This whole crap about hardcore gamers vs people who are casual gamers is stupid ... The Wii has plenty of games that cater for people who don't just like minigames.
Come on man ... :P |
Actually, I'd give the title of most innovative to Nintendo...but not for the Wii. The Nintendo DS is my favorite gaming platform at the moment. If I'm not mistaken, it's also the biggest selling.
Name one title aside from Super Smash Brothers that might make a mark in 2008, My Horse and Me? Nintendo has 3 first party titles slated for release this year...2 of which are "rehashes" like you mentioned the others doing (Super Smash and MarioKart). No More Heroes was supposed to be some sort of saving grace for hardcore gamers who own a Wii, but again...while innovative, it was a TOTAL let down. Even the developer has said he feels he's been let down by Nintendo and the Wii. Check the game review sites and see how the game scores hold up...they don't.
I'm not dismissing it at all. It is what it is. A console that's geared to get people who don't play video games into games. I bought one for my parents for Christmas and they love it. We have one and it sits collecting dust, because games worth playing have been few and far between. Zelda, Mario...that's about it. It's been a success, and with success comes a flood of garbage games...and that much no one can deny.
