But that doesn't mean that the format is only good for toddlers and grandma, as Nintendo themselves consistently demonstrate through innovative releases like Wii Fit, Wii Sports, Mario Kart et al. It seems, in fact, that it is third-party game makers who are most inclined to try and cash-in on the platform's less-hardcore demographic, and this is a shame because when done properly, Wii games can really rock the boat.
Sega stalwart Yuji Naka isn't a man to pander to convention, the Japanese games industry veteran credited with programming the very first Sonic the Hedgehog game, as well as producing seminal titles like Nights into Dreams and Phantasy Star Online. More recently, he founded independent start-up Prope, who with Sega's help have crafted Let's Tap - a brand new twist on the Wii's unusual controls; a casual game, without the negative connotations. Naka-san was recently in London showing his new opus off, confirming at the same time that the game will reach Europe and America in the summer."
Brash Games writes "The Wii has been all but abandoned by core gamers for some time now, but even with its predecessor, the Wii U, just around the corner, here are 5 reasons that the Nintendo Wii is still deserving of your time and attention".
Playing video games can be one of the most enthralling and addictive pastimes, transporting you into a fantasy world and hooking you in with immersive gameplay, with the scope of game-makers limited only by their imaginations. Anything is possible. Anything.
So why on earth did someone decide to make Euro Truck Simulator?
ShortList guides you through 10 of the most boring games ever created; play these at your peril, or maybe do play them if you have insomnia.
I agree. Those two games were ZzZzZzZzZzZzZz.
La Noire was just a big tech demo for their new facial animations.
L.A Noire was a big disappointment to me. Quite repetitive, boasted one hell of a huuge nicely rendered map that was practically full of nothing to do.
Restrictive gameplay scenarios in how you approach / solve cases. The facial animations is what was amazing, but the rest was a letdown especially with the amount of little things you can do in the game.
Depends on personal preference/choice. I loved Heavy Rain. It was something new and fresh, and I'm glad I played it.

Nintendo claims they are "innovators." With the Wii, the DS and the Dsi, many believe that Nintendo has lived up to their claims. Even with these innovations on the hardware side, there is little argument that there is a lack of innovation in third-party developed software. With a few exceptions in games like Boom Blox, not many games find interesting mechanics besides the basic waggle."
