[QUOTE="OGTiago"][QUOTE="dracula_16"]What makes you think Wiifit will sell well? That white board is probably going to be expensive.beerm_basic

America. No offence.

dont worry, jealousy doesnt offend me...its flattering

jealous of americans what the...

i would go into my dislike for america but would get banned etc

but again yea those 4 titles are THE games people will be buying lots of...brawl and galaxy are the games to buy for xmas this year on the wii (yes theres others but these are the main 2)

The anti-American peopl are funny, so let me see, you want to tell me that you dislike Americans for some reasons, but i bet you cant come up with a reason that makes americans any worse than you who generealizes 300 million people+ as a group you dislike....unless of course uve met every american in the world and can give me a reason why u hate each one individually

Generalized Hate = Pathetic

Anyway to the topic, I really hope that isnt all the Wiis got to defend itself cause while i cant wait for smash and galaxy (wiifit not so much) it wouldnt be worth the 250 dollars it cost

I'll be too busy playing about a dozen other games on the 360 and blowing away noobs on XBL. You know, that online service that costs money but DOESN'T suck?

I'm speaking of the sales race this generation.

The Wii is unstoppable as it is... once these games are released its lights out for 360 and PS3 and everybody knows it,

it's just that some refuse to accept it.

legol1

it seem sheep dont have a next gen system and they refuse to accept it !

hmm....last time I checked ps2 was the graphically the graphically inferior console and yet it sold the most systems by far and supplied games to the casual crowd, while also delivering some great games through it's lifetime.

Funny, this is sounding a lot like the same formula that is making the Wii a success.

Mario? Brawl? Kart?Wiifit? :lol:

I thought this was a joke topic until I noticed it was jedigemini.

jedigemini

WiiFit will sell more Wii's than Brawl, Galaxy and Mario Kart combined.

This reminds me of that time that Cows laughed at Nintendogs before it was released and then it essentially went on to win the DS the portable war.

I guess we'll see. There's really no point to this though, if all of these games belly-flop into a pool of mediocrity, you'll just feed us some BS like you did with MP3 above.

First it's "MP3 guaranteed GOTY AAAA", it doesn't happen and you want to be diplomatic: "Well uh, you see, Metroid traditionally hasn't been a system seller, and uhhh..."

Anyway I'm out this piece, if I read too much more of this I will want to smack an infant. In honor of your daily "face it" threads (get a new tagline), I'm going to give you some face it's.

Face it, if you could afford one or two of the other systems, you would buy them.

Face it, you spend all of your time in here trying to convince yourself and others that the Wii is a real console, rather than playing the handful of decent games available to you.

Face it, the Wii is last-gen technology with a fancy new controller.

Face it, it doesn't move gaming forward in any significant way.

Face it, most games would be better suited with a traditional controller, but Nintendo has painted themselves into a corner.

Face it, lack of online play is a big no-no in this, the 7th generation of consoles.

Face it, you've never actually played the other consoles, except begrudgingly at friends houses, and your jealousy was so overpowering that you couldn't even enjoy what you were playing.

Face it, when casuals get over their Wii, they're going to stop spending money on it, and Nintendo will dry up, as they always do.

Face it, those graphics are mediocre now, give it two years and people are really going to be tired of them.

Face it, once 360 and PS3 come down to more casual friendly prices, Wiiners will buy one. Just because they bought a Wii doesn't mean they are done buying. You act as if every Wiiner is a devoted lifelong Nintendo fanboy and once their money is down they are part of your righteous cause.

Face it, the Wii's budget price is the only reason it's selling.

Face it, there's no way anyone will actually play Wiifit more than three times. They may buy it out of my-ass-is-fat guilt, but in fat, lazy America it will not do anywhere near as well as it will in Japan.

Face it, if I'm wrong about any of these claims, I can weasel out of it, just like you do.

there something you not understand with the ps2, 3rd party dev have made a lot of money with it,there not a lot of money to make with the wii its a nintendo thing and nintendo target the non gamer it is why you dont see any race simulator like forza2 ,and its lack of power made pc 360 multiplat imposible unlike the ps2 geting every popular game like gta and resident evil, just look the multiplat you get on the wii look like ps2 game !

Think about it.

Last time around the graphical gap was extremely slight. God of War 2 looks pretty much on par with Butcher Bay or Res Evil 4. Debate all you want, but there isn't a huge gap between them.

This time around the graphical gap is so enormous that the Wii can't even receive ports of PS3 and 360 games. They need to develop Wii games separately because the technology is so outdated.

There you have it.

Substitute "Wii" for Gamecube, and 360 and PS3 with Xbox and PS2, and you got the sheepboy argument for last gen (circa 2001)

How did that turn out?

I guess the most important difference is that the Wii is already beating the ever loving hell out of the 360 and PS3 in sales while the GC was lagging behind all generation long.

Actually, at one point, the GC was about 1.8 million over Xbox. But once it blew its load with SMS, LoZ:WW, MP, and SSB:M, it was all downhill.

What's next after the games you just mentioned?

...and this generation the 360 was 6 million ahead of the Wii, which has stomped the 360's year head start in mere months without very much in the way of software. Don't even try to compare the two. You're deluding yourself if you think MS stands any kind of chance this generation against Nintendo.

"You're deluding yourself if you think Microsoft's Xbox stands any kind of chance this generation against Nintendo's Gamecube"- circa 2001

Yeah that sounds familiar as well. ;)

ROFLLMAOWTFGTFO?

Yeah just look at all the other games with Wii in their name. WiiSports. Now there was an incredible seller wasn't it? Hell I even have it myself. OF course I am well aware that the majority of people bought it for the extra cointroller. WiiPlay? Yeah I have that one too. It came with my console. I constantly hear lemmings complainging that cows are hyping new IPs too far and vice versa. Does this not work for sheep? I guess not.

