They took this from you
>>743575578Motion controls were kino
it was shit even back then
Who did?
you can still have a gay gyro party with Sw1 and 2. Dunno what youre bitching about.
>You used to be able to sit in a room with a woman sweating and offgassing for your entertainmentLIBERALS
Honestly, that was another era. I don't even think what would replace that sorta of "fuck idk what to do in a house party, fuck it just bust the wii up". It's the the best ice breaker ever.
>>743575948>>743575578where are they now?
For me, it was guitar hero
To be fair the instant Obama became dictator of America fitness levels were reduced to nil and motorized scooters became the norm. In fact to this day if you aren't bound to a scooter for your movement you will be called a Human, a portmanteau of Hubris and Man.

>>743575984Meta Quest 3 and Beat Saber have been the Wii of the current year in my friend groups.
>>743575578How were early 2000s women in bed? I'm 34 now but I was a fucking dweeb until like 24 and then I started turbofucking but never experiences early-mid 2000s women. They all dressed so mid and bland compared to now but how were they in the sack?
>>743576161Eh....it's much less accessible, harder to setup, can you even do coop in it? Also it's sorta nasty with the heavy sweaty VR set. Plus you sorta need buy in and everyone now a days has some sort of motion sickness. almost everyone knew what a fucking wii was. It's like pokemon man.
>>743576325Oh noooooo inviting women over to get sweaty and then lie down on your bed because VR made them sick
>>743575578you never had that
>>743576052
>>743575984Fond memories of guitar hero and Wii Sports uniting the entire dorm floor. Girls walking by and would stop to play a round or 2 and pregame. Truly peak opportunity to meet people and go out together to some random house party.
>>743576325There is no setting up. Just boot the headset and select game. Then the player just puts it into their face and picks a song. After playing it for a while you give it to the next player. We chase high scores.

>>743576570That's what you get for perving on your mom's friend's ass, freak.
>>743575578bitches loved the wii. can confirm
Foids ruined games
>>743576592The lady in the mint green tank top is non binary, you just wouldn't know it because their back is turned to the camera.
Anybody old enough to remember paeties having a youtube pc where a bunch of people gathered around to watch videos? Time flies
I dont feel bad for zoomers who didnt get to experience this because they are annoying faggots
>>743576798fake and gay non binary wasnt invented back them
I remember on Thanksgiving my whole fat family gathered around to play wii bowling after dinner. Of course my uncle launched the fucking wiimote at the tv classic. It was one of those huge beast crt tvs though so no damage. Just the wiimote batteries and back cover went flying and we had a big laugh.
>>743576837we know you don't, because your generation is the reason the party's over
I want to go back so fucking bad bros... just one more time.
>>743576995>cant take responsibility for fault of their own heh, typical zoomie
>>743576562This has to be Europe or Australia. I never met anybody growing up in the 90s/00s who listened to Oasis. They got virtually no commercial radio play in the States. And by the time the nu metal fad hit in the late 90s, they were non-existent on MTV. Mainstream rock music in the 90s and early 00s was completely dominated by grunge, pop-punk and nu-metal. Blur and The Verve were probably the only Britpop bands that I remember getting any play here.
>>743577052>This has to be Europe or Australia. No I was autistic enough to check the beer, it's a "Miller Chill"
>>743576995>>743576837Don't be stupid we're all suffering under the same conditions.
>>743577114Sick, should've checked the image
they didn't, nintendo did. Nintendo tried to ride the hype of the wii by releasing a new system titled like an accessory, with absurd pricing and technical requirements, a gimmick that didn't really work how they advertised it (particularly because they desigend it for jap paper houses, any house with walls thicker than printer paper blocked signal from the fuckass tablet).Just a mess. Nintendo fucked it forever. Switch is a feeble attempt at recapturing the magic of the wii. It's a fine enough system 10 years on, but it's launch was also just a pale imitation of the wii hype.
>>743575578>/v/ is so filled to the brim with failed normalfags that everyone is now nostalgic for dudebros and stacies playing wii sports and getting drunkAll of you should kill yourselves.
>>743577220What were you doing while I was playing Guitar Hero with friends?
>>743577306I was jerking off between sessions of reading School Days and Muv-Luv.

