Nothing wrong with some good ol' madden. Sure everygame is pretty much the same but with better graphics and different rosters. But that doesnt stop it from being fun.

Madden gets mind-numblingly boring after playing about 20 games. Same damn thing, over and over again. Only thing I can ever get into is francise mode.

I played in one once that EA sponsored at my dorm last year. I was so bored by the end of the second game, I couldn't stand it. I ended up just leaving. Just not dynamic enough for me.

I wonder if they will make a shoe attachment for the controller so you can actually kick the ball?

My problem with the name is that they are aiming for something that will work world wide. But I can't imagine an ad campaign that would work in the US with the name.

And while you can not look cool playing video games, there is one game that makes you look like a fag when you play it.

I guess Nintendo just wanted to cause a stir - and it did. There's a massive coverage on this and the console isn't nearly released yet. It's got the massive hype going right now, and the gamers who are saying 'I'm not paying money to something that sounds like urine' are still going to get it, and even more will pay attention to it now that it's got the publicity it currently has.

I don't see much a difference between this and Dance Dance Revolution when you go to an arcade and a kid is running in place trying to keep up with the pace.

This is just the lazy mans version because you also use your hands.

I could honestly care less about the name, and more about the content that will be on said console system. They could call it IFYBMYTGMITW, which roughly stands for "If you buy me, you're the gayest man in the world", and as long as it still had good content and choices for games I would buy it. As I bet most of you would too.

All this debate over a name is kind of ridiculous. The main idea and concept of the system hasn't changed at all, and it still has all of the great features that would have probably sold hundreds of thousands to millions of these consoles. If you don't buy something because you're going to feel immasculated by the name, then don't. I'm sure Nintendo won't miss your money that much.

Hey, who ever wants to play Para Para Paradise, knock them selves out. Not like I am going to scream homo and kick you off the machine or any thing.

But come on, if you go to a arcade where both games are present. When people are really good at DDR, the people walking by notice and say, "Wow, that is crazy." or some thing to that extent. When some one is playing Para Para Paradise really good, when people walk by they say, "That shit is gay." What ever ya know, more power to the Para Para Players I guess.
