You find yourself missing great graphics.

How can you call a system boring? What is it about the system that makes it boring? :confused: Isn't it the games that make a system fun or boring? Funny how the PS3 fanboys go on and on about all the great games that will be coming out for the PS3, but because the Wii doesn't have a great game selection yet it's boring. :roll:

The Wii is not "boring," and with its tremendous sales the game selection will only get better.
Of course when I saw a system is boring, I mean the games are boring...

Only two games actually worth Playing on the Wii

Twilight Princess
Paper Mario


PS3 has awesome games out already

They may not be exclusive, but its better than playing two games over and over. Unless you count Mini-games.

You clearly have not played many Wii games.

...
So basically, because I have an opinion, I haven't played the system?

No. I don't think you could have played some of the other great Wii games and still say that there are only two games worth playing on the Wii.

Of course with your "unless you count mini-games" caveat you ruled out 3 of the best Wii games. :confused:

And So, if I say that I did play the Wii, would my opinion be legit? Because I did play multiple games on the Wii, and it got boring after a couple of hours. Not veryone has the same preferences as you, you know.

And I really do not like playing mini games. They are only fun the first 3 times you try it then it gets old. I prefer games with a story, character development etc.

What other good wii games are out right now?

I thought it was only Zelda?

BTW its hard for me to justify spending $50 on a game, so seriously, what good games are there?

Twilight Princess- Good, but I've never like Zelda games. So I could be a bit biased
Excite Truck- A inferior Motorstorm, seriously
Splinter Cell- Bad
Wii Sports- Fun, then boring
Wario Ware-Fun then boring
Paper Mario- Pretty fun. Not enough game time to give a review
Far Cry- Hated
Wii Play- Basically Wii Sports
Red Steel- Potentially good, but bad
COD 3- Better then Red Steel, but still mediocre

With that list, and considering that you don't like mini-games, it's not surprising that you only liked 2 games.

Tiger Woods absolutely rules on the Wii. Of course, if you're an ADD rattled adolescent PS3 fanboi, you wont make it past the 30 minutes or so it takes to learn to swing and then complain that the game sucks.

Trauma Center, thats also really good and a game that cant really be done on any other console.

Now Now, many of us own both "next gen" consoles. They both have their strengths and weaknesses. :laugh:

What more do you suggest?

Tiger Woods is great. Although you already said you get hung up on the Wii's inferior graphics, so you probably wouldn't like it.

Gamespot gave Madden 07 for the Wii a better rating than the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions.

Trauma Center is fun.

Call of Duty 3 is good, but you'd get hung up on the graphics. I normally can't stand playing FPSs on consoles because dual analog sticks suck compared to a keyboard and mouse, but Call of Duty 3 uses the Wii remote very well.

The Godfather is good, although I haven't played it on the Wii since I already have it for the Xbox.

Funny, everytime I play something not on my PC I say that.

Because all Xbox 360 owners love the Wii. :roll:

According to him, most of the Wii games out now aren't worth playing. I can see that, as I am selling my DS from boredom of the games I have, and I am not really a thief anymore, so I don't want to steal DS games.

Try SSX and Madden.

For Wii Sports and Wario, have you played them with other people? That's when they shine.

How can you get bored of gameplay, but graphics keep you interested? If you get bored with a game, then so be it. But who keeps playing game simply because it's nice looking.

I am going to hazard a guess, PS3 buyers?
