Between USA and Japan Wii is outselling 360 by over 500k every month. If you do the math Wii needs to outsell 360 by 400k a month to catch up by the end of the year, its already doing that and then some. Also supply for the Wii is going to increase, just think Wii is still supply constrained in all three major regions and still putting up these kinds of numbers. About Europe, we dont have reliable numbers so i wont include it but if we did have numbers im very confident that the Wii is doing even better.

THE NEXT GEN WAR IS ALL BUT OVER.............SORRY FANBOYS

Um I think you should have posted this in the system wars forum this forum is dead.zachdragon

This generation will take up 2 generations. The first half is Wii, X360, and PS3. The second part is the PS3 versus MS and Nintendo's next systems. The PS3 is will come back in 2009 and dominate the next generation.lightningbugx

Wii will win sales wise but game wise (which is more important) Xbox 360 wins.AHUGECAT

Well....it's April now....then after Christmas it will be Next January, etc.

Sheep are getting way too cocky with the Wii's success, yea its selling good but remember...

The SNES beat the Genesis, and it was released two years late...

A lot can change over a consoles lifetime, and seeing as the wii hasnt even been out for a year, I would wait before you start calling it the winner.

There are some great games in that list and the fact that you are not interested does not change that. Meroid Prime 3 and SSBB are the third games in very popular and well loved franchises. Super Mario Galaxy is the first next generation game for the worlds most recognized and popular video game icon. NiGHTS is a much anticipated sequel. Project HAMMER and Disaster:  Day of Crisis are both highly anticipated Wii games. And Super Paper Mario was an extremely well received game.

Well I could argue some more but if that's your opinion, then I guess I can't argue that. But I think a lot of people would agree that list is weak compared to 360's or even the PS3's, but it all comes down to your opinion and I respect that.

But here's mine: 360's list is unmatched, not only does it have the multiplats (ie Metal Gear Solid 4, Final Fantasy XIII and Devil May Cry 4) but it has the exclusives like umm... well I'll think about them but anyways 360's list > PS3's list + Wii's list.

 It's a Wii list, not a PS3...oh wait you said mediocre trash, not over rated garbage...

Wii will win sales wise but game wise (which is more important) Xbox 360 wins.AHUGECAT

yea... the wii is 4 months old. 360 is a year old... all 360 games suck ass anyways 

I hate to say it, because it seems like someone says it every month, but Wii sales will eventually slow down.  It's the cheapest of the bunch, so it's no surprise to me that it's currently dominating sales.

Enjoy the sales, Wii owners--that's all you have.  I wouldn't trade a plug nickel for the paltry selection of Wii games available to you.  You and I both know you (I'm talking to you, Mr. Hardcore gamer) will eventually own a 360 or PS3 once you get tired of the same-old same-old on the Wii. 

As for the "common sense" alluded to by another poster, do you think for a hot minute that developers will bring their most passionate projects to the Wii?  Can you say, "no".  The Wii doesn't offer the right sized canvas to realize such visions...the demand for new technology, and bigger, better, faster will never die.  it's human nature.  It's evolution.

Just keep you pants on--the ride has just begun.

Orb and Thorn are being made by Crossbeam Studios, however only Orb will be out first for the Wii, Thorn is Wii exclusive but probably wont be out until late next year since we havent even seen anything on Orb yet. According to Wikipedia, Crossbeam is working on Orb mostly at this point, although their forums state that they have already started working on the story for the sequel which leads me to believe that Orb 1 will be out after E3 this year when they finally release information on the game. There are supposedly 12 main characters split over the 2 games or something and there will be downloadable side quests for the time between Orb 1 and 2.

 What are you talking about? Metal Gear Solid 4 is not coming out on the 360, Kojima has stated this many, many times. He said that if there are going to games by him coming out on the Wii and 360 they will be original and not ports.
