    They need to have that "Pimp-slap" game for the Wii.

    Proof that nintendo is awesome: they release games that can cause physical harm to the user, and people still don't stop playing.

    I keep getting my arm sore from bowling on wii sports.

    Anyone else remember getting open sores on your palm from spinning the control stick for minigames in Mario Party on N64?

    They need a Mario Party for wii. Wario Ware is sort of similar but really the first couple Mario Party games were really something special.

    I got so many blisters, until I realized that every Mario Party after about the 4th one was the same game.

    I heard something about them delaying Mario Party for the Wii.

    Yeah I only bought #1 and #2. The original Mario Party was so fucking good though. Really that is one of the ultimate multiplayer games. My cousins, my friends, and I used to play it for hours on end. The main game was fun, but you could also have a great time pre-selecting your minigames.

    I'm surprised sales didn't suffer from the racist commercials they advertised it with.

    Well, not that surprised.

    No, those games are just shallow. I've got games that I still play that I've had for years. Most console games just entertain you long enough to play through the way-too-short campaign one time, then you get bored and quit.
