Wii will flop

First off, the Wii's success proves you wrong. Second, your arguments are completely incorrect.

Controller = the only next gen controller out of the 3 consoles
Graphics = not great in all games, but some gems stand out (galaxy, metroid, etc.)
Hardware = wrong, everything internally is new; it has more than twice the GC's memory, and both the cpu and gpu run 1.5 times faster.
Games = Metroid 3, Mario Galaxy, and Smash Bros are crappy games??
Price = better than the competition.

To be honest, back in 2006, I would have agreed with him.

Who the hell would have guessed an outdated piece of hardware would outsell the mighty Playstation 3 and 360?

That's all that needs to be said about any of this, Nintendo's continued domination of the gaming market and Sony and Microsoft both combined are unable to keep up, even with the release of a perfect 10 scoring game on both consoles!

PS: Sorry if someone already posted the link, I was too lazy to go through all 16 pages and see if anyone did.

Controller = gimmick that people will get used to it fast and throw it away
Graphics = sucks and it doesn't support HD
Hardware = Gamecube 1.1 the only new thing there is the Processor
Games = Out of Miyamoto's kiddy ass and repetative crappy Mario games
Price = You get what you pay for. The only crap you hype about is this

... anyway that guy got owned. Hard.

Wow...where to start. Well, in case you've been living under a rock the wii is in first place, and those kiddy mario games, well they took home 2007's game of the year. Any other crazy claims you want to add?

What does DS has to do with Wii?What did gameboy have to do with gamecube flopping?

Except that the DS is a major success in both sales AND games ;)

The only "next" generation controller? What? You act as though motion controllers are a new revolutionary idea. They first came into play in the 80s, get real man.

Graphics are mediocre at best.

Hardware was outdated before it was even released. It's a Gamecube 1.5 from your stats.

Games are fair, not the best; its a well known concept that the Wii's library here is the lesser one.

Price - way overpriced.

edit: wow, I too just saw when this was made. Everything he said was correct to a certain extent, the only fault was that it didn't flop sales wise. :?

[QUOTE="Timpanzee"]The DS disagrees with you on all those points. :|King_Reyes

Wait, are you serious?

...

The DS has beaten the PSP in every corner of the world :?

you have fun with your faulty x-box 360 and downgraded (graphics) and overpriced ps3 while i have fun playing supermario galaxy (straight from miyamotos kiddy ass) and zelda with the most interactive contoller in videogame historyAkaTubby

Even i would take a faulty 360 over a Wii any day and in case you couldn't tell by my username i own a 60gig PS3, and where do you get off saying the 360 has downgraded graphics ?

Oh and by the way the 360 pro system is $350.00 and the 360 Elite is $450.00 while the PS3 is in between at $399.00, so how is that over priced, why because your Wii is $250.00, again you get what you pay for, what phenomenal new AAA games do you have besides your Nintendo 1st party sequels ?, any at all worth mentioning ?.

Look you Wii owners have no arguement here because you don't have a next gen system, you have a modded gamecube at best with added motion controllers, please don't try to make an arguement against games like Grand Theft Auto and Oblivion with games like Mario and Zelda because your just embarrassing yourselves.

You remind me of another clown: PS3_FTW.

Who knows. Maybe with practice, you can stack up.

Not likely. PS3_FTW had the claim that his dad worked for R* and he had a demo copy for GTA IV. Now that its out, he's got no petty claims to make. Maybe he can be more like ProtossRushX with some practice and guidance along the way.
