Poll: Have you played the Wii yet?

[Haydyn]

Come on, I know Nintendo has backstabbed us by sucking off as many casual gamers as possible, but the Wii has a lot more variety. Most of my games on my 360 have one center theme: Kill people. Let me go through my collection (I recently sold about half of my games because I never played them.) I have 12 games. 11 of them involve killing peope with either, guns, swords, magic, or very British minions. (The one that doesn't involve killing is Rumble Roses XX, for the record.) If I'm playing the Wii, I have the option to kill stuff in SSBB and Twilight Princess, but I can also do tons of other things like Olympic events, sit-ups, various sports, and about 5 different kinds of tennis/ping pong (Wii Tennis, Wii Play Pingpong, MvSatOG table tennis, Wii Sports resort Tennis, Wii Sports resort Ping pong.)

Don't worry. I still hate the Wii. It just that I get tired of virtually killing things from dawn to dusk.

No, because I have listened to everyone who owns one, read all the articles, and even looked at the games because I work in an electronics department. They never seem to like it.

I refuse it. It isn't that great. Oh well.

All the controllers, peripherals and other stuff they want you to buy...can someone say cash cow?

MMMMMMMMOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! <---- Nintendo taking you to da bank!

What's wrong with a cash cow that has all the bells and whistles to make it a fun ride? My friend owns a Wii (he's a Nintendo fan boy who also owns a mint and perfectly working Power Glove and Virtual Boy). He and his fiance play Guitar Hero so we passed the guitar at a halloween party and it was good fun.

I did, a couple of times. I didn't like Wii Sports and Rayman Raving Rabbits, wich were the first Wii games I played, but I did like Mario Kart Wii. I lóved SSBB but I don't count that one, because when I played that, I played it with a Gamecube controller, wich kinda destroys the point of the Wii.

 

[Agrael]

Yes, yes I have. I played Wii Boxing, and I ended up with wanker's cramp and my muscles were screaming: ''YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO PUNCH THE TV HERE MAN!''

 

[Samurai Goomba]

I played Wii Sports and De Blob, maybe some others. I can recommend De Blob as probably about the only all-around good Wii title I've seen so far.

But I haven't played either 360 or PS3 because I don't think any of the systems (including the Wii) are worth the cash.

 

[PureChaos]

i have one, great fun...mostly

 

[mikecoulter]

I own one, and I'm very sad that Nintendo won't stop the whole casual gaming bollucks.

They're making too much money to stop now. But put it this way, it could just be them selling out (slightly) to fund something super awesome for the next gaming generation. They we're totally destroyed last gen by the PS2 and Xbox, they may just be building revenue. Think of what they could do with that power sometime!

That's a nice little spin on things I like to imagine...

 

[Sieni]

No, and I'm not going to.

 

[Broady Brio]

Played it? Yes. Red Steel and SSBB.

Own one? No. I use my friends.

 

[Magnatek]

I own one, but then I got a DS the year after that, and after that, I got a decent laptop that can play games on a decent setting, so like most others here, mine's in the corner, gathering dust, at least until the Metroid Prime Trilogy comes out.

 

[Julianking93]

Had one. Sold it within the first 4 months. No one game is worth an entire console.



Except MGS4 of course.

 

[lycan7hropy1975]

worst console ive ever bought, and i had a jaguar and 3D0.

 

[Jark212]

I have, but besides Super Mario Bros. Brawl, I'm not very fond of it.

 

[LackingSaint]

Yes, it's fun with friends. I'm not the kind of guy who avoids consoles for petty fanboy reasons. At the end of the day, it was built to entertain, not to take God's place in the heavens.

 

[Razor_01]

Had one and sold it. I have the PS3 also and there were very little good games to play on the Wii so I sold it.

 

[DrDeath3191]

Just recently picked up Resort and the Conduit, both are great fun.

For the record, that means yes, and I'm in the minority of people who actually enjoy their Wii.

 

[DrDeath3191]

The fact that the top-selling system is just a gimmick makes me want to punch gamers.
What is wrong with you?!

We like fun games regardless of the console it's on. Cool your jets, man.
