Why can't we have a Video Games board?

I like General Chat, but I think a games board would be nice, as it would clear the GC of DS, 360, and PS3 topics, and the Wii board could combine with it.

Comments?

Signatures?

Wasn't this already discussed, and didn't we already say the boards we have now are fine? I'm inclined to agree.

Don't we use the General Chat for VG discussion?

After all, the Wii forum won't be up forever; Just while the Wii is "new" which it won't be soon.

This discussion has caused me to wonder: Is there a set date for the Wii board to be taken down? It's not that I want it down or anything; I don't care. But I'm just wondering where the line will be drawn.

Will it be taken down sometime after Mario Galaxy and/or Brawl come out?

No, but I imagine by the middle of next year it'll definitely be archived away while active threads are moved here, or something.

The wii was new... like almosed a year ago.. if the discussion was going to go it would be gone...

I say it should be changed to VG discussion, and General chat left to General Gaming news(like Such and such company is going under), Real News, Personal Topics, introductories and forum based news Ect.

Well, where do we draw the line when it comes to video games in Video Game Discussion then? Wouldn't this defeat the purpose of the Wifi/Online Gaming forum, since that involves video games too?

Wifi online gaming is for Organizing online games and Various codes/Tags to connect to each other.

Discussion as in what happened in a game, when a certain online meet should happen.

EDIT: Hell Wifi and Online gaming could be a subforum.

Wii Discussion should be turned into Gaming Boards or something.
Or not.

Until there comes a drop in the awesomeness of the Wii, I don't see Wii Discussion going anywhere anytime soon. :3

I wouldnt mind the liquidisation of Wii gaming and Wifi gaming into just Gaming.
It would be cool.

imo it wouldn't be a bad idea to separate the "my dog died" / "this actor died" / "new batman trailer!!!!!!!!" / "new video game released" / "big news" / "funny news" threads as they are fundamentally different

Online Gaming IS WiFi.....

So, I agree. We need to make a VG board, for people who play it by them self, not online. There are a lot of games that don't go online fro DS, 360, and so on...

Basically, bring down the Wii board. It can fit somewhere into the VG board.
