nintendo has a nice little list of exclusive games which include all mario titles and Zelda titles
think how much $$$ the 360 and PS3 are losing out on by not having those titles in their repetoire..and the conroller system on the wii is still a fun thing to experience
nintendo also has virtually the entire market on handheld systems ...
They also have a critically acclaimed version of GTA on their handheld

That's a link to the article but here's the bit of news concerning GN'R
According to longtime fan and friend of the band, state Sen., Bob Hedlund, who was at Saturday’s show, Ferrer has joined Fortus on Guns ‘N’ Roses’ summer tour of South America, and the current eight-date mini-tour of the northeast is meant to acclimate their replacements

And I still get a kick out of playing Super Mario Bros. on NES Emulators, but that doesn't mean you move on from it. Any gaming list, that doesn't include Grand Theft Auto, in 2009, are off the mark, and missing out on an enormous amount of money.
So your saying since Nintendo don't have Grand Theft Auto in their software lineup that the lineup is a failure?

If Sony would've put out the PS3, and priced that fucker at $300 bucks from the get, with the Blu-Ray, it would've put Microsoft & Nintendo out of business - for good, at least in the console market.
It actually probably would have just made a pretty big dent into Microsofts marketshare and that's it. Nintendo would still be in the game and the notion that all the games on the Wii are dumbed down shovelware is not entirely true. There are a decent ammount of good games for the system it's just they're buried under all the crap that is released for the system. I'll admit that if you want a proper gaming experience PS3 and Xbox 360 are the way to go but the Wii should not just be dismissed because of what is associated with it. Also going into the handheld market the DS fare a lot better as a traditional gaming console. It has a wide variety of hardcore games as well as casual stuff.
Also this :
the entire list of games is way targeted to children
can be easily disproved with this:
Resdient Evil 4
Resident Evil Umbrella Chronicles
Okami
Megaman 9 (yes it's kid friendly but no kid is gonna be able to last ten seconds in this game)
Call of Duty: World At War
MadWorld
No More Heroes
The House Of The Dead: Overkill
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn (not a mature game but it's not kiddy cookie cutter bullshit)
Guilty Gear XX Accent Core
Medal Of Honour Heroes 2
Scarface: The World Is Yours
The King Of Fighters Collection: The Orochi Collection
Mortal Kombat Armageddon
Disaster: Day of Crisis
Tenchu: Shadow Assasins
Dragon Quest Swords: The Masked Queen and the Tower of Mirrors
Red Steel
And I could go on. Now whilst not many of these games are necessarily "adult" none of them are directly targetted at children. In fact even Super Mario Galaxy whilst its obviously kid friendly isnt targetted directly at children and is an enjoyable experience for a gamer of any age. In fact it's ranked as the third best game of all time.

Would it be possible to do a Worst Movie of all time next with the voting being not for the film we like the most but the one we dislike the most. Could have some great matchups in there.

mediocrity doomed him.
A fantastic summary of Robin's relationship with the fans. I'll give him some credit for sticking with GN'R for all those years but when it comes down to it. He's not the MVP on this record, his interpretation of the old material was horrific and his fan interaction was more minimal than Axl.
#2277 Re: GNRevolution Madness » GnREvolution Movie Madness - Round 2, Battle 2 » 902 weeks ago
Tough one but Apocalypse Now gets my vote.
#2278 Re: Guns N' Roses » Who's DJ? » 902 weeks ago
slash was appetite. but slash was all over 4 albums. slash was already established. slash had his chance to shine with the fortune and fame in guns n roses with the public and media. what about robin? when'll robin get his chance?
Slash did interviews and talked to fans.

When the final chapter is written this console will be in third place, mainly due to the demographic responsible for the initial sales explosion growing up.
:haha::haha::haha::haha: If that happens I will eat my hat. I'm sorry but the notion that Nintendo are going to come in third at the end of this generation of consoles is laughable.
By March of this year the Wii had sold 50 Million worldwide.
Recently in the past few days Nintendo broke a US Sales Record by selling 20 million consoles in the US alone in just 31 months.
Couple their complete domination of the Home Console market with the Handheld Console market and they're currently unstoppable.
That's why the idea they're gonna come in third place and get knocked out of the industry as a hardware manufacturer is laughable. At this point for the forseeable future unless something catastrophic happens it's pretty much an impossibility.
