Yep:
- 480p
- Crappy Games for the most part, with only a couple of good ones.
- Lack of Games
- WiiRemote that doesn't work that well for a lot of games.
- Price drop of the 360.
- Boring graphics
- Horrid Online
- And the final, the fad that just died!!!

Does this help you sleep at night?Hey, he asked, I answered.
Can't take the heat, stay out of the kitchen!!!
Meh, decent points but you forget that this system is aimed mostly towards casuals. Casuals don't know/care about this stuff, if they see the hyped Wii on a store shelf for $250, they'll buy it. Even the price drop of the 360 can't compare with the already low price of the Wii. Remember that casuals don't know how much more powerful the 360 is...These are the same people that spend $50 on a AC iPod charger, when they could easily make one for less than $3.And your completely right. Cheap price for cheap console, uninformed casuals and the few Nintendo hardcores are going to keep the Wii up on sales for 2007.
But bottom line, the things I mentioned are gonna start to eat at the great "Wii" craze. It's already happening in Japan, and soon in America. Even casuals are gonna get somewhat informed of that rather lack luster games and visuals. It's just a matter of time, then it's all downhill from there.
The Wii, great off the gate, but no stamina.
crystal ball again?? the craze is wearing off in japan? then is it still the highest sell console in japan by a long shotNo crystal ball here, just the latest figures of Wii sales figures in Japan, yes, still sellling the best out of the 3 consoles, but not doing near as well or expected from previous sales figures.
This will happen in America also, but too be expected. And really, Ford Pinto's sold better than Porsches, price is the main reason right now, but utimately the quality of the Pinto killed it off just like it will for the Wii. Underpowered and a console that plays basically the same games as it has always has, nothing new besides the over rated controller that really only plays few game good, and the other majority of games it is rather frustrating and distracting.
