I gave up on nintendo about the time the N64 came out...strangely enough about the time final fantasy went to playstation, oddly enough. I kept track of the games since then i think its been going down the kid themed ritalin crapslide for quite a few years now.
Granted since then ive also become less and less a console gamer to a computer gamer only recently with the releases of rockband, guitar hero, Fable 2 and soon the guitar hero: metallica, have i even considered going back to console gaming.
game and hardware developers generally pick a demographic they think will bring them the most money, for nintendo its kids, family oriented fun and people who think exercising is waving a plastic stick around or trying to surf on a plastic block on the floor.
The x-box is for halo junkies (because really i havent heard much about x-box except for the halo games and fable 2, well that and all the madden games, but ill leave out my rant about playing sport video games as opposed to real life sports...
Playstation well, its a bit like the x-box, except that it also throws out a few gems like God of war and heavenly sword, the stories of Kratos the worlds angriest angry kid and his hormonal ex girlfriend....
But once again, and before the forum trolls come out to get me *coughorioncough* this is my opinon, and my opinon is subjective...don't read too much into it.
