Lee G. Veteran Posted December 11, 2010 Veteran Share Posted December 11, 2010 Super Mario Bros. games. Only console you'll find your grandparents playing with you. Very true. My cousins have a Wii, and I have played on it with them and my grandfather. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chasethebase Reporter Posted December 11, 2010 Reporter Share Posted December 11, 2010 I would say one of the few things the Wii has going for it is similar in vein to what lcg said, first party titles. Nintendo has a knack for making amazing first party games, and recent releases are no exception. Other than that there really isn't much else and Nintendo need to have a new home console ready for E3 2011. One can only dream though. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yusuf M. Veteran Posted December 12, 2010 Author Veteran Share Posted December 12, 2010 Nintendo definitely has the right stuff with first-party titles. I don't think that's their biggest appeal though. To me, it's the casual and family-friendly "appearance" of their products. When people see the Wii, they see a fun and family-engaging console that everyone can enjoy, from dad to little Johnny. This wider appeal is mainly why Nintendo has sold so many Wii consoles.

jerzdawg Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 Wii has the greatest homebrew support since the xbox. The ability to run all of those emulators was enough reason for me to not sell it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bamsebjørn Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 The Wii has LED lightning integrated in the slot-loading DVD drive. :shifty: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PreKe Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 The Wii initially went back to basics. They focused on fun and experience. Arcade-like games that were just great fun. But then they started making crap like Metroid: Other M, and started moving in a more "hardcore" direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jen Smith Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 The Wii initially went back to basics. They focused on fun and experience. Arcade-like games that were just great fun. For me anyway, that's exactly why I bought the thing. (Well that and the Zelda titles.) Lots of fun and quick gaming. For the more "epic/hardcore" games, that's what I have Windows for, which (again, just opinion) find far superior to any console, just not a fan of the limitations a console brings, never mind the horrid controls.
