Their Genesis graphics were compared against NES screenshots. They took pot shots at the monochromatic Game Boy ("Creamed spinach color!") and even pointed out every single flaw with the SNES (it was harder to program for than the Genesis, it had fewer games for it in 1992, etc.) The result of all this aggressive competition? Today, Sega has given up on the hardware business and is a Nintendo licensee. Sega used to do that sort of belittlement with their ad campaign, “Sega does what Nintendon’t”.

I'm a Nintendo fan, myself. But that doesn't mean I think the Wii is the greatest thing since sliced bread. In all honesty, the Wii isn't great, as far as the Hardware specs go. But before you condemn the Wii, consider this: What is the point of good graphics beyond a certain point? I find there to be a mindset out there that has taken prevalence and seems to think that graphics are all that is needed to make a certain game, and that if they do not like a game, then it is a 'crappy' game. I have Mario Kart Wii. Guess what, I hate that game. It's fun with people, but otherwise it's an annoying, head-desking type game for me. Does the game suck? No, I just don't like it. However, I have to agree with Chris, the Wiimote control option for SSBB is pretty unusable. But, in response to the Wii being 'inaccurate' and 'unresponsive', I have to say I have not had that problem. I just set up the sensor bar correctly, and it works fine. But then again, I'm not a fan of gore-based shmups, because I still think Goldeneye N64 is one of the best FPSes made. Frankly, I enjoy games on the Wii for the gameplay, not the number of people I can shoot and watch them scream as they're run over by a tank. Eh, the Wii is good for what it aims to be.

I have all 3 consoles and honesty I do not play my wii at all, in fact it is not even hooked up to a tv right now. I will have to agree with Chris, the wii is somewhat of a gimmick console and the technology most definately is not innovative as they used that same technology with the "power glove" which I had for NES back in 1990! The controls were not accurate then and continue to be non-precise/inaccurate now. Dont get me wrong the wii is a good console for a kid as the games are geared towards kids; but me being a 37 year old gamer (since pong!) I need the HD graphics and intense gameplay to satisfy my addictions. I would compare it to watching the SAW movies and then trying to get scared watching Scoobie Doo!
