It has family friendly games that little kids can play and have fun with. I dont here a lot of those games from the compation of it, know do you. And when it comes down to it, we are all giving biased opinions. But the sales do not lie. The wii is not as in depth with graphics and memory as the other systems but it does ofer, as I have said, a family friendly environment. And plenty of fun games not M. Thats the only reason I dont have an xbox. Cause most of the games for it are M and I cant play M games because of my parents.

That is so true. I have a 2 year old nephew who comes over alot and I can't play my xbox while he is here cause I have games like Gears of War and Fallout 3. And I don't want his little brain warped by those images in the M games. That's what is great about the wii, games on it I like to play that want warp the little one's mind.

And I apologize to anyone else I may have offended while responding to Fox's comments. It just ticked me off that he was trying to put off his opinion as fact when it was not. He has a right to opinion but to push it as fact when it's not. So once again anyone I offended I apologize.

(surprised this wasn't locked)--
but yah, tricourage brings up the ULTIMATE reason why Nintendo won't fail, fall, flop, or fold--FAMILY-BASED games.
And the fact that 20+ years ago the kids playing SMB, Zelda, and the other games on their NES are STILL fans of the systems, company, and games.(for the most part)

And I don't see any number of reasons WHY that Nintendo would risk completely bottoming-out their fanbase, the "fan boys", or the die-hard supporters, ALL for a few "new" things that MAY/MAY NOT bring in a few more dollars

I don't reckon that will happen, especially since Nintendo is making a lot of money by making great games and consoles.

Heck No! I Like To Own Nintendo Consoles That Way They Can Make Game Systems To Fit Their Game Ideas.
