Instead of going out to the local sin parlor and imbibing tumbler after tumbler of sin-juice with strangers of the opposite sex, invite your friends and family over to your small studio apartment to play video games! Sure, it's not for everyone, but we're big fans of Wii parties (why do you think Nyko made this frankenstein?).
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.
It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.
Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.
That's actually not a bad idea.
When Brawl comes out I might actually throw a Wii party...
perfect.
here's an idea Nintendo: make a party mini-game strictly based on using Mii and don't let Hudson make it. Mario Party 8 bites. I want my 50 dollars back.
i have to agree with you unsunghero28 it all about wii party
sounds a little too close to "home"
Hehe, the wii is the ultimate "get ladies to your place" video game system.
