I know what you're going to say... games are selling better on the Wii because it has a larger install base...despite the fact that more hardcore game purchasers are PS3 owners... and that's exactly whyWiiis going to get all of thesoftware support this gen. Wii's install base is growing larger than the PS3'swith every passing moment...the gap is only widening with time.

All your threads are the same. Just bump one and keep all your sales babal there, and Motorstorm has already sold a million.

Either you're lying through your teeth or your source is outdated. More games than Resistance have sold a million.

I haven't seen a cow say games weren't selling on the Wii. All I've seen them say is that the games selling on the Wii were crap. And by the looks of some of the games on your list, you proved them correct.

Are you surprised that the overall sales of a game is higher for a console that has nearly 3 times the install base. This kinda means nothing really.

Those aren't the same games, that fails. Also, to beat the PS3 isn't that great when you got 3 times the users it has. To say that the wii sells games, it should have sold the TRIPLE on all those games, or almost.

That's not what third parties care about. They want cold hard cash. Not better game-console attachment rates.

The same reason everyone hates EA; it's fun to hate the big guy. Granted, Sony isn't the big guy anymore but the fact that they were is good enough for most people.

If you were to actually figure out the numbers based on consoles owned you would realize that lots of the titles in which you give numbers for is self-ownage.

Mario Party 8 sold more than a million copies?!? That's Awesome!!!

Do you think they'll reward us with a sequel?!

THETRUEDOZAH

Gee willickers, I sure do hope so! I can't wait to ask my mommy to buy me this one AND the next.

Wee.

*sigh* Mario Party is so 2 generations ago.

So its confirmed: Wii owners will buy crappy games.

Nah, I'm just kidding. Or am I?

why did you go strait to cows, why not hermits or lemmings? Whats with sheep and lemmings trying to single out cows?

when cows completly and continualy bash nintendo and the wii....no one notices it or says something against it....but when a sheep singles out cows (who are the ones who bash sheep the most) people ask why?!?!

sheep are probably the most passive group in system wars...if you leave us alone and our system...we leave you all alone...but even if you leave cows alone...they still hate and bash!!!
