You're recycling their soundbits right now.
"It's gonna change gaming 4evah!"
"Those other guys only care about Graphics!"
Here's the deal, I can see how the Wii might be enjoyable for mindless party games and the like, but nintendo has a history of gimmicks. Virtual Boy, Power glove, accessories simply dont make a game. Gimmick accessories are like the 3D glasses of videogaming, they dont do anything to really improve the games themselves, they just give a different way of playing them. Nintendo games have a history of being about as deep as a kiddy pool when they're based around a gimmick controller. Look at Donkey Konga for example, it's a mascot doing a tech demo for your plastic bongos.
I'm done with Nintendo for the most part, exept for Zelda. Too many recycled mascots, too much focus on perhipherals.
Other games will begin to become more emotional, the presentation more cinematic, the characters more dimensional and real. Nintendo will still be touting it's Wii 3, which features a cat to pee on to move foreward, a mallet to hit in order to move left and the moevement of your right and left toe to control weapons (backwards and right movements controlled by atmospheric conditions) IT'S A TOTALLY NEW WAY TO PLAY WOOOAAAAHHHHH screw those guys with their deep, cinematic games that involve interesting characters and not mascots and decent technological graphics we got CONTROLLERS!
I also dont think I could stand swinging around a controller like a retard for an hour, talk about lactic acid buildup.
