My Wii rant!!!!!

JerrodDRagon · 12-24-2006, 05:48 PM

Ok first off I love the wii the games are great and I love the Wii remote. But this makes no sense.
They made 3 channels Forcast, News, and Wii online Browser all 3 were made for the Wii and FREE
Yet they dont want to give us a Free Mario game that was made over 10 years ago??? A game that costs only 1000's of dollars to make and is old cant be released free for us gamers yet 3 Wii channels that are new and cost over a million dollars to make all 3 is Free???
So whats the deal with this, Nintendo OWNS Mario and can give his game away for free (I can understand why the other games cost) but for a One day deal they cant give use a Mario Game??? I say there being cheap and should have said lets be nice to the people that got the Wii by either standing in line for hours or paying extra Money but I guess Im the only one who feels that its just BS.

They're being cheap? Didn't you get a free sports game with it? Nintendo doesn't make money by giving stuff away. Just go open a checking account and get a debit card. Nuff said.

danm dude how else are they gonna make more money

Dont you think they have already giving you enough free stuff!!!!

I guess Nintendo should have just sold the Wii for $600 and made us pay for that first game.

Dont Whinge, Go And Get A Xbox 360, Pay 300 Quid, Pay For Your Online Needs, And Be Far Happier (And Much Lighter In The Pocket)

it is pretty homosexual i agree. but if you think about it, its a great sales strategy.

maybe a 'free game of the week (or month)' is not a bad idea though. like itunes' song of the week of something. just spitballin

If you're that pissed off, then just get the ROM. Although it certainly is not recommended.

Santoanderson · 12-26-2006, 02:20 AM

Yeah, IF they ever do a free game of the month thing, it probably wouldn't be for another year or two. There's only about a dozen games right now, and only about 5 are worth something. Don't expect something until supply is up and demand is down.
