Nintendo Profits Down

[djsnoflake]

Here's what happens when the best game you have for your console was one that came out at launch and was also on Gamecube (Zelda)

Basically, they are doing the usual Nintendo strategy of releasing 1 good game every 3 years and even the casual gamers are catching on.

I bought a Wii cause I thought there would be some sweet hardcore gamer/ old school gamer ressurections. Instead it has literally sat on my TV stand, not turned on for at least a year. The last game I bought was a Strong Bad game off of Wii Ware

i used to want one of those real bad when they were impossible to get and now the only games i play one friends consoles are wii sports and the downloaded original marios, everyone i know that has one just collects dust, id give someone 50 bucks for theirs but thats about it

Had a Wii.. just a gimick. Bro has it now for frat parties. Just gathers dust now.

TLDR; nothing of value was lost. Just waiting for Zelda to go third party..

PS3/X360 FTW.

360 ftw!

I have a Wii but I come to realize that there's way too much crapware for the system. Not enough good *SOLID* games for it. The New Super Mario Bros. will definitely help the system sales-wise. But they gotta start cranking out more good games more often then like 2 a year. I definitely use my Xbox 360 waaaay more than the Wii. PS3 IMHO is complete garbage, alot of people were buying it for the Blu-ray compatibility but prices are dropping for Blu-ray, just wait and see this holiday season. They just need to drop prices on the movies, especially older titles...

Hmm..I've never had a single issue with my PS3. I have two that I bought at launch. I've had six Xbox360's repaired. SIX!! Even "Elite" and Halo editions. I'd have to disagree with you.

PS3 has:

Resistance
Heavenly Sword
Little Big Planet
Killzone
Uncharted 1 & 2
Metal Gear
God of War
Gran Turismo
Tekken



Xbox360 has:

Halo

I haven't fired on my Xbox360's in over a year.

But yeah, back to the topic. The Wii is like a blender. I think everybody should have one, but they're only used at partys.

Super smash and the metroid series being the few of note for me.

Other than that meh.

I agree on the Wii, it's a disappointment. Mario Karts is about the only thing that gets played these days and that's rare.

It's a good battle for exclusives, which one you like sort of depends on your playstyle. Mass Effect, Gears of War and L4Dead are almost enough on their own to justify a 360. Mines 2 years old with -0- problems. Not a knock to the PS3 though, I didn't like them at first- but I think the new slim is a good value.

I like Spyro for the wii...please dont think im gay...

Heavenly Sword was a sweet Demo...........

Even the full game felt like a demo.

But I may buy a PS3 for God of War 3 alone. Oh and Heavy Rain looks sweet.
