I'm a dedicated wii player and I think it's an awesome console. My friends, on the other hand, all have PS3's and 360's and say the wii just plain sucks. This obviously isn't true because the Wii has some great games. I started thinking. When you turn on the TV you see a lot of ads for the ps3 and 360 third party hardcore games and only family friendly nintendo ads for the wii.

Is this a contributing factor? Has lack of advertising led to the Wii being a laughing stock among hardcore gamers?

~AND~

If they showed more ads for the hardcore games on the Wii (i.e. Deadspace Extraction) would it boost sales?

DISCUSS!

ok then.

how do i move the topic then?

This is not a PS3/360 flaming/trolling thread. Think before you post.
