Wow, just wow...and people call me the biggest Wii basher on this forum :lol:
Even I think this topic is ridiculous. Wii sales are great, and it ain't goin' nowhere. I can bash it all I want, but Nintendo is genious and they really got it nailed this time. It really doesn't matter if you hate the Wii or love it. Nintendo has made a success out of a console that can barely prove that it has graphics better than the original Xbox.
Most of the games have horrible controls thanks to 3rd parties not even caring enough to try to make them better. Table Tennis, while a very good game on 360, just got slammed on Wii for its controls. The same song and dance over and over and over. Wii has "potential" that is not utilized.
Yet, even with most gameshaving terrible controls (with the exception of a very few select 3rd party games and all 2nd and 1st party games) the Wii continues to sell anyway. Like it or not...Nintendo is a genious and dug themselves out of a huge hole from the Gamecube debacle.
In less that one year Nintendo has sold more Wiis than half of what Gamecube sold in 6 years. Like it or not...Nintendo knows how to get out of a tight situation. Now that PS3 is facing the same situation as Gamecube was (in terms of console sales), do you think Sony will have the genious to fix this? I wonder...
I may bash the Wii a lot in my posts, but I'm not an idiot. I know full well that Nintendo is a force to be reckoned with. I just wish 3rd parties would give a damn about Wii and take it seriously for once....
