[QUOTE="Tylendal"][QUOTE="AvIdGaMeR444"]

[QUOTE="Riviera_Phantom"]Totally agree. Even RIGHT NOW on game head to heads PS3 is winning by a large margin, if you only include exclusives then they are about even. But whats exclusive got to do with a software library? Wii tries to mimick DS but is forgetting it's not competing with the PSP. PS3 will see more standard game support. Wii will have the leftovers with tacked on controls. Of course i am talking about 3rd party not 1st party. AvIdGaMeR444

I think Wii will end up with more games, but more bad games at that. And that is what ticks me off. Can you name a time in videogame history when a console gets the most titles but has the worst selection of games at the same time? There isn't a time in history when that has happened. It is happening with Wii and I'm pissed!

Early in the PS2's life? :roll:

We all know that a consoles earliest games are an indication of what's to come.

I'm talking about the entire lifespan of Wii. Not the early games. PS2 had far more appealing games after 7 1/2 months than Wii does now. PS2 was TAKEN SERIOUSLY when devs saw how well it was selling. Then, more and more great games appeared. This is not going to happen with Wii. Just watch. Even with the amazing popularity of Wii, 3rd party devs STILL won't commit to making great games. Wii has all the potential in the world and it is not being utilized. :evil:

You really couldn't wait 5 more days? You just had to do this now?

its happening right now because devs were caught off gaurd by the wii's success so they have been putting games out on it as quickly as possible, It really takes at least a year if not two years to develope a truely good game. I bet most deves havent even had the full blown wii dev kits nearly that long.

Yeah, I've heard this before. No offense, but every time Iread "caught off guard and needed more time for development" from someone I think damage control. PS3 games are still getting announced left and right when devs know it isn't selling that well. Sorry. There is no logic to it no matter how hard you try. I guess the phenominal E306 showing of Wii, and the huge popularity of Wii at the E3 didn't make developers take notice then either huh? I mean, it has been over a 1 1/2 since the last E3...

Now you're not even trying

The pattern throughout all of videogame history has been this...

The console that sells the most in its lifespan gets the mostappealing games. The console that sells the least in its lifespan gets the worst games. This is changing...

PS3, despite selling somewhat abysmally, will STILL end up with better games than Wii. This is just downright pathetic. Yes, I know I've said this b4, but think about how ridiculous this really is. PS3 could end up with a library half the size of Wii throughout its lifespan. I'm not saying this will happen, but if it does, then PS3 will STILL HAVE A BETTER SELECTION OF GAMES THAN WII. And, no, I'm not a fanboy. I despise Sony. I'm just mad at Nintendo and other 3rd parties who won't even try to make decent games on Wii. So, here it is folks!

Congrats 3rd party Wii devs! You may end up with the most games this gen, but you will also have the worst selection of games this gen as well. And thank you 3rd parties for NEVER TAKING WII SERIOUSLY even though it has potential to bring you the most revenue. Seems so logical! Let's make games SOOOOO TERRIBLE on Wii that people will get turned off from our games, and then stop buying them altogether! Brilliant idea! :roll:

Let's put our heart and souland years of development into PS3 games! Yeah! That makes sense! Let's bust our butts making a game very polished on a console that is failing to sell well! The logic is astounding! :roll:

Yes, I'm bitter.

Wow its amazing how much 360 sold in December. now think of this year which has the most anticipated games for the console in a short period...Halo, GTA and others. Do you think its possible for 360 to sell 2million in December?rzepak

If they drop the price yeah. But I'm more interested in how much wii is going to sell. I mean they're obviously holding units back (1.5 million made/month and 1 million sold/month with a high sell through rate.) and they have some big guns coming.

Hardware Sales

DSL 157,435
Wii 73,919
PSP 38,305
PS2 16,316
PS3 11,914
Xbox360 3,154
GBM 377
GBASP 179
GC 111
DS 45
GBA 16

-cnc-

So everything but the DS and 360 got a bump? Wii got a bigger shipment I guess but what happened with the Playstation family?

edit: Oh and PS3 is over 10K YAY!!!

Really when you think about it Wii could get absolutely no new games and still win japan. Hell if it stopped selling right now it'd probably take a couple of years for sony to catch up. It's done in Japan they've already decided which console they want.
