I have to agree that is a dumb name, almost as dumb as the Dolphin eh? I'm not going to judge it until it comes out. I think the idea of having old school games available for dowload is a fantastic idea (Yes I've been doing it for years illegally). I really think this era of gaming will definetely seperate the old school players from the new school players. Now a days I get more excited about a Megaman X collection than Final Fantasy crap or the newest Halo or whatever seems to be the newest of something.
I don't give a fuck if its got HD technology....like that shit ever works to begin with? How many times have consoles and handhelds tried that formula? Hey lets make a console do something else! If that idea was true I would be sitting here typing this message through my Sega Saturn Web Browser, watching TV on my Gamegear, talking to my friends on my NCage, and taking a picture of the whole fucking thing with my Gameboy Camera! I don't watch movies on my PS2, because I know how many first gen systems burnt out... gimmicks like this never work. Look at the sales of the UMD movies? I mean who didn't see that shit coming?
Like I stated before the name Wii is retarted, who knows they might change it by the time it reaches the States. I remember when the PSX came out in Japan, they were really trying to push the "It's the Fun Machine" ads. So far my next console is between the PS3 or the Revolerrrr... Wii! I have no interest in an X-box 360, and I sure as hell don't want to spend 500 bucks on a gaming system, so right now I'm leaning more towards Nintendo. Nintendo hasn't surrender to the competition, they have way too much money. Look at the sales of the DS compare to the X-box 360 in Japan or here for that matter, its insane. Yes there is a price difference, but there was a huge price difference between the PSP and DS at first and the DS still reigned king. I haven't typed this much in years on this forum.
