You dont have to be a sheep to know that the Wii is going to be a sucess, maybe not the same as the DS, but still.
1. First off, the handheld market has two competitors, the console market had three. Thats is itslef is a big ifference.Just like operating systems huh? Theres only MS and Apple. Oh nvm, you are prolly going to use PS3 Linux.Â
2. You think the DS is selling well because of its gimmick? look at the ds's best games. With the exception of Nintendogs, thy dotn even use the stylus to any great extent.
If they come with a great experience, they do not need to use the Wii-mote. A wii-mote like a stylus does not determine how fun a game is but on how you use it and if you want to use it. SSBB does not use it, but I can guarentee you that it will contribute to the Wii.
3. The DS has a better game lineup than the psp. that is what is pushing sales. You sheep act like the wii will win because they both have a new device. you forget that the wii game lineup is complete trash at this point. and even in the future, only a blind sheep would say that the wii has a better game lineup than the 360 and ps3. Basically, every genre is dominated by either the 360 or ps3. What action game will wii throw against assassins creed and ninja gaiden? What racer will it throw against Forza and GT? What shooter will it throw against halo? What will it throw against MGS?
2 games are already killer app - Zelda and Wario Ware
Forza, MGS,Ninja Gaiden = All Not Killer App
Zelda > Any Action Adventure Game IMO
but that's not just my opinion, reviewers have given many AAAs and AAAAs to Zelda games, it is an established franchise. Find another killer app franchise that scored AAAA
GT = a casual game, by looks of PS3 right now, its not gonna sell to casuals.
SSBB, SMG, Mario Kart - will all be killer app pretty much no matter
Look at Super Mario Sunshine, it still sold many gamecubes
Better lineup than the 360? IMO NO!
Better lineup than the PS3? Killer-App wise YES.
4. the wii isnt even getting the high production multiplats :| say goodbye to games like oblivion, rainbow 6, assassins creed, mercs 2, army of two, shadowrun, etc.
Oh ya multi-plats really determine a console's sucess. What if RE4 didn't come to the PS2, would it still be a sucess? What about GTA to the Xbox 1?
5. You have to take into account the accessibility of handhelds. In a family of multiple children, EACH CHILD will likely have a handheld of their own. i speak from expereicne that all of the children in my family have handhelds of their own. whereas a console will serve the whole household.
Sure that sells consoles. But then again Disk Read Errors and 3 Red Lights of Death will too.
6. GBA is the best selling gaming device ever? look how successful that made gamecube :roll:
Same can be said for PS2 and PSP.
in conclusion, i'd just like to say that now matter how sheep try to convince themselves, just because both they are similar in that they have a gimmick to them, handhelds=/=console. end of story.
True, Handhelds are not the same as consoles, but Wii --> sucess.
