Wii news/rumours

Post by Caydr »

@Megagames.com:

So let us examine the rumors, at their basis lies a recent Nintendo comment hinting that hardcore gamers should pay special attention to the remaining Wii secrets as they will be the target audience for them. The story suggests that Nintendo will host a Space World Event in August 2006 in order to reveal the final secrets of the Wii. During the event the company will announce an additional 13 games for the console including a Miyamoto title, a spy title from Zoonami, apparently rated AO, MGS 4: Guns of the Patriots and
a Deus Ex title
a Deus Ex title
a Deus Ex title
a Deus Ex title
a Deus Ex title
a Deus Ex title
a Deus Ex title
a Deus Ex title
a Deus Ex title from THQ.

I want to belive. I want to believe... I want to believe....

If this turns out true I'm going wii for my first nextgen console. MGS and FF are the biggest reason I lean towards sony, and if MGS is going to be on the nintendo then that's enough sway for me.

Plus I really really want to see more cool shooters using the wiimote. It has alot of promise as a gameplay dealio.

Exactly. I have a friend who's an MGS freak and collects everything that he possibly he can. And he's gonna be pissed if MGS4 isn't PS3 exclusive.

I'm still not sure about the Wii. It sounds kind of gimmicky, or something. I see two possible outcomes:

1) Its so horribly bad its erased from Nintendo's records for all time, and expunged from human history with a completeness unrivaled by any and all electronic devices.

2)Its teh best thing ever, and you all berate me on how dumb I am.

Option two would be nice for all of you, but option one would mean less beatings for me.

Virutal boy was a flop mostly because:
wikipedi! wrote: To fill in for the long delay in the development of the Nintendo 64, it was pushed to market before it was ready. Not only was it rushed out the door, but the public was unwilling to spend so much money on what they saw as a stopgap videogame system, especially knowing the Nintendo 64 was coming shortly.

Have any of you actually played a Virtual Boy? The list of consoles worse than it is far longer than that of those better.

I'm going Wii next generation as well. I'm a big console gamer, with a rather large variety... so I'll probably get two of them given enough time.

I need a Sega Saturn. I have games and a controller, but no console!

I own a VB and I have like 7 games for it, that's like half of the ones ever made... yeah... I think marketting was all wrong... and the whole "it hurts to play for more the 20 minutes at a sitting" thing didn't help... but I loved 3D enough to look by it's major imperfections.

This could never have been expected. It looks like the wii is so popular that it's shifting third party support towards itself before it's even released. Where an overpriced launch cost hurting shorterm sales probably wasn't a huge thorn in sony's side, this definately is. I wonder if they are paying off square right now... A Kingdom Hearts or Breath of Fire style game would own on the wii...
