BTW, I know I start these whole eternal Wii debate things every now again with my uber bitching. But we've gone over it again and again and we hardly every agree on anything or have any resolution so anything I say will be stuff I've said already and I can't be bothered to go through it guys.

Keep the discussion going though

 I think we finally reached a resolution about the Wii debate. Now it's the 360/PS3/PC turn.

I'll have a copy and yes we will play and snicker when we think about how Geek is too busy molesting rodents to play this or whatever it is that he does.

What I choose to do with Raven in the privacy of my own home is no business of yours.

I didn't answer the question cause you are trying to change the subject. Yes by going the cheap route they became kings. So in a way its a trap, if they were just like the other consoles they wouldn't be first place or at least not as far in the lead as they are now. But because they changed they created a barrier for the average third party game.

No, I kept asking questions, to come to an conclusion that you seem to share. If Nintendo went the more powerful route they could have ended with being a Gamecube sales wise and they still would not have the major 3rd party support. So saying that it's Nintendo's fault why they are not getting 3rd party support is not really fair, because making a more powerful console would not guaranteed bigger 3rd party support. Nintendo has to do what's best for them and they did, nothing more nothing less. They are in a dammed if you do and dammed if you don't situation there. Having a Wii that is poweful as 360 and selling as much as the Wii is currently, is basically a pipe dream.

The good thing is that the Wii gets its own set of games, which is awesome for me cause I have my HD system that gets a certain group of games and my Wii that gets another. The issue is some Wii only owners want to have it all, those are the people I am talking about. The ones wondering why RE5 or SF4 or Mirror's Edge or Fallout 3 (any third party HD game) are not on  the Wii.  They got to understand that this is what happens when you go the cheap hardware route, they were going to lose a ton of those games. Nintendo seems fine with it, they are rolling in money. It seems like people want the wii regardless of it missing out of those third party games.

That is awesome for everbody, having 3 consoles with a similar library is not good. The problem is not that those games do not come out on the Wii, the problem is that most 3 parties have nothing else on the Wii or something crappy. If Capcom kept releasing games like Zack and Wiki no one would complain. Check out Square, they are making Dragon Quest X and Crystal Beares while the HD consoles have FFXIII. I am not complaining there, no one is. But games like Dead Rising Chop till you fuck up? Now there's a problem. Having less powerful hardware is no excuse for being lazy. That shit did not fly for the DS or the Gamecube , so it shall not fly for the Wii either.

But the fact that big western 3rd party as not touching the Wii is not really surprising. If you try to disrupt the industry you will also disrupt the developers. But in bad news there is also some good news. The fact that the big 3rd party are ignoring the Wii, the smaller one are picking up the slack. THQ with de Blob and Deadly Creature, Platinum with Madworld, Marvelous with Arc Rise Fantasy and Little King's Story, High Voltage with Conduit. So these small companies might grow and become big companies in the future, again this is good news. And games like No More Heroes have to sell as little as 300k to get a sequel. Again good news.

You are 100% correct.

All I was referring to was that quote for some neogaf dude that sounded like he was complaing about why the major third party games were not also coming out on the Wii.

Yes, the Wii should be getting way better third party support, there is no excuse.

So there is online play? Nice. Wonder how it will work if someone uses motion controls. There would be the slight delay from motion, plus online lag too.

 Who the fuck started the online rumour? I heard nothing of online play!
