Wii Virtual Arcade

[Chojin]

And here's how I think the console wars will pan out!

NORTH AMERIKA.

The Wii will be really awesome, but only to me and a few other people . Despite how awesome it will make baseball games and the virtual console, it'll mostly be picked up by hardcore enthusiasts and little kids, with most of the public deeming it too WEIRD and GIMMICKY. The only thing I can really see upsetting that pattern is if Red Steel controls like a dream, then Wii would get FPS ports out the ass. But then again, Halo is pretty much here to stay no matter how bad the 3rd game is, so you can't count on Nintendo to be the best FPS console no matter what ;<

XBox 360 is already popular and will continue to 'whup up' as it's already nabbed the mainstream US audience. It'll win the US console wars simply because it's here, it's reasonably priced, it's non-threatening, and it has easy and great online play.

Playstation 3 will be received like the Neo Geo was back in the 80s, with one kid per neighborhood having one and inviting everyone over to watch him play it. Then, everyone else will go back home and talk about how gay he is on XBox live.

JAPAN.

Nintendo Wii will be embraced and sexed up by the socially damaged Japanese and will hands down win the console war in Japan. It'll also receive hundreds of retarded Japanese games about spanking women in public and following traffic signs or something. But since it's region-free, I'll get to import all of those and masturbate.

Xbox 360 will be named an enemy of the state by the emperor, who will stage a burning in EFFIGY. Bill Gates will respond by packaging anthrax with Japanese copies of Windows Vista.

Playstation 3 will receive lots of hardcore titles that are really pretty and will definitely never show up here. All of them will be epic tales of grandeur and involve a Blitzball minigame. It'll do pretty ok, coming in #2.
