Oh, if we are counting PC games too then Kwaad, you can add a few hundred onto my list as well.

I have owned Nintendo 64, Gamecube, GBA, and now a DS and a Wii. I plan to get a 360 next year, and if my dad ever needs a blu-ray player, I´ll convince him to get a ps3,  also to get MGS4 (never played one of the series but I´ve heard very good stuff about it), a Kingdom Hearts game if it shows in there, and maybe Lair, controlling a dragon sounds pretty cool.

 I usually get about 5-10 games per year, planning to increase that to 12-15 ( I get about 80 bucks per month by teaching my bro), and maybe borrow games from friends ( there are no game rentals in my country, and I´m against piracy. Half of them are likely to be Nintendo games, others will be third part games (Godfather will be one of them).

 I think Godfather hasn´t sold that well because 1) An important part of Wii owners are non-gamers, or not so hardcore ones, and a game like Godfather is definitely not aimed to that market. Most ps3 owner are more "mature" gamers, and probably ps2 owners. They´ll probably buy most games that are like GTA, until its arrival during october.

2) The praise for Godfather controls has been made specially by reviewers and game forums, and I´m pretty sure most of console owner don´t check those places.

3) It is a port, so most people who really wanted it already owned it on ps2 or 360.

I have a Wii and 6 games. 13 more on the VC. I have a DS with 11 games.

Had a Gamecube, Tons of stuff for it. GBA with 7 games.

I've got a wii i get 1 game about every 3-6 months (so far i got only the games i bought at launch zelda and rayman, im planning to get wariowares at some point), im hoping to get ps3 when prices are lower and ill prob get a game every 2-3 months for that (havent made a list yet of which games i want but definatly the new FF games). I dont have a 360 and dont plan on getting one anytime soon. Ive got a ds and a psp also i get a game for ds every 2 months and 1 for psp every month or so. (ive got too many handheld games to count) 

Ive previously owned a NES a SNES and the original gameboy, i skipped a few gens after that and i have a ps2 that i still get games for but quite rarely.

There really isn't anything surprising about it at all. I discussed this a little while ago regarding the good Madden sales on PS3.

The reason? It's not about the user base, it about the user who will buy a certain kind of game. So what if the Wii has 2x as much of a user base? For asssumption's sake, say half of them are hardcore gamers (too high but anyway). These people have a certain chance of actually buying Godfather, while the rest of them, has 0% chance. For the PS3, let's say you only have hardcore gamers. Well, then, basically you have the same target audience base for both platforms.

Indeed, I'm surprised that the two figures are so close--but in my viewpoint, it's a sign that that hardcore gamers are buying into the Wii console concept.

In Wii's case, Godfather, No More Heroes, Manhunt II and this continuous trickling line of M rated titles WILL sway hardcore gamers to buy a Wii. It's funny, people keep talking about system sellers and killer apps, but in thise case, it's about footsoldiers.

This line of reasoning predicts that a platform neutral game will sell in proportion to the console numbers. I'd say... Transformers is somewhat platform neutral, just a little bit tilted towards ps3/360. That means I expect it to sell about the same ratio as the number of each consoles sold, but about 20% lower for the Wii, i.e. if Wii:PS3 ratio is around 2:1, sales I expect to be around 1.6:1.

And toward end of the year to 2008, if a game like Godfather is released, the ratio will become more and more in line with the number of consoles sold as hardcore gamers start to embrace the Wii.

By the same token, if MySims is released on both the PS3 and the Wii, the Wii sales will utterly trounce PS3 MySims sale. It makes for an easy decision for EA then--just develop for the Wii.

godfather on the wii didn't sell because wii owners who would be into it already bought the game for ps2 or 360. 

I was checking out Madden sales... and in terms of lifetime sales, PS3 and Wii are about equal.

However, the PS3 version has fallen off the weekly chart whereas the Wii one is still selling ~8000.

The Wii Madden has a much longer tail.

For whatever it's worth, Madden is less "hardcore" than Godfather in my "calculations".  That means, I expect Godfather Wii to have a even longer tail than Madden Wii in comparison to the PS3 versions because of the hardcore player penetration effect.

Well, I plan on buying a Wii as soon as they become available at Best Buy (not that I like Best Buy; I hate them actually...but I have $250 in gift cards to use there).

Consoles owned: well, it's a lot.  Everything from Atari VCS, a lovely beige TI-99/4A, Colecovision, Vectrex to Playstation 2, GameCube and everything pretty much in between.  A bunch of portables like DS, GG, TurboExpress and Lynx as well (always prefered non-Nintendo handhelds until GBA).

Games total?  Hmm, I have over 700 NES games alone, so it's probably somewhere around 1,500+.  Yes, I know that's insane. :D

How many per year?  It really depends...when I was building my collections of older games it was a lot more than now, when I basically wait for a sale/clearance.  Maybe 30?  Probably more. 

 then what about the PS3 buyers?  why did they buy it when they've probably bought the game for ps2?  the effect is about the same for both consoles, unless you argue for a really, really strong the Wii60 effect, which, in my estimate, is minor.

I have a Wii... I'm the type that skipped console gaming totally after NES.  And I only own a Wii because it's something I can't do on the PC.

Games?  Half of them gifts.  They are: Warioware, Rayman, Monkey Ball, Elebits, NFS, TW 07.  Plus a ton of VC games.  Funny thing is, my wife is more of a gamer than I am; she's played through 2 VC Zelda and will play Zelda Wii at some point.  (I was hoping to get that as a gift but got Monkey Ball instead...)

And because of the Wii, I went out and bought a DS.  Actually I got one for my wife (back then fiancee) first as a gift (the Pink one, of course!!!).  Then I went out and bought myself a DS.  And now... we have like 10 DS games.  All the staples: Brain Age, New Super Mario, Elite Beat Agents, Phoenix Wright 1&2, etc.  Notably, no Nintendog

 I didn't completely skip everything between NES and the Wii though.  I bought a PS1 a few years back, just to play DDR.  I bought it when the console cost $40 and the game with 2 pads cost $60.

   No plans on getting a PS3 or and 360.  The only reason for the Wii is because of motion sensitivity.  The only reason for the PS1 purchase was DDR.

  How many games will I purchase a year?  When there's one I want, I'll get it.  I don't play that many games, so money won't be an issue.  100% sure I'll get DDR Wii when it comes out!  Maybe Guitar Hero.  Maybe one of those Wii Health Pack... maybe Wii Music, but that's because I want my wife to have a better appreciate of music.

(Oh yeah, Guitar Hero should be platform neutral.)
