Have you picked up Super Mario Galaxy? Metroid Prime 3? I'd recommend those if you haven't. They both have great visuals and are very well thought-out games.

In fact, 4 gamecube controllers, as the only point of Mario Kart is to play with friends anyway... and no one likes pretending to steer.

What are you talking about? I do. Racing games on consoles just can't touch the arcades. Why hate on Nintendo for trying to bring that experience home?

You're not required to use the wiimote, but the option is out there because dammit some of us do like the wiimote.

more actual new games for the wii please.
I can agree to that. But I think people are wildly understanding the amount of good games the Wii actually has, granted it's very modest compared to all the crap for it, but the same could be said for the N64 and it's considered a classic.

So? What kind of criticism is that? Nintendo were always targeted towards the kids, that's why they have always been successful, this company made it big at a time when video games were primarly for kids.

Why are you so anti-childhood? Criticizing Nintendo for being childish is retarded, of course they're childish, that's their business, keeping a part of our childhood alive. It's what makes them totally unique from the competition and it would be a crucial mistake if they ever changed that.

Whats wrong with games for kids? Many of the greatest games of all time were for kids.

I'd also like to point out the irony of how most "kids" games of the 8 and 16 bit era are significantly more challenging than most of todays adult games.

Games are getting too easy these days.

I'm not a fan of actually steering with the wiimote, I'd rather properly control it - but then again, I'm not a fan of arcade driving games. If I wanted to drive I'd actually go out and drive... I want to feel like I'm actually playing a game.

And I've got all of what are considered the best games for the wii... mario galaxy, mario kart, legend of zelda, smash bros, metroid prime 3, animal crossing etcetc but I just want something more now... most of these games are good for like, half an hour every now and again, but I wouldnt say anything too engrossing. Mario Galaxy was a doddle to complete, and I would go on to get every star but I've had enough of it now... I'm not a completist. And with Legend of Zelda, I dunno... I don't feel that engaged because I'm just essentially playing a Gamecube title, and I don't want that. I'm just being picky now.

But what DOES really piss me off is the price of these controllers. To use the traditional method of buying them, actually going to the shops and not buying off the ****ing internet, it costs you £60 for the wiimote and the numchuk. Just one set. If the Wii is so geared towards whole family fun, then why the **** have the controllers that expensive... who would ever by 4 numchuks and wiimotes at these prices...

Brawl and Galaxy are insanely addictive and TP is excellent.

I love the use of the wiimote for Galaxy and TP, it sucks for Brawl though.
