When someone states that they got owned, you can stop the argument.

I think where it really hurts is replay.
happily, metroid prime games have always had a hard difficulty setting, and that REALLY does up the ante

None less than how people respond when you see "Halo sucks" posts.

I'm still curious what people consider "bad games" he has created. Surely Wii Sports is not on the list. You'd be an idiot if you had it on a list. It sold MILLIONS of Wiis. We ALL wanted to play WiiSports when the Wii was advertised at E3 2006 (RIP the last good year of E3). There was a 5 HOUR line at E3 to play it. It got mediocre reviews, yes, but many of those people who gave it lower scores because of whatever reason they did found themselves probably still playing it months later, not because it was the only good title on Wii, but because it fills a niche.

You have to be an invalid (minus the people who hurt TVs/animals/themselves/etc playing it) to not be able to play WiiSports. It's the ULTIMATE party game for almost anyone (minus LAN party junkies :$)

SMG isn't out yet. WiiFit is a game that I believe will fit another niche. I'm tempted to buy it during the Winter lull if some of the other games don't live up to the hype (Mass Effect, Super Smash Brothers Brawl, etc. - the later releases)

Going through the list there are quite a few I haven't played (a few I know were Japan only games)

I like easy games, I play to have fun, I get enough headache at school.

Question: What exactly does a Producer do in the development process?

Probably the same thing a movie producer does, so the role varies.

Way to go, Nintendo.

I remember when your games were actually both fun and difficult because the challenge was there to keep going. Oh, how times have changed. The Wii has taken the company that invented modern gaming and become a company that tries to appeal to casuals while ignoring their core audience.

Or maybe he ment easy as in "not having to learn 30+ different button combo to do different moves yet still challenging"?

I personally hate the games where I need to spend more than 10 min per tutorial level (often restarting it for failing to reach the goal in time) just to learn how to run, jump, turn around, etc...
