And I am a fan of racing games, but most racing games are not amazing. What keeps me a fan is the hopes and fantasizing about amazing racing games that do not actually exist. Because whenever I play a racing game, I always notice something glaringly wrong with it.
Why the hell do you even play video games then? What's the point if you always point out the few wrong things and always want a perfect game? There is no such thing as a perfect game and there never will be. Not even BoTW is perfect. The durability system is FAR from it.

I did not get a feeling of hype concerning BoTW, the difference is artisan-ship vs. art-ship. An artisan piece of bread you eat and it should taste good, that you expect. But you do not expect to be blown out of the water or knocked your socks off by it.

A game that I consider "blown out of the water" or "knocked your socks off" would be Time Crisis II. It is truly a masterpiece.
A movie that I consider "blown out of the water" or "knocked your socks off" is Star Wars 4. It is truly a masterpiece.

But the amount of geniuses allowed to roam freely in the industry is very few. So I don't expect much but I keep my hopes high.
We were very lucky to have a game like Mario Kart 64, which was truly the work of a small team of artists, as it only took about a very small team of about a dozen to create that game. Especially when it was based on the original Super Mario Kart, which was an inferior game compared to F-Zero.
For now, what I expect are GTA's, artisan games without much artistic sublimeness...fun for a few days kind of games. But I will be waiting for a certain game to capture the spirit and knock-my-socks-off kind of games.
R. Racing started to do this to me, with the bizzarre and sublime music it had, but it quickly lost steam, and I also started to discover that the physics were on the unrealistic side of the spectrum (though superior in realism to Need for Speed.)

Why are you still talking?
That is a very rude thing to say.

Have you even played BOTW? It is one of the most beautiful games I've ever played, and a masterpiece.

I never had any inclination to play it, since I never had any feeling of hype concerning the game.
What are your thoughts of Super Mario Galaxy 2?

That is a bit of a story. I loved SMG 1 and played it a lot when it came out. I did not own a Wii when SMG2 came out due to life events at the time. I have a couple of times tried it on vWii, but it did not hold my interest for long. Not saying it is bad, I don't think I really gave it a chance because I was really into other games at the time.

You have NO taste in games WHATSOEVER

However, a slight taste in movies

I'm going to give it straight to you. You over criticize games. Just saying

Was SMG2 significantly different from SMG1? I did not play SMG1 for very long.

What movies do you think are so much better than Star Wars 4?

And why do you insult the great name of Time Crisis II? It was a great game, except for the final boss battle which was kind of lame.
Again, it is a single player game, with no bonus modes has no replay value, and I judge it accordingly.
I liked Metroid Prime 1, even though it was a single player game, with no bonus modes, but it was very sublime as a single-experience.
 
Because it's not a good game. Also, it's a PS2 game. Not a Wii game :P
We were defining what great games were, in order to compare wii games and actual great games.

"Because it's not a good game" is not a valid argument.
Try to think about this deeply and give a well-reasoned thesis.

It felt about the same for me, but I played 1 & 2 years apart and also only played the 2nd for a few min.

I don't think I felt like using the Wiimote at the time either.
