[quoteI may have played very few of those games, but they really weren't for me. That doesn't mean they didn't meet/exceed their potential.
The DS more than met its potential and the Wii motion controls are going to reach their peak with Zelda this year.
The fact that you try to say the DS didn't reach its potential is ridiculous. Even ignoring all the games you would never play like Brain Age and Nintendogs there are amazing games tha use the touchscreen and are not minigames like The World Ends with You, Soul Bubbles, Trauma Center, Scribblenaughts, Drawn to Life etc.
The DS strip mined the touchscreen concept and then blew the mountain up to get any ore they missed.
Seriously, you're telling me the fucking balance board met its potential? It's pretty much a peripheral for one game!
But thats exactly what it is and what it was sold as, a fitness peripheral for a fitness game pack in. It came with one fitness game and many more were released. The fact that some non-fitness games actually use it is a bonus.
