The Wii is really cool. I haven't been too interested in video games since Defender/Stargate but my understanding is that the 'big boys' have the hardware and gruesome games while Nintendo has the gameplay. The Wii gameplay is *really* innovative and I think until you've actually used it it's hard to grasp how cool it is. Also:
- it makes gaming more of a group activity rather than an isolating one. Watching someone play a video game is usually boring as hell but watching someone play the Wii is pretty entertaining.
- little kids can play some of the games (like boxing or bowling). No, I don't park the 4 year old in front of the tube or game console but it's really cool that she can participate with her big brothers occasionally.
Funny comment I read about Nintendos lack of hardware greatness. This guy (for real) always disassembles the latest consoles to check out the hardware. When he cracked the Wii open he found a gamecube

I'm spectical because I used to buy Nitendo. Then they started recycling the same games over and over. They then took all blood and voilence out of the games and I was done.Comment

spectical??
I don't care if there is blood or violence, so long as playing the damn thing is fun. and re: recycling games, how many times has doom been copied? 2 dozen?To be a professional means that you don't die. - Takeru "the Tsunami" KobayashiComment

I think Domm is on 3 or 4. however nowhere near the number of times Mario has been recycled. I would say he has to be in over 50 Nitendo games. And Zelda the same. A couple of sequels are great but Nitendo takes it alittle far.Originally posted by SeattleLionsFan View Post
Also I don't care if the game has blood and violence, but on games such as Resident Evil when they remove the blood that is part of the game, it is alittle ridiculious.Comment

Mario is a character in many games, they aren't the same game however.
Doom has been recycled with the same game but with different characters 100 times or more. Doom, Resident Evil, Wolfenstein, Halo, Half-life....
I don't know that there is a difference in any first person shooter ever...To be a professional means that you don't die. - Takeru "the Tsunami" KobayashiComment

I love Halo ... I don't like getting punked by a bunch of 10 year olds however on xbox live. Damn some of those kids are gooooood.Forever One!Comment

resident Evil isn't a first person shooter. I thinnk they had one version that was, but all the others are not. Halo is, but it is alot different then Doom. Never played the others.Originally posted by SeattleLionsFan View PostComment

Well under that broad umbrella almost every game is the same. You could even put most Mario games in that catagory.
Doom and Halo are both first person perspectives. Resident evil is not. Futhermore you solve much more puzzles in rsident evil then Halo or Doom.Comment

Mario Cart and Super Mario brothers are not nearly the same...To be a professional means that you don't die. - Takeru "the Tsunami" KobayashiComment

A wee bit off subject, but still a technology & geek thing....
Leti picked up 2 huge bags of free toys today. As she's going through them, she finds a vtech (like a psp for smaller kids) with 2 games in it in like new condition. The vtech itself is about $80 new and the games are about $20 each new, so she was pretty damn happy.
When she gets through sorting out all of the toys, she'll clean them up/wash them and we'll donate most of them to a local charity.Comment
