Despite it's one year head-start, it seems the 360 is 1/3 of a million Wiis from losing 1st place in sales. Sorry if old. Not being biased towards Wii, just sharing teh news.

On the subject of Japan. How's your favorite console selling?
Since when does a system winning with lower quality games a good thing?tuddaliciousI'm not saying anything is good or bad, I am simply reporting what has happenned.

We'll I think you do but not all of them will cost $30.

Oh don't worry im not attacking you man, I just think that no real gamer should want a console with poor game quailty being the leader of a generation. More a general statement.
So in other words, by the end of the month the Wii will be in the lead (according to VGChartz).
*remembers everyone who said the system wouldn't sell*
:lol::lol::lol:
It will definately overtake in sales, but in th end, it's still a console no one will ever really take seriously. It's the hot thing to have with a control scheme that's different from everythind else. It'll share the same kind of succes the gamecub e did as far as games go.farrell2kSo it'll have some of the greatest games of all time, several of which are GOTY. I have no problem with that.
And just because you don't take it seriously doesn't mean nobody takes it seriously.
[QUOTE="Jandurin"]Sooo, developers taking note yet?Impex
Not yet.
They've all openly stated they have taken note...although some care more than others. The problem is that unless all they do is release mini-game collections and PS2 ports, it's going to take a year or two before real games make their way out. Real games take a while to develop and developers have openly said that they were unprepared for the Wii to sell at all, let alone in such numbers. So they are jumping on late which means the real games are going to be late....if they get made at all of course.
the cheap Wii price is what helps alot. But I wonder if it will be able to continue for a very long time due to the lack of good games. IMO mini-games hit a point where you simply can't do anything that original anymore.
As for the PS3/360 I think each console will have there own kind of games. Personaly there's alot of upcoming games I want to play for the PS3 and only like 3 games I'd play on the 360.
I dont trustthose charts.I want to see numbers comfired by nintendo. not before that will wii surpase xbox360
The best part is that MS fanboys can no longer say that they're in the lead.

Right, because the Wii won't get any good games and only minigames. Let's forget about Metroid Prime 3, SSBB, SMG, No More Heroes, Zack and Wiki, FFCC, DQS, and a host of other games and call them bad/mini games.
yeah all the cheapest consoles like the dreamcast and gamecube sell the best....:|So the cheapest system is selling well. *golf clap*

The 360 will take a huge leap ahead during the holiday season if the Wii truely does have a shortage. The price drop plus the games that are coming out should push the 360 ahead.justforlotr2004Once the Wii passes the 360... I highly doubt it will ever catch up. Though, this holiday is its best chance.

Its hard to tell what is driving the Wii and when it will stop. With the 360 its easy to tell what drives the 360 because its the games.

I've stopped being surprised, and I just assume it'll sell forever as it is now. That's the only way to keep from being continually surprised.
