim sn is haha1456, if you wana talk more just messege me sometime

Zelda: Ocarina of Time and Zelda: Majoro's Mask both kicked ass. Screw you for saying Zelda should have stayed 2D. You didn't name any games you liked on any Sony consoles, which side are you fighting for again?

I'm not fighting for any side. I'm gonna buy the Wii on Sunday. I'm pointing out that Nintendo royally fucked up by catering to kiddies rather than adults. I also think that Sony is going to lose to Xbox because they do not have enough ingenuity and are living off the great success of the first Playstation.

I also said that I do not own a PS2 or a PS. That does not mean anyone else in my family doesn't.

My point about Nintendo is mainly this: They had very sellable and wicked IPOs in Zelda, Mario Cart, and Super Mario brothers and just took it all the wrong way. They are catering to little kids and the anime market without addressing the needs of adults.

This is why the Wii looks like it is a winner... if they can integrate physical movements into their gameplay, they can provide true simulation... this will appeal to everyone.

You can download Turbografix games for the Wii? Provide a link for that... I find that seriously hard to believe.

Oh, alright. I understand your point about the GC then. It seemed before like you were bashing on the few great games that they did have. You are right though, they didn't cater to adults like they should have, they certainly delivered to kids. If they create a balance, they could possibly restore their title as THE gaming system.

Dude Dcius

SEND ME LINKS TO PROVE THE SALES STUFF

please! i would like to see some proff

and btw your tellin me that im young and you still live in your house when your 26!?! wtf grow up

and the turbografix games are on that same link that i gave you... try ign or 1up.com for more info

and, to nail ps3's coffin shut, the ps3 won't be able to play most ps2 games, due to a faital glitch. So you can kiss ps2 games goodbye and say hello to 70 blue disk games that are almost sure to fail.

Decius.... zelda in 3d is amazing. I dont know about everyone else but i think the 3d zelda games are some of the best ones around. Everyone get's tiried of the same ol 2d stuff. They mixed it up with wonderfull results.

And what about posting mulitpul posts?

soooo you say your getting a wii.... What happend to your first few posts? and to bet, your even getting it the day it comes out...

make up your mind.

Go do your own research. And are you mental? I never said the Wii sucks, nor did I say Nintendo sucks. I never said I still live at home (And even if I do, go fuck yourself)

You're an idiot! Stop playing video games and grow a brain!
