Reason to buy a Wii

I think that's a good enough reason to buy one.

Nintendo wins again.

Wii-Taculer!

I think this trumps the XBox. :lol: (PS3 is no competition yet)

Definitely getting this once my Wii is modded or something. >.>

I already have a Wii Mua-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha. but, looking forward to this.

Nope, still passing on this system.

Truthfully I say no because that must be the most bullshit reason to want to get the wii. That is all because of your Haruhi love. Other thant that it is not a great reason to buy it. I mean if you want it then go for it I'm jsut speaking for logical reason that 1 game isn't worth getting a system, especially a game such as that.

Damned casual gamer system...there are only 3 reasons to buy a Wii:
-Smash Bros
-No More Heroes
-Megaman 9

Some dance game is no reason to spend $200, if it is, I wish I had your paycheck.

It's a dance off!!!

wii fit

Fail for not including Super Mario Galaxy in that list.

Seriously, that's the Wii game everyone must own. I can understand the hate toward other games but Mario Galaxy? I just can't find anything wrong with that game. Classic platforming at its best, beautiful graphics and art style, amazing and innovative stages, great controls, and Luigi! In other words, it has everything that you could ask for in a platformer.

Please don't compare Mario Galaxy to the casual crap you can find in that Wii. It's an insult to Nintendo's legacy and long time gamers like myself.

Also, PS2 was pretty casual but I never saw people complaining about that. Seriously, I can name a lot of shovelware in that system without even trying.



You took this topic way to seriously.

I wish I had. >.>

Mario galaxy as a true msut have only if you are a fan of the standard style mario games. Most people though aren't really drawn by that style of gameplay anymore though. Same with LOZ Twilight princess. Some people jsut don't like the action adventure of teh series, but it is still a good game.

Most people? That game sold more than 7 millions copies. I'm pretty sure people are still drawn to Mario and Zelda.

agreed.

cheers to you moses, cheers to you.

galaxy and twilight(wii plus GC version) both have only sold more around 6 mil for each. Also realize that these 2 games aren't even the biggest sellers on teh wii. The shift of gaming from these 2 genres has flowed over to wii sports and wii play, which both are the main sellers of the wii. Also, Mario 64 sold 11.8 million while Ocarina of Time sold 7.6 million. Ocarina of time opening first month sold 2.5 mil. Twilight's first month sold around 1 mil (GC and wii numbers combined). This also looks bad because technically E.T. the video game on the Atari sold 1.4 million copies in a much shorter amount of time. And you get the picture.

Those are total sales. I wouldn't be surprise if Galaxy reaches (or even surpasses) those numbers come the end of this gen.

Also, TP didn't sell as much because Nintendo was having shortages during the first months after the launch. Wii Sports comes packed with the system so those numbers are meaningless and Wii Play comes with a free Wiimote.

1. Wii Sports (26.295 million)
2. Wii Play (11.51 million)
3. Mario Kart Wii (6.42 million)
4. Super Mario Galaxy
5. Super Smash Bros. Brawl (5.633 million)
6. Wii Fit (5.27 million)
7. The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (4.52 million)
8. Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games (3.4 million)
9. Super Paper Mario (2.28 million)
10. Big Brain Academy: Wii Degree (2.26 million)
11. Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock (2 million)
12. WarioWare: Smooth Moves (1.82 million)
13. Mario Strikers Charged (1.77 million)
14. Link's Crossbow Training (1.71 million)
15. Carnival Games (1.5 million)
16. Metroid Prime 3: Corruption (1.31 million)
17. Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition (1.3 million)
18. Rayman Raving Rabbids (1.2 million)
19. Sonic and the Secret Rings (1.2 million)
20. Resident Evil: The Umbrella Chronicles (1.1 million)

That's a lot of "hardcore" titles for a "casual gamer" console.

I agree with Azuran. And after working in a game store for almost 2 years, I never saw anyone buy Wii Play for the game. It was always "Hey, I'm buying a remote anyway, and I get whatever this game is for just 10 bucks more".

But to the original post, I'd love to see someone play that game, don't know if I could bring myself to play it, though, lol.

I doubt that galaxy is going to surpass 64. I mean 64 IS the world record holder. The only game that's close to beating that this generation is Halo 3 which has over 8.1 mil right now. But then again teh split in gaming these days. People back then were consent just to get a game and wouldn't mind what genre it was.
