#Cursed mountain pc metacritic ps3#
So while I don't agree that Sony has taken greater risks than Nintendo, I do think that game-for-game the PS3 provides a far better library of titles to choose from. I just wish the same ingenuity and imagination applied to the majority of Wii developers. It's not necessarily Nintendo that I'm disenchanted with at the moment, since I agree that they themselves have taken plenty of risks in stepping away from conventional hardware and making gaming accessible to a wider audience. And for what it is, I think the Wii is a great console.
I've been a big fan of Nintendo since I was about 5. Since then I haven't begun to run out of worthwhile titles, both on disk and via download. Then, after a while, I went out and bought a PS3. Then I bought a Wii and, while I found a fair number of games enjoyable, what irked me the most was the constant stream of worthless games hitting the shelves and an even worse selection of new and original downloadable titles on WiiWare. The fanboy bias in some of these comments are just as ridiculous as the blanket statement made by Tretton.įor the longest time after moving to Australia from the USA I started over with only a PC. Still can't wait for Mario, Metroid, and Zelda though! I'm such a sucker. It could bring in a huge amount of support for third parties. If Microsoft and Sony truly try and extend the life of their consoles another few years, Nintendo has a great opportunity to catch up with the visuals, while the others catch up with the interfaces. I actually hope the sales this holiday are a bit disappointing to Nintendo so the motivation is to get some sort of Wii HD thing on the front burner. I'm starting to feel the frustration of Wii games not quite living up to their promise. Are these casual gamers playing for a holiday and shoving it all in the closet? Are they looking for the next thing from Nintendo and finding nothing? How long did these people have to wait for Wii Sports Resort when the chief attraction to the Wii for them was Wii Sports? Nintendo bet on the casual market having an attachment to a particular brand and we won't know the answer to that one for awhile. Nintendo took the huge risk of alienating it's traditional core gamers and I have to say, Nintendo seems to be risking that daily. Nintendo broke through the perception of what gaming consoles should be.
"More risks" than Nintendo is hard to quantify, but it rings a bit false to me. Making something that expensive was a big risk. Sony did take a big risk by betting on Blu-ray so strongly and trying to make a console to last longer than the usual 5-year cycle.
