would have at least done a top five game list per console, or at least explain his reasoning behind why he choose the games he did. View

You beat me to it BrotherNick. COD WAW is easily one of the best games to come out for the Wii and easily beats out the crappy PSP/PS2 Star Wars The Force Unleashed game. De Blob, Zack and Wiki, No More Heroes also should have made the lineup. View

I'm not really sure that I understand your complaint. In the first quarter of the year alone the Wii is getting two legitimate AAA titles in Madworld and the Conduit. Who cares if Nintendo isn't developing those games? Wasn't the biggest knock on the Gamecube was the fact it didn't have a lot of good third party support and hardcore titles? Now your getting two great titles off the back, plus the other fourteen you mentioned. Surely you don't expect another Zelda or Mario Galaxy this soon? I think Nintendo will continue to bring it's other titles to Wii slowly as they choose, but hey the third party support is finally stepping up and thats the big thing. Bye the way, you can add No More Heroes 2, K.O.R.E. and probably Red Steel 2 to your list. AND letd not forget all of the Gamecube remakes coming. View

I think it's important to point out that not everyone played Ocarina Of Time before Twilight Princess. When T.L.P was coming out, I heard a lot of people talking about how happy they were that O.O.T was finally getting a spiritual sequel in T.L.P. They game came out, it got great reviews and the fans got exactly what they asked for. Now, everyone tries to dog the game and Nintendo for giving YOU (the fan base )exactly what you asked for.

Now, since completing T.L.P I have went back and downloaded O.O.T on the Virtual Console and I now realize how close the two games really are. It was hard for me to enjoy Ocarina as much because the element of surprise and the sense of adventure no longer existed. But, regardless it would be ludicrous to say that either game was not fun or well made.

The problem as many fans have already stated is that the franchise is getting too repetitious. Nintendo needs to stop retelling the same some story and let the characters evolve or simply begin to introduce new ones. The problem with that is that the same fan base will probably start kicking and screaming because they don't want their precious franchise altered. It's time to choose between nostalgia or innovation and it's basically a lose, lose situation for Nintendo. View

To quote the seagulls from Finding Nemo, "mine, mine!" View

This game looks HOT! First day buy for me. View

I just wanted to throw in my quick two cents on the MP3 graphics debate compared to those of the Conduit's.

The Conduit is looking like it's going to be a very sharp looking game for the Wii, but nothing I have seen so far makes me think it's going to out shine what Retro Studios did with MP3. MP3's environment and character models are far more detailed from anything I have seen from the Conduit so far. Also, the lighting effects in MP3 are easily on par with any of the demos that I have seen from this game. I hope the people talking about "artistic style" in defending the Conduit are referring to the Conduits hero's and villains that look like they just been pulled out of a late 90's B movie and not the games polygon count. Also, the Conduits engine was originally made for a PSP (or was it a PS2?) and not built from the ground up for the Wii.

With that being said, I applaud High Voltage efforts in bringing a high quality new IP for the Wii. It looks like a great start for a franchise but thinking it will out do the quality of something done by Retro Studios (who has like ten years experience with Nintendo architecture) are fooling themselves.

The Wii still hasn't reached it's full potential graphically. No one expects it to rival those of the PS3 or 360. Still, when a company makes a statement about the graphics being almost 360'ish. That company better do a little better than what they are showing. But, I do like that fact that some 3rd parties are finally taking the challenge. View

I'm kinda excited for this game. The first one was far from perfect, but I still had a lot of fun playing through it. The game looks like it could be a good buy for people who missed out on the first one as long as they keep the price around $30. View

First off, I'm tired of people taking cheap shots at the Wii every chance they get. Any true quote, unquote "hardcore gamer" should know that a game like this is catered to focus more on an American and UK audience. (minus the mini game sequences which or very big in Japanese games.) Even so, I think the sales will pick up in Japan and will only continue to spike when it hits state side. I think it's safe to say that this one will hit the million mark easily by the end of the year as long as it hits its targeted regions. View

(soon as my paycheck comes in im getting a wii. any must buy games other than mario galaxy, smash bros brawl and zelda?)

I personally would add Mario Kart Wii and Metroid Prime Corruption to your list of must haves. Some other good Wii exclusives are; No More Heroes, Zack and Wiki, Medal Of Honor Heroes 2, Paper Mario, Mario Strikers, Rayman Raving Rabbid series, Trauma Center series, and Tiger Woods 09 (All Play.) View

The article is from 7/27/08. It's not that old. View

Damn this game looks like ass. View

Browsing through the comments, I saw many people jumping the gun and talking about Kingdom Hearts 3. At this point, NO ONE knows if this title is in development or anything else about it for that matter. However and a lot more importantly, if Square releases a port of Final Mix to the Wii, the game will sell at least 2 million copies. This will strongly influence Square's eventual decision to ultimately make the game a multi plat or switch systems completely, whether it be part 3 or 4 etc. It's all about business gentlemen. View

The name on the box art is different than both games mentioned in the article. However, Final Mix has never been released outside of Japan and has a HUGE following. A port to the Wii would not be unrealistic at all. View

Yes, this is all rumor and speculation, but if the games are being ported like the article says they are, the only logical consoles would be the Wii and DS. The PSP could be a long shot, but it probably would have happened by now. View

I am surprised that this law suit didn't come to pass a long time ago. I for one really miss the old 2k series. View

Very nice looking game. It's good to see another publisher besides Nintendo, Factor 5 and Retro Studios, put some real effort into a Wii game. View

Sony had motion sensing before Nintendo that's just a fact. Besides who wanted to copy who during the 5th and 6th generations? View

I am a HUGE Dreamcast and Wii fan, but I have to say with all respect this list sucks. Where is, Makken X, Sword Of The Berseker, Blue Stinger, Record Of Lodoss war, Charge and Blast? All of these would work great with the Wii's motion sensing ability's especially Makken. View

Wow, some of you PS3 fans sure are SENSITIVE. But, just because I like pulling your chains. Didn't Sony scrap the DualShock in the PS3 and instead gave you the MOTION SENSING SIAXIS controllers? Now, convince me one more time that Sony's not copying anyone.

Oh yeah, I'm calling B.S. on this statement. Show me one piece of evidence to back this up. I Googled it and even checked on ebay couldn't find anything. One more thing, I want it to be from Sony and not from some third party developer like Mad Crap.

"SONY DIDN`T COPY NINTENDO
why does everyone keep saying sony and M$ keep copying nintendo,you do know there was a motion controller for the PS1, so if anything nintendo copyed sony." View
