Recently tech group High Voltage has announced the Quantum 3 engine, promising to bring hi-tech wizardry to the look of games produced for the Nintendo Wii. In their words, bringing them in line with competitors Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. But why bother?
Square Enix launches Final Fantasy X 25th anniversary site, revealing new Nomura art, books, music releases, and merchandise.
Look I know VIII has its issues and all that but how on earth can the do big anniversary events with new artwork and merchandise for VII, IX and X yet VIII got sweet f*** all.
They could have given it something during its 25th anniversary yet all it got was a single Happy Anniversary post on their social media.
they should know that we are OG fans of VIII as it sold truckload as well. not as much as VII or X. I personally didn't like IX but X and VI are my personal fav.
Shadow Hearts 2 covenant is another game I love. I hope one day someone can make remake, I would be delighted
Final Fantasy VIII is great and you are always the first to defend it in the comments
The Wii is now a retro console. Let’s get nostalgic about an often maligned system.
Crazy to think the WII is to the Switch 2, as the NES was to the WII back then. 20 Year difference.
My wife asks me to bust it out (heh) everyone once in a while to play bowling and tennis with the kids. There was a ton of slop on it but some good stuff as well.
Wii was great but boy howdy did it cause Microsoft to go on a dark walk with the Kinect and the disastrous XBox One launch that they arguably never recovered from.
Not nostalgic for me.. I was there.. anyone who wasnt a little kid realized it was a gamecube with shit tacked onto it, it was the "joke" system and was well below even the switch in terms of comparing it to the latest machines at the time. The machine was well loved by young people and "casual gamers" who now remember it 20 years on, or in most cases more of its sales came in the 15-20 years ago range not right at launch- but again its not nostalgic for people who were "gamers" then really, just for those who ended up with one in their house, the games , graphics, interface and online features were archaic already in 2006.

Better graphics would still look like crap in 480p. It needs 720p and the xbox 1 did 720p later in it's life so why can't the Wii do it? Going from a PS3 with clear visuals to a blurry Wii game is a real eye sore.
So it can bactually be considered a current gen console.
ok first we need hard drive,a good blue ray or dvd lets see some good sacrifice on this console maybe a good video card o yeah how about spend more money on it and stop tanking people for stupid with there price whatever the truth is i don't think they'll need graphics on this console they are doing just fine as far as i can see but they should work on the price since they didn't spend a lot of money on this console i think thats a ripoff. plz correct me if am wrong.
Do we have to answer that?
So that the Wii can play GTA4.
Is that eason enough?