Any yet almost everyone else in this thread has said almost exactly the same thing that I have said. WiiFit won't be a system seller. And why do you think it will be? Because all those hard working casuals want to come home to their nice releaxing home and work otu after a hard day of work?

Face it, sales are all you have. Who cares if you win the console war if you don't have any games to show for it? Wiisales is the only game any of you seem to want to play.

Face it, if the Wii is successful it will be a step backward for gaming. Why spend money making games for gamers when we can make 5 times as much money making pseudo-games for fat housewives?

"You're deluding yourself if you think Microsoft's Xbox stands any kind of chance this generation against Nintendo's Gamecube"- circa 2001

Yeah that sounds familiar as well. ;)

The Wii is not the GC... the sooner you acknowledge this, the sooner your denial phase will end and you will move on to accept the Wii's dominance.

Mario? Brawl? Kart?Wiifit? :lol:

I thought this was a joke topic until I noticed it was jedigemini.

D_Znuhtz

WiiFit will sell more Wii's than Brawl, Galaxy and Mario Kart combined.

This reminds me of that time that Cows laughed at Nintendogs before it was released and then it essentially went on to win the DS the portable war.

I guess we'll see. There's really no point to this though, if all of these games belly-flop into a pool of mediocrity, you'll just feed us some BS like you did with MP3 above.

First it's "MP3 guaranteed GOTY AAAA", it doesn't happen and you want to be diplomatic: "Well uh, you see, Metroid traditionally hasn't been a system seller, and uhhh..."

Anyway I'm out this piece, if I read too much more of this I will want to smack an infant. In honor of your daily "face it" threads (get a new tagline), I'm going to give you some face it's.

Face it, if you could afford one or two of the other systems, you would buy them.

Face it, you spend all of your time in here trying to convince yourself and others that the Wii is a real console, rather than playing the handful of decent games available to you.

Face it, the Wii is last-gen technology with a fancy new controller.

Face it, it doesn't move gaming forward in any significant way.

Face it, most games would be better suited with a traditional controller, but Nintendo has painted themselves into a corner.

Face it, lack of online play is a big no-no in this, the 7th generation of consoles.

Face it, you've never actually played the other consoles, except begrudgingly at friends houses, and your jealousy was so overpowering that you couldn't even enjoy what you were playing.

Face it, when casuals get over their Wii, they're going to stop spending money on it, and Nintendo will dry up, as they always do.

Face it, those graphics are mediocre now, give it two years and people are really going to be tired of them.

Face it, once 360 and PS3 come down to more casual friendly prices, Wiiners will buy one. Just because they bought a Wii doesn't mean they are done buying. You act as if every Wiiner is a devoted lifelong Nintendo fanboy and once their money is down they are part of your righteous cause.

Face it, the Wii's budget price is the only reason it's selling.

Face it, there's no way anyone will actually play Wiifit more than three times. They may buy it out of my-ass-is-fat guilt, but in fat, lazy America it will not do anywhere near as well as it will in Japan.

Face it, if I'm wrong about any of these claims, I can weasel out of it, just like you do.

Face it, your opinion on the Wii does not matter.

Face it, the Wii is outselling your console of choice and it is set to win the console war whether you like it or not.

Face it, your opinion on my opinion is inconsequential. No one's opinion "matters" unless you let it.

Face it, sales are all you have. Who cares if you win the console war if you don't have any games to show for it? Wiisales is the only game any of you seem to want to play.

Face it, if the Wii is successful it will be a step backward for gaming. Why spend money making games for gamers when we can make 5 times as much money making pseudo-games for fat housewives?

Actually his posts are more factual while yours are more opinion-oriented.

Its not like lifting weights or running on the tredmill workout. Its more like yoga, and other minigames that get you up and going.

I'm well aware of what it is. But why do you think this title will sell so many consoles? Sorry but WiiFit is a new IP that won't be anywhere near as big a system seller as quite a few of the other Nintendo games.

When did I claim that it would be huge? It won't be nearly as big as Wii Sports, it was just so big simply because it came with the console. It will be a casual hit, but unless they come out with a snowboarding game or something, the balance board won't be too big.

It's already getting coverage form mainstream press as the show-stopper non game event of the millenium, and in an increasingly health conscious world this thing is going to explode upon its release.

Calling it a "show-stopper" is an overstatement, nobody is taking Wiifit seriously.

I highly doubt it is going to explode much of anywhere. Then again 'Brain training' or whatever it's called sold very well but as stated before I highly doubt WiiFit is going to sell consoles. Why would people want to spend close to $300 in order to get in shape when all they have to do is turn on the television to yoga/aerobics show and start working out? OR even better join a gym for $20 a month.

Nintendogs, Brain Age, Wii Sports, Wii Fit, Mario Party, and WarioWare (the so called "minigames") are not system sellers.

I guess WiiFit will be added to that list.

Since when was Wii Sports a system seller? Wii Sports sold so well because it came with an extra controller for the price of a single game. I know because I have it and that's why I bought it. It was being mareketed as such as well at the store I boguht it from. Mario Party and WarioWare are both already established IP personalities. I'll give younintendogs and bran age though. How those ever sold so much is beyond me. Nintendogs I can understand but brainage?

The games shownfor it looked mediocre at best and given how to controls work, I doubt they will get any better.

It failes as an exercise machine or whatever you want to call it, it allows for nothing but a few simple exercises, which won't do much for the average joe.

By the end of this gaming generation, Nintendo will only dominate the handheld market
