The GS employee fed you a line of total BS, probably an xbot you were dealing with.

But yeah, had the Wii failed, I thought it might be Nintendo's last HOME console as well, considering how well the handheld sector was doing.

If the home console market was going to prove a money sink, the investors would be pushing Nintendo to axe it altogether and focus on the far more lucrative handheld market.



"I mean, c'mon, Viva Pinata, a game with massive marketing, didn't sell worth a damn to the "sophisticated" 360 audience, despite near-universal praise--is that a sign that 360 owners are a bunch of casual ignoramuses that can't get their heads around a 'gardening' sim? Of course not. So let's please stop trying to micro-analyze one game out of hundreds and using it as the poster child for why good, non-1st party, games can't sell on Wii. (Everyone frequenting this site knows this is nonsense, and yet some of you just can't let it go because it's the only scab you have left to pick at after all your other "Wii will phail1!!1" straw men arguments have been put to the torch.)" - exindguy on Boom Blocks
