Wii Play is a more sophisticated game experience than what I just saw. And that is excluding the Tanks.”
It’s a damn bold and 100% right statement! I was just picturing an IGN editorial with your phrase as the sub-header, lololol. (another parody idea, maybe?)
I personally am a fan of the tech side of games and I appreciate titles like Batman, Mass Effect, and some other high-value productions.
BUT, and it’s a enormous BUT, this games should be the exception for the SMALLER part of the audience who likes them. I don’t know if you agree, but I see room for every type of game as long as it finds its fans instead of being marketed as THE FUTURE OF VIDEOGAMES.
With Mario selling like water in the desert, I hope that game companies will realize that gaming should return to be about fun and not about numbers.
Have a great week, Sean!

This is why when they see the Wii success, they only think ‘marketing success’. When they see NSMB Wii, they only think ‘Mario brand’ or ‘lazy’ due to not many ‘art assets’. This is why when they see people buy the Wii who do not buy their stuff, they see only ‘retarded customers’.
