Spiral, most of your predictions are usually wrong, you usually officialize things that aren't happening because you think they're "obvious". Don't make me remember you the "different teensy costumes per console version" prediction, which for you was VERY OBVIOUS, but guess what, you were wrong. Stop talking for ubisoft, they didn't say anything official to you, so the C.E will keep as a mystery for all of us. Period.

P.D: I'm not against the factor of the HD being better than SD. HD is great but..heh, I have a Wii, and I can't do anything about that but appreciate what I have.
Of course the Wii was a failure. Not economically, sure, but the fact is, there aren't any really good games on it. Maybe a few. The Wii is a childish console. I remember my brother telling me this when I was younger and he bought an XBox, and I always said he's wrong and that the Wii is great. I finally understand him.
The Wii's motion controls, however fun they might be for a while in a well designed game, are very gimmicky, just like the Kinect and the PS Move. Gamers just can't play hardcore on the Wii. I also believe that the Wii-U's gonna be a failure, but that's just a matter of opinion.

Can you provide proof that spiral supported the preposterous theory of the Teensies? It seems really strange to me that he would say such a thing. In fact, I seem to remember you as the one suggesting it! (that may be wrong, though... :shock: )
I'm gonna call BULLSHIT on you. The Wii was not a failure. If it was a failure console, how could it sell more units, in the United States, than the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 combined in the first half of 2007? It has great games with amazing plots, beautiful level designs, and fantastic music, (Twillight Princess, Galaxy (2), Epic Mickey as an example) and so much more. Including the virtual console, for hardcore gamers. Sure it doesn't have HD, but the PS3 has no game that can match Ocarina Of Time or Donkey Kong Country on the virtual consol, Metroid Other M, Goldeneye and so on. Maybe 1 or 2, but that's besides the point.

And no, I am no fanboy, I have got an PS3 and I enjoy it.

The Wii was not a failure. I am totally with you, and the same thing happened to me with my brother, but you can't call it a failure. It may not have cracked up to be what it was intended to be and it may not have a lot of good games, but the good games were undeniably classic and amazing. The gimmickiness of it that you mentioned I actually do agree with you on.

Spiraldoor was neither complaining or claiming sails about anything. I don't know where you're getting this from. Most people don't actually think the Wii is "gay," that's more of a fanbased thought that the Nintendo fans have thought up to give them something to argue about, which in itself is childish. All the people I know, stupid or smart, jocks or nerds, that don't like the Wii actually have a decent reason for it, mostly because the content of games that spawns from the Wii are mostly directed more towards kids and possibly older people, and the T/M games tend to be both gimmicky and graphically downgraded when compared to their neighborhood XBox 360 and PS3 versions.

As I've said before, the hardware limitations of the Wii are a major turnoff for a lot of people, because, like I've said before, for a lot of people, graphics plays a major role in their choices.

It's not a matter of appreciation either, it's a matter of directional preference. If someone cared that much about HD but enjoyed the Wii, it's likely their reaction to either deal with it or go for a different console, and that's completely their choice, neither is wrong. It has nothing to do with appreciating what you have unless you don't actually have a choice, which you do.

I just personally don't want to see a deja-vu again. But what's the truth is he said it recently. I won't make the discussion go further.

I never was one for Wii Sports, when we got the Wii, I was waiting for my chance to play Super Mario Galaxy.

I only own the sequel of SMG. But I heard that it isn't quite rewarding trying the first, due to being an easier game.

Ah yes. :mryellow: Those were good times.

But better times were in the late 90's and early 2000's.

I really loved the Kanto region, Hoenn comes next and Jotho third. I didn't like Sinnoh at all.

Sinnoh blows. :? I loved Kanto and Jotho the most though, especially on the TV series. Hoenn was still quite good on TV, but then Sinnoh just became a bunch of random repetitive episodes, they lost their good English voice actors, and the show just totally ran downhill.

I think the series were really enjoyable until Jotho's ending. Hoenn's episodes are great too, but Sinnoh didn't attract me a lot. I think PKMN should have stopped in Hoenn.

You know, guys? Earthworm Jim would look amazing if they made a game about him with Ubiart Framework. Can you imagine that? just beautiful, and the Rayman Origins style just fits perfectly.
