If the Wii keeps ignoring lone gamers (aka me, Monday - Friday), then they're done for.
there are plenty of games out that you can enjoy single player, just because you don't like them doesn't mean other people don't.

and don't forget the Virtual Console

Warioware?

Mario Party 8 is due in March ... but again, Mario Party . It's another group game.

These "dates" are nothing more than fillers in the product database. Nintendo won't even give an official street date on any of these.




also, Mario Party WAS due March 6th ...
http://www.gamestop.com/product.asp?product_id=230005

the date was shoved back.

I'm curious on how Nintendo will keep re-inventing the games to make up for the inferior graphics compared to the 360/PS3...

You can only go so far before people start bitching on how things look

I don't have one :dunno: Not planning on buying one till MGS:4 Guns of the Patriots comes out....

Not planning on buying a 360 till the black one comes out either...

But mainly because I don't have a TV that can support HD h:

I barely touch my Wii.... :hs: (Ibetpenisjokessomewhere) No time for games lately

EDIT: Not trying to start anything but it was legitimate question, how long can you really stretch something out before you're out of ideas to make it "fun"

i am greeing with you on this... I am not a blindless fanboy they need to get games out there, or at least improve the virtual console while they get these games out.

on the + side, the Wii mote delivers for racing games. It's so cool to be able to turn your hands and turn the wheel. Mario Kart would be perfect for that.

Otherwise, i don't see how games that require precise key inputs can do well on this system. (Mario, fighters, shooters, etc)

We'll see. :dunno:



As far as graphics go ... this was the risk they ran to keep costs down. The Wii is extremely similar to a GameCube from a hardware standpoint. The looks are only going to get worse as time passes.

that wasn't for you


edit: as for your question, they will have made enough money by then that they won't care anymore

I would be one of the first to have Mario Kart for the Wii That'd be one hell of an experience...

I did play Dragon Ball Z for the Wii and it was fun to throw Kamehamehas and fireballs using the Wiimote... I recommend a rent for that just for the experience, you'll like it even if you don't like Dragon Ball h:
