[calichris]

seems like a pretty shity list

[Rs0n1sT]

werd.. its deff. not for me

[eatpooz]

I dont understand how anyone over the age of 12 can like the Wii? Sure its fun for a while when your drunk playing with your friends. but otherwise the shits mad lame and same with that list

[Kunnin']

They aren't doing much to kill the childish tag that comes with the Wii.

[illanon00]

That childish shit everyone talks about is easily overshadowed by the best titles ever to hit any system. The metroid series. The Zelda series. Smash Bros. Double Dash. Star Fox. They have longevity and consistently get better each and every time sequels are released.

[Bathing Ape]

That's not the entire lineup of 2008, it's for the first 6 months

And who cares if the console has a kiddish tag fuck, just play the games

Zelda is over-rated imo. Not very good, plus its already out on the Wii

Smash Bros, not really into it.

Mario Kart fell off since Mario Kart 64

Star Fox... dont like it.

Nintendo rely on old franchises, they need new ones like Sony got Resistance Fall Of Man as their flagship title.


n yeah, that list was mad childish. Mature gamers get a PS3 or 360

[Grahf16]

No.

REAL GAMERS get a PS3/360.

Those old franchises will still dominate and are still considered milestones in gaming.

Sony and Microsoft have shit for franchises. The only company that could even compete with Nintendo in terms of classic franchises was Sega.

Sony doesnt have a flagship title, it has variaty.

But on topic, nintendo dont give a shit about mature games, so i would give a fuck about them.

Sony + Microsoft FTW.
