Nintendo confirms Wii price: $unannounced

May 13th 2006 12:17PM (Joystiq)
Better resolution, more polygons, more realistic, etc, these are the trends of the video game industry of the past ten years, and honestly it's bored me to all hell. There's something about cartoony games that I just love. It reminds me that it's just a game. It keeps it fun.

I think the wii is absolutely ingenious and I hope it succeeds. I'm tired of more sports games where the only difference is the year after the title and which sports professionals are included.

And while it's true that right now Nintendo is only releasing the "same old games", the hope, the desire, is that such a different type of system THEN encourages different types of games. There's always a lag time between when a new interface is developed to when it's adopted by programmers. What we see right now is people making their old games to work with the new controller.

After the initial release, we'll start seeing programmers / gaming companies coming up with *NEW* ideas, inspired by the new interface. There's always a lag time, and sometimes you just have to vote for change, vote for something new and different...
