Imo, nintendo suffers this curse where they make great hardware, but then for reasons unclear, nobody except Nintendo is able to leverage it. I'm willing to believe it's nintendo's fault in sharing dev resources but idk.
The wii was great. Wii sports was amazing. The Wii U was also really awesome and the wii sports equivalent, nintendo land, was really good. the asymmetric screens for multiplayer were super fun. Nobody else used it really.
- ghaff 4y agoI think both you and the parent probably hit on the main points. I think it was something of a fad and after the novelty wore off, some of the limitations became more apparent over time. And, while I played a few games quite a bit (Wii Sports, a couple of different tennis games, snowboarding) over probably about a year, the only other game I played through was World of Goo and it would probably have been just as good on my PC. Certainly after the original sports games, nothing new came along from either Nintendo or a third party that really grabbed my attention. I set it back up at one point but it never grabbed me again.
