So I just got a Wii and I'm kinda disapp ...

Watching the SSBB videos and everything really got me into getting a Wii. I never played melee because I never had a gamecube but I did play the one on N64 as a kid. I loved that game, but Brawl...well if this game got a 9.5 then SSB 64 should have too because they are basically the same thing. Overall I was disappointed with the game because I thought I would be having more fun. Anyway this thread isn't about that game it's about the Wii. You know I think I had more fun trying to find the store that had a Wii in stock than actually buying it and playing it. There are three reasons that got me into buying a Wii and they are: 1. Seeing SSBB, 2. The whole omg Wii is sold out everywhere but keep trying!, 3. Missing part of childhood(I went from N64 to Xbox and didn't buy a Gamecube so I totally missed all the mario games on that system and I didn't want to miss them anymore). All three of these reasons ended up being unfulfilled. I played SSBB and it wasn't addicting and it wasn't all that fun afterall...I finally got a Wii and it was a disappointing product...If SSBB is indication that I wouldn't have cared about missing all these mario games then that ship has sailed.Let me explain to you why I am disappointed with the Wii as an overall product. I think that it is a very cheap device. The motion sensing detector device(whatever) sucks really bad. It is really a piece of junk, no matter where I put it. I had a hard time choosing letters in the Wii menu, it was so stuttery and so sensitive(I turned down the sensitivity and still didn't work) and so frustrating. I might be doing something wrong but I don't know, it was like this in all the other gamestop stores I went to. I cannot believe that I have to buy a Wii lan connector just to use the online, it's pathetic. It barely even has half the options the 360 does and on top of all that the Wii remote sucks ass for SSBB. When I was getting the Wii I had to buy an extra Wii remote and extra nunchuck, and component cables...and now I have to go back and buy a Wii lan connector to use the online? All I bought with the 360 was a game and a controller. I guess I see how they are making even more money on this thing.Anyway my overall experience with this thing is that it is very bland and cheap with nothing more to do than just play supposedly fun games on it...and I do mean supposedly. I hope my opinion changes when I buy SMG....I HOPE.So I just got a Wii and I'm kinda disapp ...
Well, to each his own. I personally love my Wii. Sorry your experience wasn't all that great.So I just got a Wii and I'm kinda disapp ...
Yeah the Wii as a piece of hardware is an overpriced joke. It has a few good games and all but only hardcore Nintendo fans could possibly love it. I mean if the hardware, games, and Virtual console were actually priced cheaply I'd be all for it but as is everything is a massive rip-off compared to PS3/360.

I put some question marks at that comment. But like the poster of the first reply said. To each his own.

I can understand what you're saying I guess. It's a similar case with every console though, it seems that modern games haven't really been ''revolutions'' in their genres as much as ''evolutions.''I try not to expect much in the way of revolutionary genre changes when it comes to franchises. I try to stick with the hope of a well thought out evolutionary gameplay technique, but sometimes there are revolutions for franchises, but not exactly for the genre that they are in.

I'm loving my Wii right now. I only have 4 games for it: Fire Emblem, Metroid Prime 3, Brawl, and Twilight Princess, all of which are amazing games.

PS: The hardware is pretty weak, the fact that it sells so well keeps the prices high. Why do you need to buy a lan connector to play online anyway? It comes with wireless internet access, but I guess it depends on your personal settings etc.
Just buy a core 360, and enjoy real gaming IMO

Hopefully you research your future investments better then you did this time.When you make a poor choice you only have yourself to blameBetter luck next time

Well, its actually a completely different thing. Sure the game has the same goal (knock your opponent out of the arena) but the rest of it is vastly different. SSBB changed more in comparison to SSBM than practically any other fighter did between multiple sequels.
Well maybe you haven't played it with like 4 people cause thats really whats it built on,''a party machine''. Especially Super smash brothers games since it really gets boring playing bots all the time.
I'm calling troll here. the wii-mote is really the best piece of hardware as far as motion controls are concerned. try the sixaxis implementaions and then talk about cheap motion controls. the wii isn't all it could be but it's sure better than what you make it out to be. so try again with some better arguments.

Your on SW and comments like that surprise you? I was thinking you were a troll myself when you said SSBB was the same as SSB.

Great job.
well reasons 2 and 3 are pretty dumb so its no wonder you arent happy with your wii.

He's a troll! What do we do with trolls! Burn them!
