2009 is the year of the Wii (Again)

Sadly, in spite of Microsoft and Sony's efforts, they just can't seem to keep up with the Wii' sales.

Once again, the Wii wins a year, like it did 2008 and 2007.

You speak the truth. OP lies and tries to start flame war. Amrite or amirite?

No, I'm trying to make a point.

Sales are all that matter. Period.

The devs couldn't care less about anything else (Even if they started their carreers with "good intentions")

Yeah but the PS3 and 360 are both better, so it doesn't matter.

Kinda funny, people claim the Wii is a garbage console and that it matters nothing to anyone sane this gen.... yet is sells like crack.

Lol all those games fail and most are redundant expansions simply made for the purpose of grabbin yo mun33z. The other consoles have MOAR gamez and they are BETTAR k?

Of course the Wii's sales are the highest; it does well with the majority that is the casual market.

Although sales are a major factor in a company's success, it's high-quality products that prompt consumers to actually buy more products.

Imagine if, next generation, all of Nintendo's games failed horribly, with no end in sight. Would you really be interested in their products anymore?

"Lol all those games fail and most are redundant expansions simply made for the purpose of grabbin yo mun33z. The other consoles have MOAR gamez and they are BETTAR k?"

I can't tell if you're joking.

I don't have a stake in any of the companies

Why should I care about sales, it is all about the games

I agree. TRUTH ^^^^^

It must feel good to own a console that sells well doesn't it? Whats the point of having games when it sells? :lol:

So your point is that you can have awesome fun if you're a Wii only user, and that you're in gaming heaven if you own a Wii AND a HD console? Good. That's exactly right. This generation of gaming is awesome - No platform is an exception.

The fact is, very few of Nintendo's first party titles have FAILED. I don't expect that they'll start failing any time soon either. There's a Nintendo cult out there, there has been since the 80s.

I don't think that Nintendo's going to majorly fail anytime soon, either. I was simply providing a hypothetical situation to show you that high-quality is what prompts people to buy products. Without quality, there's little encouragement.

Yea I agree, sometimes in life you just have to deal with situations. Like the games not getting the highest score in GS, thats why you're making this thread. amirite? ;)

TheElfChild

It depends on who's point of view you look at

It's like if it was a sports team

Sales represent attendance at the arena and games represent wins the team has

As long as the attendance is strong (a la 360 and PS3) who cares? We care about wins

Have fun playing with your sales then.

this is probably flame bait.... but anyway....

nobody cares that my grandparents and my sister each bought a wii for exercise. they have double the sales and four times the market, that's pretty bad. compare the size of the wii online community, it's under 10 million, the ps3 and 360 both have over 20 million. the "hd clones" are better for actual games, wii is better for keeping yourself under 300. the clones and doing other things is best for staying under 175, healthy, and social.

Well, I could care less about most of these things, as long as I enjoy the games that come out and have fun playing them, i'm happy. :D Lets go Wii!8)

I didn't know the quality of a console was based off sales. :roll:

TheElfChild

...Which... is why no third party developer has really made a really high profile game for the Wii except a few ports. ...Which is also why they sell relatively like crap. Sales are important for developers, yeah. Which is why they don't make good games for the Wii. They make them for 360/PS3/PC instead.

I think both ps3 and 360 fanboys can agree that wii is the worst console ever (for gamers).

I didnt know we judge consoles by thier sales theWii still wins even if we dont anyway:P
