Considering a low graphics machine is completely obliterating the competition. Even at only $50 more, the 360 doesn't stand a chance, as they can't even keep the wii on the shelves. Imagine when they actually meet demand.

The Gamecube capped at 21 million units sold. Will the Wii surpass this? Maybe, but it needs titles other than Mario, mario and more mario for a change. It's selling cause it's the cheapest thing available and the younger audience has their parents buying it and the whole "keeping up with the Jones'" thing really comes up when it comes to what you buy your kids.

You owned yourself, The Wii sold 6.5 million without a Mario game (Super Paper Mario being the first).

It's stilll a console, even without their core titles. Even the Gamecube ports are selling hot, it's an f'n hotcake factory! And i just mentioned titles that aren't Mario. so basically in less than 6 months it sold about 1/4 of what the gamecube sold. That is A freakin mazing? only 6 months. Think about a year +

It's over, Nintendo has beaten us all.

I did. I mentioned Disaster, Hammer, what else do you want? PS2 is a great console, it's been out for years, and it's a great buy. How can it be a fad when its selling so well without a real hardcore nintendo game yet. It's insane!

Nintendo is a hotcake factory!

I would think that we don't know enough about them to judge... Nintendo has created new IPs each generation, but no one has really given them a chance. They only focus on Mario and Zelda then complain about Nintendo not doing anything new...

From what Ive seen of the games, with Disaster nothing, they have failed to impress me.  Saying hey we've come up with a name doesnt impress me, but hey thats just me.

Because you said Nintendo clobbers all.. and the PS2 is outselling any console this gen. At least, I think that's what he means.

No its a handheld but since you did mention the Nintendo brand name then include the Sony name for it has dominated the industry in consoles for 10-13years.

You're barking up the wrong tree buddy, I'm a Sony fan. You can't deny though that the Nintendo Wii is selling like crazy. Just because PS3 won't outsell the Wii, doesn't mean you don't get good games.

I totaly agree with you that the Wii is selling good but the Sony brand has made more profit with the PS1 and PS2 because consoles are more profitable you cant compare the handheld market with the console market. So I say onto you again if your going to include the Nintendo brand as pawns all then include Sony if not just say Wii is selling like hot cakes.

It's selling "well." DS and Wii are on to a road to outsell everything. DS is the fastest selling gaming system of all time no?

You really have no idea how wrong you are. :| When I waited in line for one on launch day - there wasn't a single person under the age of 18 in line with me. Furthermore, there is only one Mario title on the Wii. Educate yourself.

Lets see. SPM came out what? 5 months after the release of Wii? IT sold 6.5 million before that game even came out. What about Nintendos other IP's?

Heres a list of All Nintendos Ip's on Wii rather than Mario

Animal Crossing

BigBrain Academy

EyeShield 21

Zelda Tp

Pennent Chase Baseball

Wii Health Pack

Wii Sports

Wii Orchestra

Wii Play

Wario-Ware SM

Smash Bros Brawl

Project Hammer

Pokemon Rev

Metroid Prime 3

Mario & Sonic

Kirby

Fire Emblem

Excite Truck

DK bongo blast

Disaster Day of Crisis

Battalion Wars 2

Pikmin 3 (rumored) 

Those arent New games? 

 And dispite what you think of Disaster or Project Hammer they are new ip's. You said they need other titles and those are just two of the many Nintendo games coming out.
