[QUOTE="Janx, post: 6172500, member: 8835"] Probably the challenge to that is Nintendo's Seal of Quality that got tarnished by all the utter crap they let onto their consoles in each generation. You might be running into all the "good things" about Nintendo article. All I see are the "what utter crap" articles. There are youtubers who make a living off of making fun of bad Nintendo games. I think the topic is tricky from you, because you advocate 2 systems, PC and Wii. Lock that down to one. Which would you get? I predict you'd pick PC. Now scratch out PC because the console gamers are not likely to cross that threshold. Sony, MS, Nintendo. The die hard gamers won't be choosing Nintendo. As a second machine, it's a dabbling investment. As a primary machine, it's not even in the consideration for most gamers. Now popular opinion may vary by market (USA vs. other places?). But I don't see or hear other gamers talking about the Wii as a serious machine. It's more like a Honda Civic at the gathering of sports car enthusiasts where the cheapest car is a stock $90K Corvette. I have no doubt there's somebody who only owns a Wii and thinks he's a serious gamer. but he's got no cred because his ride isn't in the big leagues. [/QUOTE]
