So I have decided today that I will no longer purchase anymore Nintendo consoles. If you have read my blog posts it should be relatively easy to see I am steadily losing faith in Nintendo. How long has the Wii been out? It's been 16 months (or 64 weeks) since it's launch. Can you go buy a Wii if you want one? Hell no!!! Can you go out and buy a DS if you want? Not very easily. While more plentiful than the Wii, it still takes some doing to get one. I'm sorry. I just have a hard time believing that for the past 3 years straight you still have a very hard time buying their portable hardware after the holidays. Idea!!! Let's release a few more colors and not make very many!! Great idea......WTF!!!!! I'm just sick of everybody and their brother bugging the ever living crap out of me about getting them a Wii. Just because I work retail I can get everything, right? Wrong!! Even if I could get you a Wii, I wouldn't just because you annoy me to no end. Nintendo has run it's course in my life. Long live the PS3 and the 360!!

Ok, so I've had the Nintendo Wii since launch day. I love it and a few of the games that are on it. I really enjoy how different it is compared to any other console that has been released regardless of who made it. Here's my only problem with the console: "The games are too damn easy." I have sat back an watched the big 3 (Mario, Metroid, Zelda) become a former shell of their old brethren. I have competed all 3 with little to no effort. I just walk through them and it pisses me off. Remember when Nintendo games weren't about "casual" gamers? If you don't I implore you to go try the first 2 Prime games on the GC. These games were great as well as harder than hell. I'm just really upset about Nintendo trying to appeal to the masses by forgetting about the people that got them to where the are now. I just think it's pretty bad when the hardest game on the Wii so far that I've played is Guitar Hero 3. I have a feeling my 360 is going to be getting alot more attention in the coming months.

Thanks for not making enough product to meet demand with the Wii. It almost seems like you don't want to make any money this holiday season. I swear I have to tell people about 60 times (NOT kidding) a day that we don't have any Wiis on the phone or in person. I know everyone says you have ramped up production, but you aren't doing me any favors. I just get really tired of answering the same questions over and over and over and over and over. "Do you have Wiis?" "When do you get them?" "What time do you get them?" "Can you hold me one?" "Are you gonna have any on this particular day?" People are driving me up the friggin wall. Yes, I do have a Wii. I waited 27 hours in the cold November wind and rain to get one. I love it but damn. People just don't get it. And they act like its my fault because we don't ever have them. It's Darwinism at its best. Survival of the fittest. If you aren't there when they get pulled off the truck, you aren't gonna get one. Bottom line. Why bother calling? By the time you get here their won't be any left.....KMA Nintendo.

Some people just don't have opinions. Like bdmckinley.
bdmckinley must really love MovieTome and agree with every review we've ever written! What other reason could bdmckinley possibly have for not rating a single film?
