I also like Nintendo as a company, they always seem to try to be innovative with their systems and games from the Power Pad to the WII. I think everyone owned a Game Boy.
Forgot about the Virtual Boy...... What a flop, but I still own one

Also someone needs to point out the irony of the first post in this thread not actually containing any "nintendo luv", or indeed, any real reason for kicking off said thread. It's just like a window broke between here and the UM boards, and everyone accidentally saw inside on their way to somewhere else.

I just saw that they're coming out with a new 'Punch Out' game on the Wii. I have many fond memories of playing that back in the day.
I'm not a big fan of the Wii though, so, mehhhh
They are, and it's a perfect example of my complaint. Mike Tyson's Punch-Out was HUGE on the NES, popular enough to get a rereleased and altered version once their license with Tyson ran out. Super-Punch Out on the SNES was an amazing game and is still popular to this day. It's a super-easy style of game to program. How long did it take to get a sequel? FIFTEEN YEARS.
And don't even get me started on the sequels that would be super popular but don't get released here because Nintendo hates America, like the Mother (Earthbound) series.
Also i wholeheartedly agree with your "mehhhh". I own one, but every time i buy a game for it it's a fairly grudging process. My recommendation is basically to use the GameCube controller for every Wii game that you possibly can, it makes them better.

Also, I've been playing the NES Punisher game lately. Most. Racist. Game. Ever. You walk through the streets and shoot african Americans, Hispanics in 'Chi Guievera' garb, white Rastas, and occasionally encounter albino mobsters and NINJAS. Why did I start on this absolutly rediculus game? Well, I've been reading the old Punisher comics lately. Now I'm only missing ten from my set...
And you are here, with them, as so many specks of sand.

One of my Fav games on NES!! I think the Punisher is a equal opportunity killer and if you were breaking the law and you were purple you would be dead. And come on everyone knows Rastas are always carrying and dealing!!!!!!!!! J/K

Im with you!I will always love Nintendo! I still own my original Nes Action Set in box... a little tattered, but still in good shape. I'll keep it till the day i die.
The only difference is I own the Top Loader.
Edit:I got rid of my regular deck years ago,I regret it.

Realize that "Wii is too casual" is basically massive lolskates for me. I post a thread out of interest to see what kind of posts I get, and I was not disappointed! I knew their would be whining about the Wii, and it happened, HOORAY!I think Matto was just trying way too hard with the opening post.
So, my findings? No Nintendo love here. Back to the UM thread I go! AND TO THE TRASH BIN THIS THREAD CAN GO MISTER MOD SIR!

Yes it must be this and not the fact that the motion controls make games impossible to play with any sort of precision, or that Nintendo's little sensor bar is way too small for my tv making the remote not even register on the right or left sides of the screen.

I'm going to bite my tongue, HARD, and avoid asking you my initial question. Instead, I'm going to ask if perhaps you are lacking in reading comprehension. This thread has proved that there is nothing but love for Nintendo, as well it should be! That's an entirely different issue from whether or not there is lots of love for the Nintendo Wii. Nintendo's an enormous company with a long, rich history of gaming. I'd be hard-pressed to find anyone in this forum who hasn't enjoyed something from Nintendo, whether the NES, SNES, Game Boy, N64, DS, Gamecube, or, yes, Wii. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, but did I or did I not say I own a Wii? Nothing I actually said about it, last I checked, was actually to the detriment of the system itself, and I was enthusiastic about the new Punch-Out to boot.
That's not even going into the fact that you think you can take your perverse kicks from this thread, ignore the little conversation going on already, and just command one of the moderators to trash this thread, its sole purpose of existence fulfilled.
Let me put it into words your 4chan-addled mind can grasp: EPIC FAIL.

Aight, I guess I'm unaware. So there's another thread that is arguing something in this subject matter and this one was to make a point for that thread???
Oh, most definitely. Problem is that thread's either on 4chan or GameFAQs.

I never could figure out how to play that thing, and I actually BEAT American Gladiators, a similar game.
Played American Gladiators about six months ago on Nestopia. How in the WORLD I managed to beat it I have NO IDEA. Even with rewind you'd get into situations that were no-win.
