Splinter Cell, Red Steal, etc should really help people see the system will have games fro Everyone and for every group. Metroid, Zelda, and Crisis, etccan't hurt either.

You know, if Nintendo could truly populate their library with a variety of games including games for kids, that should help garner the market. The average age of the gamer nowadays is just the age where people have young children or are starting families. If I knew I had to buy an Xbox 360 for $400 and another $400 worth of games/accessories for myself, and then also the Wii for $250 plus another $400 worth of games/accessories, or just the Wii for that price, I would definitely choose to just have the 1 system.

Realistically, though, if you look at the PS2's ginormous library compared to GC's, I bet that overall PS2 actually has many more "kiddie" games than GC, but no one calls Sony "kiddie." It's all about image - a different marketing firm could sell the exact same Wii in a totally different way...

Jam it back in, in the dark.

How 'bout strapping a controller to each foot, then hold one in each hand, and actually kick/punch/jump/duck/block etc. to control your character. How awesome would that be? Any kind of game could work with the Wiimote; it just requires a paradigm shift...

There's nowhere I can't reach.
