What the Heck Is game consoles from the 80s?
blog Oct 18, 2022
You can find retro games that are designed to be played on the go, but that is not the goal. The goal is to play them, and make them feel good when you do. That is the mark of a great game.
I don’t know about you, but I have a hard time not taking my handhelds off the shelf and playing with them. It’s like the Wii is still made by Sony, you can still get it for $99.99 and it runs so damn well. I love my PS2, and for years my Wii was my primary game console, but the Vita is doing just fine too. I just don’t see myself playing games on those things.
I think consoles are pretty much the best thing to come out of the late 80’s, but I still think it is a shame that the majority of games being released today are actually old games. Just because Nintendo put out a couple of games for the Wii and the DS, that doesnt mean that game is going to be the best ever. The best games should just come out every 6 months and be a blast to play.
The thing I find most frustrating with consoles is that they are so easy to pick up. They are so cheap and easy for kids to play with, and the fact that they are so easy to get is a big factor in why so many people buy them. I feel like when people say Nintendo is only making games for the Nintendo Wii and DS, well that actually means that they have no plans to release games for other consoles. Its like saying Apple is only making products that are for the iPod.
My feeling is that Nintendo is making all their games for the Wii and DS. They just don’t have any plans to release anything for other consoles. For example, Super Mario Galaxy will be released for the Wii, but it won’t be for the DS. The only console that will be releasing games from Nintendo is the next-gen Wii U, which is slated for a September 2013 release date.
I know you’ll love this, because there’s just so much about Nintendo that is really neat and appealing. But for now, if you’re looking for a console that you can’t live without, there is no better choice than the Wii. You’ll be able to play Wii’s games, or get them for free, or just hang out with your friends in your living room.
As they say in the movie, “Nintendo is, like, the world’s worst console company.” But really, it goes for the whole company. Nintendo made games that were so bad that even the most ardent fans of the company will find it impossible to play them in any but the most extreme environments. The NES, SNES, and N64 all had their quirks, but it doesn’t make them any less fun to play.
To sum up, the Wii is a fantastic console with a great selection of top-tier games. But it doesnt have the same kind of longevity as its peers. Because it is so new and so new, it has to settle for being one of the best games consoles ever made. This is why the Wii feels like the most fun to play in. Because it takes about 20 minutes to start playing, but only takes about 10 minutes to be done.
Yeah the Wii is the first console I’ve played for a year and a half. But it’s also the first console I’ve had to spend a lot of time with. It feels like the most fun I’ve had playing games for a long time. And yet the games that I’ve played are all in such a variety of genres. From platformer to shoot-em-up to RPG to strategy, it’s all here.
The only reason I spend hours on a PS2 is because I bought it with the intention of playing the next X-Men movie. But Ive never bought one again until I saw X-Men: Days of Future Past. The first time I played X-Men: Days of Future Past, I felt like I was playing the first X-Men movie. Its the same with all of the games Ive played.
