#7339 wii u to hardcore for me?

Posted by MagmaBeatles on 15 June 2011 - 08:05 PM

The term "hardcore" has lost its meaning over the years.  A hardcore gamer is someone who puts a lot of their time into games.  Playing them, researching info about them, you name it.  They generally have a wide knowledge of games.  It is NOT someone who just sits there and plays CoD online all of the time.  

A hardcore game can be anything that isn't a family/party game.  So yes, games like Super Mario Bros., Pikmin and Donkey Kong are all hardcore games.  A game doesn't have to have a lot of blood and violence to be hardcore, it just has to be a game that takes a lot of skill, is really challenging and isn't just a one-time thing.  

So if you aren't into the games that you mentioned, that doesn't mean you don't like hardcore games.  It just means you aren't into those sorts of games.  

Anyways, I'm sure there'll be some casual games on the Wii U like Wii U sports and Wii U play.

My Goodness, how do you afford games for them? And how do you find enough time to play them all? That's ridiculous!


Haha, I don't play most of them anymore.  I mean, I've had my older systems for a long time.  I only buy games for newer systems nowadays, seeing as I've played a lot of the older games already.

All I can think of is how easier it'll be to play RTS games on consoles now.  Seeing as you can see the touch screen as a mouse of sorts.
