How unfortunate
. I kicked Ares210's ass while it was working in boxing though. Got Zelda and Red Steel with it, although didn't get a chance to play them.
Even better, most of the games you just listed will probably become available for download on the wii. Maybe not goldeneyeAres210 said:Mike bought Zelda but it broke before we got to play it![]()
And on the topic of N64, best system like ever. Marioparty, 007, Mario Tennis, mariokart, and Super Mario 64. Man those were the days... *flashback*
No it isn't. It's targeted at the regular person. The PS3 is for some 'UB3R H4RDC0R3 G4M3R5" and the Xbox 360, at basically any gamers. The wii is inteded for the average person, even the person that doesn't play video games, or the one that does. Saying it's targeted at children is just ignorant.name='antikill' said:The Wii is targeted at kids but it is cheap so its is more affordable than the ps3 and xbox360 so as long as it has lots of good games coming out it will be a good seller.

name='Ares210' said:I thought the same thing as all i really liked to play on the Gamecube was Mariokart and Marioparty but they had no fps and such, just little kid stuff. After playing the Wii though, its really changed my mind. Its not a hardecore system but it is fun to play with lots of good game titles, not just Mario. All in all, its worth the measily price tag of $250 IMO.
