I'm sad...

[Mino]

Oh yeah, Third Tier, terrain advantages, that was ALL in the GCN version... /sarcasm.

I'm gonna actually agree with him in that FE:RD is a port of the GCN, but with more of the same stuff. What new and impressive features have been added to this entry in the series that'll keep people playing it? Tell me if it sells a million copies, ever.

 

[DarthGohan1]

60 bucks is a lot of money...

Are you saying that 10 dollars more per game is a serious price increase? No, it comes with the territory, the video game industry is getting bigger, and the console's abilities are growing. Naturally the more powerful console's games require more development than the technologically inferior Wii.

50 bucks is a lot of money
60 bucks is a lot of money too

You just said units sold means nothing 2 minutes ago... please make up your mind.

So you're admitting I'm right, or just saying that games cost a lot in general and that your comment was pointless?

Now I'm talking about a GAME's popularity.

Your point is...?

Console demand = console popularity.

Wow, Mino. Really. I don't think you're trying...

Also, do you think my PERSONAL ENJOYMENT of the game is influenced by the sales? I don't give a rat's butt if it even sells a million, as long as Intelligent Systems keeps making 'em.

Demand =/= popularity. Demand is numerical, popularity is relative. Take economics much? Popularity really isn't an economics term, though.

Yeah, I'm not saying its enjoyable for you, but this isn't about your personal enjoyment. And it's fine with me if you want to keep eating the same old concept for the next 20 iterations of Fire Emblem, seeing as I don't give a "rat's *CEN-1.0-SORD*" either.

 

[Fabioisonfire]

If less than a million people will buy the game, it doesn't make sense to continue the production of them.

 

[TwilightKing]

Mino, why are you arguing that the 360 is better, when the topic at hand is clearly about the wii and the original poster has already said that he wants a wii and has no interest in the 360 at the moment? Everyone has their own personal choice for consoles and it's obvious that he wants a wii. Both consoles are great and have their ups and downs.

Did I ever say anything to the contrary? No....

No, I'm just wondering why you continually keep going on about the 360, when Kyle has already made up his mind and knows he doesn't want one. This topic seemed to have come to a conclusion not too long ago

 

[MGMT]

aggrandizing
animosity
complete idiotic moron

Man do you have an impressive vocabulary, too bad you either murder the spelling of a word, misuse it, or manage to turn a possible insult back on yourself. Stick to small talk.

No offense but if all your going to do is bash the Wii, than go to another forum where you can worship the Xbox 360 there. If you haven't notice this is a NINTENDO forum.

If your argument is that he shouldn't have an opinion against the Wii because he's posting it on a Nintendo forum, then I think you might be the "complete idiotic moron".

Last time I checked aggrandizing was spelled like that, animosity is a feeling of of strong dislike. So I didn't use it wrong in the sentence. Also, I was just stating that it wasn't smart to bash the Wii on a Nintendo based forum and that if thats all he's going to do then he should leave.

In the Wii's case, it has both demand and popularity. And, again, who cares about either when ultimately it comes down to whether or not YOU enjoy the game/console?

It's not the same concept... you haven't even played the freakin' game. Yes, it uses PoR's engine. So? It adds a lot of new elements that FE fans can appreciate.

This topic hasn't been about Kyle since page 3.... Just because Kyle decided he wanted to get a Wii (he never even said he was thinking about a 360, I suggested it) doesn't mean we should all stop discussing things....

Last few FE games didn't sell a million, I think. They're still going.

Because Nintendo can't think of any new IPs.

And if it didn't sell a million, they aren't making enough.

Oh wow, so they're making FE games, titles with complicated and intricate storylines/themes, because they can't think of one new IP? Really now.

As in... limited production? Probably.

If it all comes down to enjoyment, why are you even bothering to argue other things? I'll go back to what I've said. I don't think the Wii experience can compete with the XBox 360 experience with XBox Live. Better titles for what I like (MULTIPLAYER and SHOOTING), better graphics, SOLID CONTROL (Wii feels way too gimmicky for me, I yearn for a good old button while playing it, which is why I'll use a controller for Brawl), far better online experience, and many many more hours of enjoyment per game.

As for RD, if all that is new is some new classes and terrain advantages (wasn't that always in FE?), no thanks. The gameplay is also too monotonous for me to play it at home on the TV, which is why I loved Fire Emblem on the GBA (remember, I got you into it?).

Why? To convince people to check out games they have no idea about. People think it's cool to bash FE because of the sub-par graphics... yet they've never played it. For some reason people enjoy bashing games they've never played. Take JJ, for instance. He said he disliked point and clicks, and yet he likes Zack and Wiki a lot now that he's played it.

As for RD, if all that is new is some new classes and terrain advantages (wasn't that always in FE?), no thanks. The gameplay is also too monotonous for me to play it at home on the TV, which is why I loved Fire Emblem on the GBA (remember, I got you into it?).

No, terrain advantage wasn't always in FE. Too monotonous? Oh, well, it definitely makes you think. I can see why FE is shunned ... because it actually makes you think, unlike mindless shooters like Halo 3 or whatever. Sure, there's "strategy" involved, but it just doesn't compare to Radiant Dawn's strategic elements. Also, yeah, I know you got me into it... your point being...?

See bolded.

It's easy to take an already established IP and create a spin of it with a new storyline.

So now FE makes you think, and shooters are mindless. Ever play BioShock? Oh, that's right you haven't, nor anything like it. I will agree there is a large degree of strategy involved in FE games, seeing as that is about all the game is, a giant game of complex chess (did I mention how much I love Advance Wars? At least it's stayed portable). But, there is a ton of strategy involved in Halo and all multiplayer games, and in this I get to interact with real people in a fast-paced environment with real-time action. It is completely different strategy, but still strategy, and I'll admit that Halo is probably the most "mindless" (your word) of popular multiplayer shooters, but play GRAW, or one of my favorites, Splinter Cell: CE, which required strategy, or you're liable to get shot, or get your neck snapped. This strategy is far more entertaining to me, not to mention realistic.

Maybe that's what I want from games, realism.
