Gamers are some of the most dedicated and passionate fans in the world. While sports fans may know the most basic facts about their team, or movie fans may know the director of their favorite film, gamers know the developer, director, producer, publisher, composer and just about everything else there is to know about their favorite games.
However, there is a fine line between healthy fandom and unhealthly obsession. Some of these people, such as the fellow who has both Mario and Luigi tattooed on the bottom of his feet, tread that line. Whether these people are just expressing themselves and their love for Nintendo or they actually have a few screws loose, there is no denying that these Mario-related tattoos are nothing short of amazing.
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.
