The Wii is the first console to sell so many units

without having a great librabry of games . therefore it shouldn't be called successful

Yeah it was pretty bad. The DS was the best system this gen (outside of PC) so not all hope is lost for sheep.

well its unlikely it will ever reach the numbers the PS2 did now.

Wii all jelly or what?

A great library of games...by who's standards?

A Wii is a great device for those families who love to play videogames together.Wii Play and Wii Sports are some of the greatest games according to some of my relatives, I should really play those games, because you get to be part of the game instead of just playing it. :roll: Apparently, I've never heard of these great video games and play stupid ones like Assassin's Creed.

Is it necessarily for hardcore gamers? Eh, that one can be debated, but there are worthwhile games on the console.

Library was fine. I played enough cIassics to not be bothered.

Library was fine and most of the games I played ranged from good to awesome.Online was a mixture of horrible and okay.

I love the wii. At least it makes people get up and move when they play games.Bout_That_Life

Great games, great little system. Not for everyone though.

That isn't counting Virtual Console. But I usually only ever purchase 20 games for one system each gen. The only system I have more games then the Wii is NES and PC. Though NES I'm just guessing because I currently only have 6 NES games but I'm going by Memory of all the other games I had. For PC Gamespot says I have 39 games but I actually currently have 24 PC games. Because the rest are games I used to have.

Most highly rated exclusives of any console this gen, try again ;)

This thread doesn't make any sense, therefore it shouldn't have been created.

Even as a Hardcore Sheep, no it's not.

The Playstation 2 sold the most, by more than 60 million units.

I have about 30 games for the system, and they're all pretty good, and I missed out on a plenty of highly praised games because they didn't interest me or I didn't have the money.

To be fair, the PS2 has been on the market and continuously supported for 12 years now.

You into casual, cartoon style, fitness or dance games.. or just Nintendo games, then sure its for you.
All those Soccer Moms, Elderly folks and so on bumped the sales no doubt.

Everything else is available elsewhere and also better. Even the casual games are everywhere.

QUALITY > QUANTITY.

Rather have a handful of games and Online games from my PS3, 360 and PC library over the ENTIRE Wii Library.

Have you played the entire Wii library?

It's not the all-time best library, but it's decent and the console was reasonably priced. I'm still playing on it five years in. Thank you Xenoblade Chronicles.

But yeah I have 25 games so far I had 26 but that one game I didn't like.
