Galaxy aint that good - you can finish it in a few days - and it REALLY could have released on the gamecube with barely any difference - i waited F***ing AGEEEEEEEEEEES for galaxy to come out and as a big mario fan that is my honest opinion. Paper mario IS a flippin gamecube game how stupid did i feel playing that ropey crap - VERY. I returned almost every wii game to the shop after a few days. Res 4 ? played it on PS already - the only wii games i have kept are quirky niche games like rapal...
you are mental - im not even interested in how or why or production costs or any of that - im just saying RIGHT NOW Nintendo are pissing people off left right and centre - im one of the lucky few who has a WII here and to be brutal i feel like selling it (ebay) for £100 more than i paid for it and getting a PS3.
they have alienated everyone here - the only people left buying the wii IF they can get it is parents for their kids for xmas - the rest of operate on a 365 day calendar and ACTUALLY buy machines in other months apart from december. And it'll be those same parents walking out of the shops with xbox and PS's because there STILL ARE NO WII'S IN THE SHOPS HERE.
what the hell do i care i'll be waiting approx 3 years for this to be released where i live. Y-A-WN. I didnt know there were 300,000 wii's in existence.....me and my mate brian got the only two in the UK last year, i thought they manufactured 6 for japan 4 for the us and north america and 2 for the uk, which me and bri got. thats a total of 12 machine on earth.
and by the way Patrick Ross that article above is badly written - i may have some typo's but even i can do better than 'Well thats crap'.
Firstly it's not a competition - it real and whoever sells the most DOES actually 'win' lets get that straight. However and sadly (because i used to love nintendo dearly) the are losing old school fans and new alike by treating us with barely concealed contempt, i live in the UK just to fill you in - im still sore about the utterly shamefull 'release' of the wii here - you still cant pick one of the shelves here - one full year after the launch - accessories are scarce and the games (especial...
you are correct about the no games on wii thing and the ones that ar eout are shockers apart the obvious ones - and they could've come out on gamecube with barely any difference. i dont know what the word is when you release a console thats actually a step back in time. i know what i'd like to call it - a friggin rip off - thats why the price was so low it had to be to keep us from burning their offices down.
