So, I'm a big fan of Nintendo, although my father doesn't look too kindly on Nintendo. He's always telling me news about them doing stuff that risks them being kicked out of the competition. And recently, he's been trying to convert me from a Nintendo fan to an XBox 360 junkie, and my mother just got in the act!
I admit the XBox 360 does seem to have a lot of cool features than any of Nintendo's consoles, but I can't go with the XBox because I've stuck with Nintendo for so long, their characters have been very memorable to me. On the XBox, it's just random humans in war-gear that just kill everything on sight, and I can't imagine myself playing stuff like that.
Even though I told my parents that I absolutely hate FPS, and all the games I ever see for XBox is FPS, they just tell me that I'm wrong, and there are also some racing games, (Which I'm not entirely into.) Sci-Fi themed games and even platformers that relate to Mario, which I have NEVER seen in my life besides Banjo-Kazooie: Nuts 'n' Bolts. And even if I do want to, I would always get very paranoid because the XBox is in our living room, and I always feel very paranoid when I'm being watched playing games.
Another thing about the XBox 360, is that it's more of an adult console. All I ever see for it is 15 and 18 rated games. And pretty much every 15 and 18 rated game is an FPS. Another reason I don't want to do it is because I might get carried away and become a CoD fanatic and end up like all the chavs at my school, who constantly talk about CoD non-stop.
I really don't want to leave Nintendo, which I've been in love with since I was about 6-7, just for some other console that looks like it has better graphics, better online content, totally unfamiliar characters, etc. I know most of you will tell me to just give in just because you play XBox, but I want your honest opinion. After explaining everything I said in this post, should I tell my parents there's no way, or should I just give in straight away?
