2 days before release hype will come out of nowhere about a big Nintendo announcement... 1 day before release hype about a MEGATON will come out... E3 will be about how great Wii and DS goes blah blah Each and every year!

I am no fun of Pokemon but if it goes MMO and turns good i am there. Though i can't see that happening without HDD and with an online service based on Friend codes.

Well as awesome as Wii Fit is when i do Hula Hoop i feel kinda stupid...

I agree with dazzy. I bought all three consoles because i see it like this: First and most i am a Nintendo fan boy but secondly i am a gamer and i don't want to miss games like GTA, MGS4, LittleBigPlanet, Halo, Fable II etc. But i keep finding myself playing the Wii. First i thought "ok Wii has too many party games and i have my friends here and we have our fun". But you know what? 14 days from now i'll buy GTA for either PS3 or 360 (i don't know yet) but something tells me that in 3 weeks i'll be playing Twillight Princess and i will trying to finish it for the 7th time!!! Not because i won't like GTA.. But because Nintendo has something in their games that keeps me to go back. Call me what you want but i would play Wii Sports 4 players from GTA any time!

To be honest i don't really care about Wii Fit. Unless not until a game come out supporting it. But i have to admit it's really catchy as a project. All the non gamers i know are, at least want to know "what the hell this thing is" plus the girls are already convinced. Mine actually has already decided to buy it so i will have it anyway! Nintendo has an awesome strategy on this one and if they support it with more games/mini games etc this thing will be a gigantic success!

What Nintendo did with Wii is to make it something like iPod. Make people that never cared about games not only talk about it but actually buying it. The coming year is very crucial for Nintendo because it has some things to consider and some things to prove. 1. Nintendo already won the "casual" and "non-gamer" market. Neither Microsoft nor Sony can compete with Nintendo on this area. 2. With continue games like Brain Training and peripherals like Wii Fit Board, Nintendo makes sure that "she" keeps that market. [Example. I was gonna wait before buy the Board to see if Nintendo or third parties will use it in other ways exept Yoga and Mini Games but the "casual" gamer girlfriend of mine was very ...persuative about buying it] 3. For at least 6 months Wii has enough games to keep the "core" gamers sutisfied with more announsing often. What Nintendo need to do? 1. Give developers more freedom. Make connections with the third parties. You are about to become the leader in the console race. Everyone will want a piece of the pie. Open the doors and let them in. 2. Give the developers tools for online gaming. Cut the crap about our safety. All theses years on XBox and on 360 i never had a privacy problem. I never heard a privacy problem and i am always online. Like it or not people wants online. GIVE IT TO THEM. 3. Add Hard Disk Drive support. Wii was the only console that was out of the box online. Ad an HDD support and let us take advantage of it. 4. "Make" the Indepentend developers to use the Wii Ware channel. I played Super Metroid a trillion times (yes its SUPER AWESOME) but i would die to see a 2D side scroller adventure/shooter/whatever with 2007 graphics from an indie and if it were good i would gladly pay it (to download it to my HDD...). 5. "Demo Channel / Coming Soon Channel / Preview Channel" or whatever you wanna call it. Most of the people nowdays have fast connections. I have no idea what this Zack and Wiki. Sure i saw a couple of videos and some pictures on IGN but wasn't enough to make me give €59. But what if it is a great game and i won't buy it? What if i buy it and SUCKS? Why can't download a demo and check it before i buy it? 360 has it this service. PS3 has this service. I refuse to believe that Nintendo does not give a shit about this. Anyway that all i can think for now. I think these are the most important though. Sorry for the long text i just wanted to write them. Don't take them as complaints.

Since there aren't yet any serious games out on the Wii it goes like this for me: When i am alone i play 360 (offline or online). When i am with my girlfriend/family/friends i play with the Wii.

I waited for this time for so long. When Nintendo "ruled" the video games world with S.N.E.S. everyone was a fan. When the Playstation strike i waited, the Playstation generation laughed at me and my old cartridges but i waited. The GameCube era was the kiddy era with the purple little cube. When all the Nintendo "fans" swithed to PS2 i had 69 GameCube games. And i waited for the day the "Queen" will return to her throne. I am a Nintendo-raised fanboy and i don't care if you judge me. Nintendo is in first place (actually i think its not vgcharts are not 100% reliable so until i see official confirmation i won't believe it) and if she play her cards right she will stay there. Nintendo has the Casual gamers and has games for the core gamers (Galaxy, Metroid, SSBB etc). With with selling like crazy third parties will come onboard. Who expected Rockstar developing for Nintendo? I mean hell even Konami announced PES instead of a crappy Disney Soccer.

There is a particular person here that actually said Metroid Prime and Soul Calibur II in the same post.... THE SAME PERSON!!! MY GOD THE HUMANITY!

Why are you complain? The trailer was Sadness. The game is real and it will be released in Wii 2 in FULL HD!!
