Why can't the wii compete against the 360 and ps3 in hardware(graphics, physics, HD, etc.) but is allowed to compete when it comes to sales?

*teh wii can't be compared to the 360 and ps3 cause it's not competing in the graphics field, it's new gen*

*but but teh wii sales are killing the ps3 and 360's sales at this point*

Scapegoat, or just pure damage control?  Sheep?

Huh? We already know the Wii has weaker graphics than PS3 and 360, but that doesn't change its dominance in sales

Because saying 360 will sell more than Wii is possible, saying Wii games will look better than 360 games is not possible (atleast when both systems are being pushed to the max).

You posted this in my thread and itsmore pathetic in here than in there. Anywhoooo. Wii is allowed to compete with 360 and Ps3. Who said that was against the rules? New gen is the ludicrous thinking that the Wii is creating a different but "better" pathway to play games. No one ever says it cant be compared and then says the new gen line. It would be an oxymoron.

They can be compared on all counts - they're going after the same market. The only difference is the consoles have traditionally battled on the graphics front (apart from games selection, as that's a given), and now Nintendo has upped the ante on a different aspect of their system. Can they be compared in graphics? Sure. Can they be compared in terms of controllers? Sure. However, it's a moot point as the 360/PS3 are clear winners graphically over the Wii, and the Wii is a clear winner controller-wise over the PS3/360 (unless you're a traditionalist). They can be compared, it's just that there's no point in comparing them as we already no who the clear-cut winner is on each front.

wii is not competing... it has already won.lol. THAT WAS FANBOY TALK.lol. It has every right to compete with the others even though the graffix are less powerful. Games are what matter, IMO.

I ask that sometimes.It seems that even with the drought the wii doesnt seems to be bashed,that has to tell you something about the population of SW.Also thats a popular system. No mess with da king!!. P.S Imo Wii has a lack of games yet SSBB and the VC are my motivation to get one yet it sucks right now.

well i dont really care if you compare have a ball. its a fact that the wii is the weakest system out of the big 3, in fact PS3 and 360 are on a whole new level of graphics. while the wii is only stronger than the last gen consoles. the 360/PS3 are stronger than everything out but a PC. but graphics and sales have different merits. sales leads to a companies success, market lead, which leads to more games and more effort being put into those games for that console. graphics dont necessarily get you games. if they did xbox would have had the most exclusives last gen but it didnt.

Product differentiation doesn't mean that competition isn't there. The Wii, 360, and PS3 are all new video game consoles competing for market share. So sales should be compared. That's like saying PSP and DS sales can't be compared.

Should we post a thread of Wiis motion control verses 360's motion control?  HMMM i wonder who would win.  Everyone already knows the 360 (and PS3) are more powerful graphicaly.  But the thing is all three consoles are still competing in sales which more sales = more games and more games = more better games or variety.  And thats why pretty much they toss sales in your face.

So. Like another poster said. 360/ps3 graphics will always be dominant over the Wii. But sales are different, showing that next gen graphics arent the most important thing to a console. The 360 and the Ps3 have the capability to sell more than the wii. And currently the Wii is outselling both. I like to compare actually. Even though 9 times out of 10 the wii will lose its still nice to see how far behind/how close it is to the competitors. ANd in the case of splinter cell and SMG its really interesting. Showing that Wii having horrible graphics is mostly the devs fault. Even though it is a less powerful system.

Did we compare PS2 graphics with Xbox graphics? No, cause it's a given that xbox has better hardware. Same as here, PS3/360 obviously has better hardware, comparing it is seriously a waste of time, worse than finding out ways to add $$ to how find out how much a 360 REALLY cost, so unless you are the type that likes to state the obvious (which I'm guessing you are), go ahead and troll.

who said the wii doesnt have to compete against the other 2 in performance?

it does,  graphically, it loses,   in other regards id say it wins.

controllers, being the obvious one,  I do truly enjoy the wiimote functionality far more than plain ol button mashing.

I think it should be noted though on the wiis behalf, that in terms of graphical prowess, that even though it doesnt touch the ps3/360. its still rather impressive given the fact that the big N isnt focusing on power.

a low cost system can still pump out very nice graphics (just check mp3 and smg)


that being said.   sheep have the right to quote sales at you.  cus they are competing for portions of the same market, and are doing well for themselves.

I love it how people add a "bu bu but" in front of their opponent's argument and think it automatically wins the argument for them. Oh, and in response to your question, it's "allowed" to compete because it's a video game system released by Microsoft and Sony's rival. You know when you go to Wal-Mart and you see the game cases with PS3, XBox 360, and Wii games all in a row? Yeah, that's because they're all the same sort of product, competing with each other for the same consumers.

               $250.00 is a high price for the system ! Now, $150.00 would be fair but than "N" would not be able to act as though it's next gen.! It's kind of funny b/c MS not lowering the 360 b/c they don't want people to infer it's not as next gen as PS3 ;)....... it all has to do with marketing; not getting what you pay for lol. It's working too :(

It's called tacit knowledge. We know the 360/PS3 are better graphically. We don't know if they're (always will be) better/worse sales wise. Just like you don't go around asking your friends "how many people have you killed today?" You just assume the answer is 0.

