GAMES: GameSpot GameFAQs MOVIES: Metacritic Movietome Comic-Con

So I log in today and I get an invite to a Union. When looking at it, it's from someone I do not know, and it's for the union called: The Big Nintendo Nations Union. So the real question is did this guy see something i post and want me in or did he just rifle through names he saw and just invite anyone he could get?

I am going with just rifle inviting, which people really need to stop. In the past year I have been very out spoken about my disappointments and frustrations with Nintendo, so why would i ever join an Nintendo based Union. Plain and simple Nintendo has turned its back on the core of the gaming community, the people who made and been playing with Nintendo since the 8 bit NES. Once upon a time I was thinking I wanted to pick up a Wii and enjoy it, but I waited and it was the smart move in the long run.

If anyone remembers the LameCube, i mean GameCube, what did Nintendo do real well...release a ton of Kiddie crap games or just plain old BAD games. So with that said i waited to see what Nintendo would put out and just like with the LameCube, the Wii is piling on the Junk titles and leaving only a few quality games to play. I am sorry, but owning a console needs to be justified with quality titles and non just a few and far between. The reason the 360 is doing so well this time around is Blockbuster titles, quality titles, and IPs that people know and love, are showing up on the 360. Myself being a person who swore off Sony after the PS1 (because the PS1 was poorly built and it is the only system I ever had to replace and at that...replace the unit twice) I am now at the point that I would pick up a PS3 over a Wii.

Plain and simple the Wii released strong with titles like Zelda and Metroid released not long after, but that was about it. The good titles then even slowed further and the last game worth my time being No More Heroes, I am sorry but that is too few quality titles coming out whereas the PS3 started slow, but now is turning out the Quality games and it makes it more enticing to buy.

What it comes down to is, don't invite me to Nintendo unions because plain and simple, your system is OBSOLETE. The overall quality of your games are CRAP and your system is also BEHIND everyone else in the world of ONLINE GAMING. Plain and simple Nintendo, stop releasing the Kiddie crap and get back to making games for the core gamers, the ones who BUILT YOUR BUSINESS! Oh btw, HAHAHAHA FOR WII MUSIC'S FAILURES! Build a game where you can fail, not the "everyone is a winner game" because that type of game is made for LOSERS!

Just want to say, everyone has opinions and the friend I have don't have to share them to be my friend. This response isn't an attack, just my feelings. Just clearing the air before hand, in case it needs some sprucing up.

Honestly, the GCN was my favorite Nintendo console since the SNES. It didn't have all the top of the line RPGs, but it did have Skies of Arcadia, Killer 7 and Resident Evil 4, to name a few. There was tons of multiplayer fun and I don't remember Nintendo putting out many if at all any "kiddie" games. I know 3rd parties put out junk on that system and now the Wii. But the PS2 had it's fair share of Barbie games and those Petz games.

The Wii has been out for 2 years and we already have Mario, Zelda, Metroid, Super Smash Bros and Mario Kart. There are talks of more Mario and more Zelda on the Wii. I honestly don't think that Nintendo has turned it's back on me. The 3rd parties for the most part are responsible for the shovelware that sucks. Nintendo is doing a good job balancing their releases. With No More Heroes 2 and Mad World coming out, I don't see the "kiddie" image. I see it as a system for everyone. Also, Wii Music was in the 10 spot for November. Just sayin'. I honestly don't care if you love, hate or loathe Nintendo. I just get annoyed by all these Nintendo doesn't care about it's core audience comments. I just don't see it.

So you do have Left4Dead? Lets kill some zombie horde! Or whatever. I wanna shoot something co-op.

Haha, my friend I am always down for popping a cap in a zombie or 2...but in a way...Left 4 Dead....like CoD:WaW it could have been on the Wii, but games like that never make it to the Wii. You are right, Nintendo is still putting out good to decent (Mario Kart Wii was a diasppointment for single player, but is fun for online) games of their Licenses, but its just not enough anymore. When you have companies like Activision putting out games like GH series, Call of Duties and the Wii gets either watered down versions or as you call it, put out the shovelware. It seems like you have to rely on Nintendo for the most part to make the good games for the Wii. Whereas companies like Avtivision, Take 2, ect make some great games for the 360 and PS3, but not for the Wii....GTA 4 for example. Replying on Nintendo for the great blockbuster hits is just well again too little and far in between, whereas a great title comes out for the 360 and/or PS3 almost on a monthly basis. Glad not everyone feels Nintendo has left its core gamers in the cold, but i don't know...i still feel they ditched gamers like me in favor of Grandma and Grandpa or even the little kids in the family and they allow 3rd parties to chuck so much shovelware on the market.
