Spoken like a true wiitard. It IS possible to have eyecandy AND gameplay. And i dont concider waggle gameplay, nor do I concider it exersize.

I donÂ´t like the Wii, iÂ´d rather have a PS3 or an XBOX...

There's a reason why I'm replaying GameBoy classics and enjoying it.
Gameplay so strong that it doesnt need any flashy graphics.
Btw, anyone noticed how modern games tend to offer a wall of text right in the beginning, like, trying hard to build up a story with a huge amount of ridiculous dialogue. Takes ages to get into the whole playing part, and when you get to it, you're forced to go trhu a very annoying tutorial that describes the simplest things EVER.

YEAH! TRUE, LOL!

Modern console games = overrated. I got my share of CurrentGen gaming in two days during UppCon. It bores me now.

I saw someone mentioning DKR for the n64 and yes, that's gotten a few spins on an emulator too... sadly, I no longer have my N64

And of course, Mario Party, Paper Mario, SMB3 on teh NES, and few GBC/A games like Zelda

I'm a big fan of the old DOS games myself. Possibly my favourite being either Phantasmagoria or Imperium Galactica.

I'm also a retro gamer; I have an Atari 7800 and a Sinclair Spectrum, which I'm swapping for an Amiga A600. I used to have a Commodore 64, too. We also have a SNES which we've had from new (I can even remember guying it!) along with a PS1 and N64.

I like to play all the old Megaman games, and the Final Fantasy games too.

My favourite CPU of all time, MOS 6502. 'Nuff said.

Also loved my (dad's) Acorn Archimedes...;010
