Are those of you who felt let down by Nintendo's E3 showing hanging onto hopes that maybe, just maybe they'll pull something out just for you at the last minute? As if it were your birthday, and all day everyone seemed to have forgotten, and just as you're heading home for the night, surprise!
If that sounds like you, here comes Cammie Dunaway to crash your party.
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.
New Chrono Trigger Form-ism figures of Crono and Marle have been showcased at a Square Enix pop-up store, with pre-orders expected soon.
The Nintendo DS has some amazing titles available. Here are some of the best nostalgic games that every child of the DS era grew up playing.
I enjoyed both Rush games, I did think the action was sometimes too fast to see what was coming up in terms of hazards though, which meant replaying the same stage a bunch of times, other than that they were enjoyable, good special stages, 3D sections and bosses for the most part.
DS is one of the best consoles of all time. Such a rich library of software
Zelda were all glorious on it.
Nice article spin. Take what was said, totally change it around and present it as fact. We already know they are saving their HC games for TGS, that is still in 08. Saying we have seen the 08 line up is hardly the same thing as NIntendo will announce nothing else new this year.
better be amazing... I think they got a hint that core gamers were not too happy about Nintendo's offerings, they have enough time to scrape something together for us.
hardcore hasnt gotten a hardcore serioes single player game since no more heroes, nintendo sux, sry serious gamers use their ps3 or 360
the nintendo line up for 2008 and beyond is crappy imo. its been crappy, so why would anyone think otherwise. its nintendo, a kiddie system.and you cant tell me otherwise because if you look at the lineup it mostly for kids. and being an adult i find those games crappy. but my daughter would luv it. because she's 4 yrs old.and the wii was made just for her. thanks nintendo for keepnig our children in you thoughts and giving them a headstart system to introduce the kids to gaming. your the best nintendo.
"You have seen the extent of Nintendo's 2008 holiday lineup,"
That sounds pretty much like what the article promises. I suppose they could release something new in September or October. But why wouldn't they announce that at E3? You need a few months to raise public awareness.
