They should have simply said "Our shit was losing steam, and we were only $50 cheaper than the competition, and we were about to get our asses handed to us by a 1-2 punch of more competitive priced consoles."

I just think that there are now a large enough library, that shoveling through the crap, you will find some really fun games, which was not my stance a year ago.
The Problem isn't that Wii isn't selling, the problem is the staying power, which like I said, I always compared to a honeymoon stage. However, my Honeymoon just started    I once farted on the set of Blue Lagoon. |

I'm kinda suprised the Arcade version didn't drop to 100 to steamroll Sony |

The Problem isn't that Wii isn't selling, the problem is the staying power, which like I said, I always compared to a honeymoon stage. However, my Honeymoon just started  | i've had a wii for almost two years now. here are the games worth picking up:
the standards: metroid, mario galaxy, zelda, smash bros - ::yawn::
not so stanard: no more heroes, mad world, conduit, dbz budokai tenkaichi 3, okami, medal of honor heroes 2
there are some great gamecube games worth playing too, like the severely underrated Gun.
games i wish were better: sonic and the secret rings, sonic unleashed
if you wanna throw down on any of the multiplayer games, let me know!
That's what it is.

I got it for the sports games and besides MLB, they were a huge disappointment. Madden was way to easy and NHL 2K9 was total crap. |
