The DS is one of the poster children as to why talk like this is ridiculous. The same talk the same bull shit articles were popping up, the same fad talk. I mean the PSP was supposed to dominate the DS and early on it had some weeks or months ahead, mainly when the DS was experiencing a gaming drought. Then the flood came and WAM 100m units.
Plagued with "mini games" and "casual crap" the DS is now the darling of the industry. With perhaps the most diverse gaming library in the history of any system, handheld or console. But no way will the Wii have a similar situation, even though everything occuring is damn near identical. I honestly think the only difference is that the Wii has two competitors in the console market and the DS has on competitor in the handheld market.
Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:
If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.
If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
