Oh my, I just remembered. Sony is taking back all PS3s because they're coming out with a new model.

One that's a different color.

No joke, when we had to figure out what's wrong with our PS3 recently, we called Sony and they told us they're coming out with a new model in a different color. I haven't heard of anything else that's different than the regular PS3, but there's a good chance that you'd have to wait a few extra weeks.

Really now get a Wii while you still have a chance. Just go to any store you can find that might sell a Wii and you should find one.

Ten-year-olds...you mean, those immature little brats who are so different from you, who are apparently a whopping two years older than them? Moron. First of all, you're too young to be on Newgrounds. Second, nobody is putting a gun to Wii owners' heads and forcing them to buy shovelware. A few of the greatest games of the past decade can be found on Wii (TP, Brawl, SMG, etc.), and that's all you really need.

The pre-teen notion of "maturity," probably caused psychologically by an inherent middle-schooler's desire to separate oneself from "children," is as ridiculous as it is narrow-minded and stupid. Ironically, once you actually grow up, you'll find that, especially when it comes to entertainment media, fun is ageless.

Trolls trolling trolls being trolled by trolls.

Honestly you people, you should grow up. The Wii has a great selection of games that are fun, what does it matter if they're Nintendo titles or not? And claiming the games are orientated for 10 year olds, I mean wow, you know what else is orientated for kids? Halo, Guitar Hero, ps3title since I can't even think of one and pretty much every other popular game. Just because a game is colorful and non-serious instead of GRITTY and bloom you think it's just for kids?

Exactly. I absolutely love Viva Pinata and that game is oriented towards 7 year olds and up. Notice the "up". Same goes for movies. Bee Movie is meant for kids, but I still enjoyed it. As long as you get pleasure over whatever you're playing or watching, then you shouldn't have to care what demographic it's aimed at.

Don't be retarded on purpose. It makes it hard for us to tell when you're being retarded for real. And Sony wouldn't take back all PS3's unless they had a 33% failure rate or something.

To the OP: I support your decision, because (to be frank) the best lineup for the next two years are pretty much PS3's exclusive property. 360 has Fable 2 and Ninja Gaiden 2, while Wii has Boom Blox and (maybe) a new Zelda or Star Fox, but it's quite hard to say that that's much compared to MGS4, LBP, Team Ico's next game, FFXIII/XIII Versus, the yearly Naughty Dog (possibly Jak) and Insomniac (Resistance 2 and Ratchet) games, and Killzone 2(I don't buy the hype, just throwing it out there). Metal Gear alone makes the "Well, </insert game here> makes the </insert console here> WAAYYY better than </insert console here>" argument against the PS3 retarded, but that's just me.

i have a real good point here there is like 4 or 5 rated m games for the wii and i don't mean it's based on ten year olds i mean that the audience for the wii is like wide with different ages of "casual gamers" and majority of the games are targeted to kids. all i'm saying is if the wii can get some more mature games and a better flow of games from third party developers it can become an even better system in the future.

Wouldn't that make it AO and essentially porn? It's easy to name a 17+ (M), No More Heroes and House of the Dead 2 &3 are 2 I own personally. I bet there's a list of M rated Wii games in Wikipedia or soemthing.

Well, yes, third party support and wider demographic support are always good things. You're right about that. What I don't like is the notion that just because a game isn't "mature," that must make it targeted towards kids.

In my opinion, the wider the audience, the better, as long as the gameplay isn't dumbed down to make that happen (like it is on many third-party Wii games). The first-party games, however, are filled with top-notch quality, and people shouldn't back away from them just because of the non-serious themes and brightly colored visuals.

And honestly, even if a game is "for kids," who cares? As long as it's fun...

For fucks sake;

Sell your Nintendo Wii. Get the monies for it. Then shut up about it, and keep it that way. Nobody cares about your opinion.

Hahah, someone woke up on the wrong side of the futon.

I came to the Video Games forums to get THEIR opinions on what I should do.

And, if you did read you'd know that I already sold my Wii, and I'm debating whether I should buy a PS3 or not.

Pull your head outta your ass before you post, or simply quit being a dumbfuck and read the fucking topic.

All I know that if Boom Blox fails to impress me, my wii will be use for Game Cube games only. And the VC, you gotta love all the games on it.
