If wii truly had a blockbuster game like halo, it'll put them over the top during this generation of consoles.
I’m telling you, Metroid Prime 3 will redefine the first person shooter/adventure.
Point and fire, one to one movements for character interactions... etc etc etc.
The sitting in the dark mashing buttons and pushing analog sticks is over... it just cannot compete to the interactive experience.
My entire life I’ve heard “virtual reality” is coming... and Wii is the closest thing you can find in terms of a mass market product in the home.
With movements of controllers in 3 dementional space controlling game movements and actions, no button mashing gamepad will ever be enough to compete again.
The Gamepad type of controller is on its way to being the Mattel Electronics football of the future of video games... it was cool and worked well for its time, but other than retro nastalgia, it will never be acceptable as an input device again.
This is seriously going to interfere with my gun and ammo collection (again).
My last X-Box craze (X-box and new Sony TV) cost me about $900, which is about the cost of a new AR-15 or a new suppressor.
