Wii's exclusives outnumber other consoles by enough that even if that's the case, it still has more solid ones. 😛

Even if it had to have arthropods, a heroic stag beetle would have been preferable.

quoting myself for truth.

Eh, I think it was a great game, and I hope for more like it, actually. Playing as the spider and Scorpion was really cool, especially the way everything tied in. Had a pretty great plot for a game about bugs.

Exclusives = important and wii has the most.

A majority of which are 3rd party titles for casual gamers. That's where the Wii has gotten most of its money from, not from the 1st party exclusives. That said, the only games on there that have been worth my while for the most part are Super Mario Galaxy and Metroid Prime 3, and to a much lesser extent, Brawl.
edit: Resident Evil: Darkside Chronicles was okay too. Mario Kart Wii and Pokemon Battle Revolution were utter disappointments on the other hand.

And PC gaming ain't really my thing, so I could care less if some of the 360's or PS3's titles overlap with PC.

Xenoblade alone will be a reason for purchasing a Wii. Not only is it going to be the best Xeno game yet, but the very greatest game ever made.

I have yet to see a handheld console to rival the sheer number of consoles this device can emulate...

Amiga
Amstrad CPC
Atari 800
Atari 2600
Atari 5200
Atari 7600
Atari Lynx
Capcom CPS1
Capcom CPS2
ColecoVision
Sega Dreamcast
GBA
GBC
IntelliVision
Sega Master System
Sega Genesis
Sega CD
Nintendo 64
SNK Neo Geo
SNK Neo Geo CD
Sinclair ZX81
MSX
NES
SNES
WonderSwan
Nintendo DS
Thomson MO5
Thomson TO7
TI99
NEC PC 8801

And can play PC games like Heretic, Doom, and Quake in 60fps.

It can even run Java, MS-DOS and Windows XP!!

It can also play more video/audio formats than any other handheld console.

Yeah but when it comes to its exclusive library the DS destroys it. Its also got the far superior control scheme out of the two systems.

Yeah but when it comes to power, the PSP destroys it. Until the 3DS comes out, the DS is bottom of the barrel when compared to the PSP.
Then there's Homebrew for which the PSP is plain better.

And it's got a bigger and better screen. (Well, except for the fairly useless PSP GO)

They've both got strengths and weaknesses. Which console you like depends on which console's strengths attract you, (or just general fanboyism in some cases)

Wait until the game comes out to make such a statement.

You sure about that? I've heard people claiming Halo 3, God of War 3, Twilight Princess, Smash Bros Brawl, and Final Fantasy XIII would be the best game ever and none of them were any better than their predecessor.

I am not people.

I know things.

Xenoblade is set to possess all of the merits of the other games in the series in all things story, music and art related, as well as a fundamental quality that they lacked, and the only thing that really prevented them from being the best games out there, and that is great gameplay (as well as a strong balance between story and gameplay). I'm talking about a Xenogears or a Xenosaga with Zelda like gameplay. This is Xenoblade. Can you imagine such a game?

I can already tell that it's not going to sell well outside Asia, since the US/European general populace aren't really interested in animu or any wapanese things.. they prefer the generic multi-player FPS.

Agreed. PSP owns the handhelds. 131

But IMO, 4th an 5th Gen Powkeymawn games are reason enough to get a DS.uhuh

I can. I'll admit, it will be great, especially if it isn't as story oriented as the prior games, but it still wouldn't make it the "OMG IT'S LIEK TEH BESTEST GAEM EVAR!!!"

I smell a paid rep. uhuh

also, I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE MOVE! and I hope it is as good as it looks, and they actually make games for it worthy of its awesomeness.

Aizen is now a manta ray.

what a bold statement...for a battle of the next generation consoles forum.
