Wii... Boring?

Wiil

I've had the Wii since december and own: Excite Truch, The Godfather, Prince Of Perisa, Zelda, Rayman, Red Steel, Need For Speed, Tony Hawks, Resident Evil, WarioWare and Wii Sports and none of the games have giving me much joy. Not like the Playstation 2 did... WHEN IS NINTENDO GONNA BRING SOME FUN INTO THEIR GAMES!!!?

Metroid has been released in the UK. You should pick that one up.

Well we'll have titles like these soon:

Super Mario Galaxy
Battalion Wars 2
Zack and Wiki
Guitar Hero 3
Medal of Honour: Heroes 2

And Q1 next year:

Super Smash Brothers Brawl
Mario Kart Wii

Hopefully they get you interested, but the Wii might not be the best system for you if you're having so little fun.

Wiil

yah im waiting for Guitar Hero 3! xD

You're either a troll, or you have no taste.

Not that all of those games are good, but some are definately fun.

If you really feel that way, maybe the Wii isn't for you.

My problem with that is those arent great games for every one. For one i don't like puzzle games, so Zack and wiki is out, im not a fan of guitar hero, im not into rpg like strategy games, so battalion wars is out, i like imo real fighters like virtual fighter, Soul caliber, and mortal kombat,so Super smash bros is defenitly out its looks like the same game with differnt charictors(oh im gonna get flamed for that) Theres only two games out of that line up that i find interesting and thats Medal of Honor and Mario kart, But other than that im sorry not looking interesting to me, the mario title have to do some changing again, and leave the nintendo 64 format alone, and for gods sake no more stupid puzzle games and mini games the wii has had its share of these, if you want to releas those types don't charge me 50 bucks for mini games. Unless i see something differnt in the coming year the only game that makes me excited to see is Star Wars Force Unleashed.

Maybe the Wii isn't for you then, everyone has different preferences. I'm really looking forward to all of those games, they seem like a nice mixture of puzzle and action.

This is shaping up to be one amazing game, just because it shares some similarities with the N64 game dosen't make it a no go.

Mario games and Smash bros is not enough to carry a system through a cycle. Im enjoying my wii know because i didnt get it at launch and i still got games to play but thats not going to last me a whole year. I don't want to play games that i played on my dang gameboy(biwii), or play puzzle games and mini games that i can find on the computer for free. Dont get me wrong i like the wii but its time for them to start living up to the hype and stop trying to tyde us over with mini games and ports. If nintendo only puts out a good game every 5 months(1st party) and then when those games are supposed to come out push them back just to compete with other systems, thats not a bright future. you say be patient thats like telling some one hey buy this movie ticket from me and then ill tell you when the movie starts. I bought a system whose marki games where supposed to be launch games that two of them didnt even come out till a year later, and the rest have yet to come out. Patience is not the issue its keeping promised deadlines, and funneling out the crap games thats the issue.

When they have games that come out that are worth talking about then thats when people will stop making these topics, but these topics keep coming up because its not just a handfull of people that feel like that. You can visit all the wii forums even on nintendo and you will find similar topics about people getting bored with the wii. its just like i said the wii is great but how long will it last?

You're all idiots. You haven't explained what your taste of games are, and you just seem to state the games that you don't like, that's being negative. How the hell am I meant to suggest some alternatives if you just tell me what you hate?

And also, the guy who can't paragraph, it makes my eyes go funny so I just skimmed whatever he said, but it seemed to be exactly the same.

I admit, the third party developers have steered away from the Wii because it's too much of a risk trying to configure controls of the game. But now that they have seen the reception the Wii has got they're thinking of producing more titles. These are the early stages so I wouldn't sell it just yet.

Don't you like Nintendo producing their games? Of course they are going to make Mario games, he's their mascot, and the successful games people want back are coming back, you can't blame them for spending time on the big titles. I for one cannot wait for Mario Kart and Brawl because I spent most of my days on those games.

It's not fair complaining that there aren't any good games in the early stages. Might I ask, what in God's name did you find wrong with Zelda? That game was a pleasure every bit of the way. Let me guess, you wanted to see blood in it?

The games are coming.

And its really a matter of knowing what your getting yourself into when you buy a system, along with getting the right games so your not complaining..because quite frankly, those games you listed (most of them) are BORING.

Super Mario Galaxy is shaping up to be a great game.
That one is one I am most looking forward to.

Also, look around on sites, find out some news on upcoming games.
You may surprise yourself.

People like Wiil and yungblood6 are not alone, as it seems studies and surveys are turning up all over saying (such as this one on Joystiq) there are a large number of Wii owners not playing there Wii's. Even if you don't believe in such results, you can see it for yourself when you compare the game sales to that of the 360, considering that both systems have sold approximately the same amount of consoles (roughly), the Wii game sales are fractional in comparison. (Not just because of Halo 3.)

There is no doubt there is a large number of killer games on it's way for the Wii, however due to late developer support and slow progress a lot of owners are just getting bored. Regardless if you are open about this boredom or not, with some calling it a "game drought" while others are being more blunt about it, we are all still idling for that next big release. Europe finally got Metroid, and Galaxy is just around the corner for the U.S., and there is still several other great games from a wide array of tastes coming this month and well beyond 2008. It's just a matter of sticking it out until we find that title that best suits your agenda.

Regardless we are all awaiting our own choice in upcoming titles to some degree, even if we don't know what we want. The best advice is to be patient, and find something else to fill your free time until then.

So those other people don't know what they got themselves into, and do not play the right games as well then?
Thats the big problem, sure there is not many games out right now worth playing (just yet).
Welcome to the first full year in a consoles life is all I have to say.

There's about to be an EXPLOSION of really good games coming out. of course, just in time for the holidays.

Medal of Honor
Fire Emblem
Super Mario Galaxy
Guitar Hero III
Batallion Wars II
Soul Calibur
Trama Center
ETC...

Clearly people have different tastes. It's understandable. But saying nintendo doesn't have fun games coming out is a pretty big stretch. I'm not even intrested in some of the games on the list i just posted, i was just showing some of the titles coming out that WEREN'T like Hannah Montana or Highschool Musical(or whatever other crap is being released on the Wii) and Games that have really good hype behind them.

Rent some of these games after they come out, and if you're still not satisfied, then i guess the Wii isn't for you.

As for myself, I'm going to be VERY busy and VERY broke this holiday season . Certainly enough games to keep me content until Feb. 10.
