I agree with Miglaugh. Too many buttons for the masses = people not playing those games. ie PC games. Sad

This is just as the Wii is designed for people who don't know or want to know what all of the buttons of a regular controller do. (Substituted with hand motions). Keyboard and mouse are substituted with a only a handful of buttons, meaning things in some games need to be cut out.

Consoles have alway had the nature of being simple dumbass that's their key selling feature and always has been. A Keyboard and mouse is not simple but as I said a while back, they were both coming. But then I don't know what I am talking about apparently?!?! Pfff. You are a whiner, so there is no arguement there.

Wii is different and fun actually. I plan to get one of those too. I have to credit Nintendo for always having something that attracts the masses. They've managed to keep themselves afloat despite the popularity of Xbox and PS.
