Nintendo DS & Nintendo Wii are dominating system sales and every nintendo games are topping 1 million sold worldwide this is 1 fact that nobody can deny . Nintendo was smart to go afterthe the bigger market and let sony and ms fight for the same "hardcore crowd" ..nintendo outsmarted the competition and it shows in their success w/ the wii & nintendo ds .yamauchi is a true visionary for choosing satoru iwata as president of nintendo .

long live nintendo "the undisputed king of gaming"

Don't get too excited. Nintendo's lead isn't huge, and they need to do more to convince 3rd parties to put their great franchises on the wii.

Nope. Nintendo is dominating the consumer market.

Dominating the Industry would mean a majority of 3rd party developers giving the wii theoir undevided attention. At the moment this isn't happening.

Yes, the PC is beating the MAC by a mile. Unfortunately it not in the same race with the PS3, Wii or XBox 360. Those systems are game consoles and not PC's.

Maybe in sales, because their machine is cheapest. Any money if PS3 or 360 was at that price, it'd be a different story. As for games...haha yeah right. Dream on.

System wars. Not console wars. As far as system wars is concerned, the PC is a contender/winner.

Worldwide sales is an okay factor to go by, and there's no denying Nintendo's strong worldwide sales. I would say their sales in the US; however, have been lackluster. I still do not own a wii, and I own two 360's and a PS3. I don't know a single person who owns a wii... I have never even touched a wii!

I have nothing against Nintendo, and I plan to get a Wii, but it doesn't help that I still can't find one at a store.

Wii is fast becoming the fastest and best selling consle of all time, but they have fewer AAA titles, third party developers everywhere are either fully supporting, or have made known they will be, or have regretted not intially supporting the Wii, but the Wii has fewer AAA titles, The Wii has multiple million sellers, but they aren't AAA, Mainstream america is in love with the Wii, but it has fewer AAA titles...yeah the Wii is a real failure because it has fewer AAA titles..

maybe because if a console SELLS more, more developers will makes GAES for that console, and if those games SELL well there is even more incentive to make more GAMES for that console..why does 95% of this forum NOT understand that rather SIMPLE fact?

BuryMe

im guessing they arenot gonna do that instead they will convince 3rd parties to create barand new franchises for their system see No More Heros) still you gotta hand it to nintendo for catching up with the 360 in only nine mornths and now the games have started coming out the wii is gonna rule the gaming universe

Who knows if they'll be any good? Bad games sell well too, so support continues without any guaranteed improvement, but they can still sell.

of course games won. there are more lemmings and cows than sheep and they and casey can't stand the fact that the wii is winning so they didn't vote for sales (even though thats why the ps1 and ps2 won). i don't care what all the cows and lems decided, the wii is winning. ask anyone else anywhere else.

IF 360 and PS3 were that price theyd have same graphics as Wii and no HD just like Wii :D except Wii still has the motion sensing controls.

They're on top but it's not dominance. There's really no possible way they can "dominate" with the Wii. It's just completely incapable of satisfying a huge portion of gamers.

actually, the thread just proves that there are more gamers than... well sales analysts.

Or people just voted games out of spite. Always a possibility.

That's the way it has always been. Whatever company sells the most consoles wins. The gaming business market will see it this way as well. Gamers can go by how many quality games a console gets, since it's all about the games for people who play them. Seriously though, only the gamers from this game site is going to see it this way. Gamers everywhere else will think otherwise, I'm sure.

I don't think the OP is talking about sales vs. games or even who would win system wars. He's talking about Nintendo dominating the industry, which it is. There's a pretty big difference.
