Nintendo dining out on Filet Mignon, while Sony and MS are fighting over the....

scraps from the bottom of the garbage can.

 This is really the way I see it when you look at the sales rates. Wii is dominating worldwide. It's selling about as fast as PS3 and 360 combined. And DS' domination over the PSP is even more severe. And it's doing this even BEFORE the big-hitters of Mario Galaxy, Pokemon, Super Smash Bros., and Metroid Prime have launched, and before Zelda:Phantom Hourglass, and Dragon Quest 9 for the DS.

 Once those games release, combined with Nintendo's price advantage, it's lights out for the "competition" (and I use that term loosely).

So everyone is in agreement then?Number_1_Gamer

I think the Wii makes a great secondary console. I'm parital to the 360. That is my personal taste, though. It could explain the great sales. It's so inexpensive that it makes an easy secondary console.

I still need a DS though...

yea a Fillet Mignon, but in the wii it looks like a stake and potatoes

"Stake"? You mean steak?

Anyways, Filet Mignon is steak. And what do you have against potatoes?

So PS3 and 360 gamers are scraps on the bottom of a garbage can?flazzle

Yeah, the Wii is like the $9.99 all-you-can-eat buffet that everyone goes to because it's dirt cheap, but then get there & realize the food tastes like crap & some little 4 year old just walked by & sneezed boogers into the macaroni surprise :lol:ColoradoKindBud

Buffets are my favourite. You get to pick and choose what you like. You're not force-fed whatever the crappy cook decides.

Except it's all left-over crap from earlier in the week all mixed together so that people will think they're getting something special.  The Wii sucks like that.

If you look at the power of the systems the Wii is competing more with the LiteBrite than with the 360 and PS3.ramey70

I wonder how many lite-brites have been sold since 1967...

Left over crap? That's why so many 360s are failing, and having to be returned to MS to be fixed. And don't even get me started on the PS3DO.

The 360s are having to be returned at a high rate to MS to be "fixed", because they are so poorly built. I saw a video of one guy whose 360 broke, and so did both of his roomates' 360s. And don't get me started on the POS3.

Wii is doing great but what good does that do me.  The Wii and its plentiful amounts of mini games and PS2 ports doesnt make me wanna get it.  I am sure it might be perfect for some but just like the DS and GBA, the Wii as your ONLY system would not be the ideal for many gamers unless your a Nintendo fan.

Wii's great sales are great for Nintendo but due to their restricting hardware and controls, 3rd parties (who love to make multiplat games) will still shun the Wii and work with the combined audience of the PS3/360.  So although Nintendo may be eating Filet Mignon, its customers due to lack of 3rd party and unnecessary amounts of mini games are eating soggy Tuna Fish.
