What makes a 'good' game?

[Ultimecia]

Tales of Symphonia: Dawn of the New World plays exactly like the original Tales of Symphonia (PS2/GC), except for the monster recruiting (more like Megaten and Persona mechanic than Pokemon). House of the Dead: Overkill isn't innovative. Not all game on Wii got innovative gameplay. In fact, most of non-Nintendo games you can use both a Wii-themed controls or classic controls, for example NiGHTs.
I'm not a Nintendo fan, but I'm not a Nintendo hater either. But don't talk to me about Mario or you'll bore me to death. Killing turtles with a chubby ass and eating mushrooms? Cute for a game released in the '80s.