I dont really think 250 is that high  (oh and I paid 280...  cdn..    you know.  that stuff happens here)

and 150 would be silly, ninty isnt the kind of company to take a loss when they dont have to.   and as far as "cant claim theyre next gen,  tahst just balls.  of  course they can.  they could have charge 20 cents and still calim to be next gen.  

moneysoft doent want to lower the price of the 360, cus the more they lower it the less money theyll make   (im pretty sure its making money now)

but you are right, its all about marketting, and nintendo is doing a fantastic job marketting a fantastic machine

Half of you say it should be able to compete fairly with the other two in terms of sales, but are quick to change your argument when you compare wii games to 360/ps3 games.  You either say the games can't be compared because they aren't going after the same market whatever that means, or get of subject and discuss console sales to cover up!

So it's okay to focus on the wii's sales, but not it's power to produce quality games by next gen standards.  After all it is a next gen console right?

     This is great. Before the Wii came out, everyone thought that the systems with better graphics would be more popular with the general public. At the moment that isn't the case, now the Wii is some how not able to compete because it's unfair to the other two consoles?

Oh now we can compare consoles to handhelds now? Cause I was certain most of you say DS success don't necessarily translate to Wii's success because they are different. Fanboy's logic for you. *shrug*

No but sheep are sure fire hypocrites that's for sure.

Nintendo always gets a free pass no matter what they do.

define next gen,

if im not mistake, its the successor of a console, that has marked improvements in interface/graphics etc.
correct?

and by taht definition, the wii is next gen,
it follows the GC, it is a marked improvement in hardware, (even though all devs may not be using it to its fullest potential)   improved user interface, new input mechanics.

what makes the wii not next gen?

*teh wii can't be compared to the 360 and ps3 cause it's not competing in the graphics field, it's new gen*

*but but teh wii sales are killing the ps3 and 360's sales at this point*

Scapegoat, or just pure damage control? Sheep?

[QUOTE="iceberg_shorty"]

[QUOTE="Ontain"]I think it's totally fine to compare. but it's done now. we know the hardware is not as powerful so it's pretty much a moot point isn't it? it wasn't the major selling point of the wii. Jandurin

So it's okay to focus on the wii's sales, but not it's power to produce quality games by next gen standards. After all it is a next gen console right?

You understand that people just ACCEPT the power limitations, right? So, why are you continuing this thread? Trying to reach a certain number of posts or something?

The Wii has the power to produce quality next gen games. If you are talking about graphics though, of course not. Stop stating the damn obvious. I tell you, it's like one of those threads to try to push up the 360's price. "Bu bu but you need to buy the HDTV!" No, you don't, that's a fact so is the fact that Wii is not as powerful.

"Ports on the PSP suck."

"Ports on the Wii are awesome!"

Sheep logic for ya.

*shrug*

Oh now we can compare consoles to handhelds now? Cause I was certain most of you say DS success don't necessarily translate to Wii's success because they are different. Fanboy's logic for you. *shrug*

No but sheep are sure fire hypocrites that's for sure.

Nintendo always gets a free pass no matter what they do.


dude, give it up.  your "I hate nintendo" kick is tired at best.

you see a couple of rampant fanboys and you associate that attitude with all ninty fans.  
its ridiculous.   ninty does not get a free pass,  did they get one last gen?  i dont think so,  they took a s**t kicking for lack of online, lack of 3rd parties ..

and this gen theyre getting called on for ebing slow with online, not going Hd a bunch of stuff..

noone gets a free pass,   youre just angry cus a company you love to hate is doing well.

Excatly what I'm talking about people act like the wii is a handheld, where it can't be compared when it comes to console capabilities because it's not after the same market.  Yet it's okay to compare in terms of sales.  The wii should be compared in all aspects of next gen gaming not just the ones it's doing good in(sales).  Perfect example of what I'm talking about here: http://www.gamespot.com/wii/puzzle/wariowaresmoothmoves/review.html?om_act=convert&om_clk=gssummary&tag=summary;score  Now was this game really reviewed by next gen standards?  I guess it really doesn't matter cause it's not supposed to be compared to next games on other consoles, but if it sales more than Halo 3 it can be compared because these are two next gen games all of a sudden. :roll:

You should do you research.. Nintendo themselves stated that they aren't competing for the same consumers, but they will always be competing in sales.. Therefore your logic fails...

Look at it this way, if a man with one leg defeats an man with both legs in a race, then is that something worth talking about? Nintendo entered this gen with one leg (less graphics) and after the million or so caparisons to the other two-legged systems it continues to dominate the race. Of course it should be talked about because it's defining the industry for fans and developers.

Oh cause Nintendo says so huh, wtf kind of logic is that?  That's like saying the ds even though it's in the handheld market should compete with console sales because that's what they are doing great in.  BS

You and Nintendo's logic fails.........

Because Nintendo openly stated that they were creating a console for pure fun. Not to compete for the best graphics, even though alot of Wii titles and upcoming titles look great anyway. Oh, and it IS dominating in sales.

TC does have a good point. The only thing you hear from sheep these days is sales-related. It's gotten to be annoying, only because whenever Cows or Lems are talking games and talking about which game is going to own the other, sheeps are nowhere to be found. But mention sales, and they come a'runnin. All I hope for in SW is a real actual discussion about GAMES. Even when I bash PS3, I NEVER bash sales. I bash the lack of games. I just sheep would be more interested in games than quarterly sales figures to get hyped about their system.