>>743575578took what? casualized slop made for mass appeal? if anything that has accelerated during the 2010s and 2020s.
>>743577220i think the reason we romanticize this era is because gaming felt simpler back then. hell, human interaction felt simpler. while online gaming was obviously a thing, the idea of gathering in a room and doing locals hadnt died out yet. playing shit like wii sports and smash at parties or gatherings was still the best way to game because it was more intimate. more personal.talking to people was easy. go to a party, a bar, or talk on xbox live. MSN if you used that. you could make friends just by having similar taste in games. gamers, contrary to the stereotype, were social creatures and really just wanted more people to play Halo or Guitar Hero with. the mid-late 2000s was something that cant be replicated. we will never go back to that because our culture and attitudes at the time were so specific.
This shit isn't gone, people just play Fortnite instead.>inb4 "what about muh hangouts with people"Yeah they still do that, you're just not invited and they play something else instead, like pool or poker.
>>743576562what makes you think theyre american?
>>743577220This site has been nothing but, failed normalfags ever since /b/ got big and 90% of the supposed misfits were nothing but pathetic attention whores. Only boards like /jp/ were filled with legitimate losers.
It still exists
>>743577721>i think the reason we romanticize this era is because gaming felt simpler back then.Because you were a child.>hell, human interaction felt simpler. Because you were a child.>while online gaming was obviously a thing, the idea of gathering in a room and doing locals hadnt died out yet.It was the same generation. The Wii was antiquated and proceeded to die off specifically because it focused so heavily on local multiplayer when both the PS3 and 360 had fleshed out multiplayer services, and all of their most popular games were online multiplayer titles.>talking to people was easy. go to a party, a barThis still happens.>you could make friends just by having similar taste in games. gamers, contrary to the stereotype, were social creatures and really just wanted more people to play Halo or Guitar Hero with.You sound like a rancid faggot.>the mid-late 2000s was something that cant be replicated.Anyone who romanticizes them was a child. It was one of the single worst periods of time to be out of school and not a baby boomer second only to right now.
>all the retarded Goymerican millennials dont know that zoomer and gen alphas are still going to LAN parties in europe, especially here in scandinavialmao you guys are so clueless. my gen alpha cousin was literally at a LAN party this weekend and sent me videos of them gaming with Freestyler blasting. theres still massive local LAN parties hosted at school gymnasiums every year too.

>>743578163Can you blame them? They were busy getting raped by niggers
>>743575578True. The Wii era was the only time that everyone in my family played video games. Grandparents, uncles, cousins, siblings, we would play Wii together all the time. This didn’t carry over to the Switch. My family stopped being interested.
>>743577871>Anyone who romanticizes them was a child.I'm 48. Everything that person you tried to nitpick said was correct
>>743583086Clearly he's wrong since you're 48 and still posting here.

>>743575578I always hated wii motion controls. I tried hard as hell to like it when it came out because I had the console and a bunch of games, but it was garbage. It's funny because in hindsight the wii-u would have been much more up my alley, but I avoided it because fuck the wii and fuck motion controllers.
>>743576592i have never even seen a truly diverse friend group. its a myth
>>743577871we are living in a time where every awkward interaction or slip up can be recorded and posted online for the amusement of normalfags, where the internet (which is on the brink of age restriction) has been completely overtaken by corporations and drained of all its soul and retarded millennials want you to believe there's nothing to be nostalgic for.
>>743577738>gen z getting together to play pool or poker.lol who are you trying to fool? Zoomies spend most of their time making youtube videos in their car about how lonely and miserable they are.

>>743577220I would bet money that you're not even old enough to remember what this site was like before moot left. Spare us your faggoty platitudes about normalfags and dudebros. You're one of them and you're pretending you're not because you want to be special.

>>743587079So I was right then. You have absolutely no idea what you're talking about.
>>743575578normies really loved that trash. I know many people that still play Wii and that's the only console they have ever owned.
>>743575578No, fuck you, wagglan sucked and has always sucked.

>>743576161>>743576545This sounds so lame. I tried VR and it's very fun but I don't understand how you could use it in a social setting like you're describing.So everyone just stares at one person as they flail their arms around randomly?

>>743585589Hyperbole is the tool of the tiny penis.
>>743576009Probably became fat hyper liberals
>>743592426You can cast it to the TV so everyone can see them doing good or bad, and then it's exactly like the Wii sports you're nostalgiafagging over
I miss Lan parties or just going over to a friends house to just play games together or just watch eachother play games.This era of ultra convenience where nobody has to leave their house anymore is lame.
>>743575803more like complete dog shit making 90% of the Wii library absolute garbage, but sure, let's refer to dog shit as "kino" since you zoomers have absolute shit taste in media.
>>743575578>wearing shoes indoors
>>743575578Focus on online is paradoxically killing video games. New games coming out used to be a pretense to get together and play them, now everything has its own demographic bubble and games have communities unto themselves rather than said communities springing up reflective of where people actually live. Even how you're expected to engage with the media in itself is a part of the marketing machine. Getting together in a group just to play a single-player game, maybe cycling turns or even mostly spectating, is probably weird now, but doing the exact same thing over the internet with people you don't even know is normal.
>>743595898americans wear shoes on their beds
>>743577721>hell, human interaction felt simpler.Welcome to adulthood. Where mandated schooling is no longer enforced and you actually need to put effort into staying social. You may be able to keep some skills up at work but HR police and eye glance rape will probably keep you from making real connections. Arcades were dead then as they were now. The social gatherings you mention still occur at colleges or at a comic shop. Hell its even easier in some regards as the internet makes it possible to coordinate nerds like you to meet.Parties, bars, concerts and more are still happening. Maybe you just didn't realize you aren't as extroverted or putting in effort to begin with?
>>743575578Unironically how do I cope with the fact that we probably will never have a society that allows for this kind of social interaction without it feeling forced? As a 25 year old, I feel like the only thing people can do is cope like it wasn't better back thenThere are a lot of causes for asocial society and I think the fact that anyone can access the internet anywhere they go is probably the main culprit.
>>743596718yeah man you really showed him what a loser he is with your point-by-point criticism of that person you never met because he acknowledged a widely accepted truth, real winner maneuver
I said the Wii was a fad that entire generation, feels good to be right.
OP here. Just wanna say the pics were all AI-generated. You felt "nostalgic" for pictures that doesnt even existThat is all. Have a wonderful day gents
