The graphics on that Metroid demo were horrendous.

WTF?

this is what i dont get about the nintendo crowd... i think they'd love whatever the big N put out because this type of gaming has been done to death in arcades, theres nothing new here.

especially for a FPS, chances are, this new device is going to be one pain in the ass in terms of accuracy, and thats the most important thing in an FPS game.

I was a pretty mean shot in "duck hunt"

Ho-hum. Another mind-numbing, time-wasting games console.

I'd SO rather learn a new skill, be creative, and get out and do stuff in the real life, rather than couch-potato pretend.

I suppose I should look on the bright side. A new console should help Americans on their quest to be the most violent, obese and ignorant on the planet...

how come nobody is ever worried about offending me just cause I'm american? but if an american says something about anyone else it's like "you are so full of hate, stupid american"

wtf?

I'm American. I just choose not to live there any more.

IMO, England now turns more and more into an American clone every day. I think I'll try New Zealand next!

I miss good video arcade games, like when i was a kid. Arcade games have really died off. Any time I walk past the arcade at the mall, I glance in and I'm amazed at how crappy the games have gotten. I guess Xbox and PS2 have killed the demand.

The thing I liked about arcade games when I was a kid was playing against other people.

troll.

and what are you doing joining this thread, if not wasting time ? especially since games consoles are so beneath you ?

you just cant help yourself.

I for one, am looking forward to WII...to see how well they will implement the whole 'download-classic-games-from-the-net' side of things, like johnisfaster....I'm a fan of retro gaming...some retro games anyways
