Nintendo 1st party exclusives destroy Sony 1st party exclusives...

My dear MBP, you know how much I respect and love you but I'm afraid this thread is about 3rd party exclusives. 1st party exclusives are irrelevant.

But it's not... it's selectively exclusive, and therein lies the fault of this whole thread! If it would be TRULY about 3rd party exclusives you'd exclude those titles that appear on ANY OTHER console (say, most of those of the PS3 since they also appear on Xbox360)

Didn't you hear, there's a new 'exclusive' definition in town.

Yeah, and it's wrong - an abomination!! You really shouldn't encourage it pezus... that's like feeding a gremling after mid night... (psssst! baaad idea!!)

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.

That's the best comparison for now... no bundled game like Wii Sports.

Just Dance is really big.

All of the facts in the OP are indeed factual. I don't think facts have an agenda to make one console look better.

While true, it still is off-topic. You're obviously trying to stretch the rules of the thread to make the Wii look better.

What? like this whole topic is trying to make PS3 look better?

Here is a solution to all of our problems: http://gamrconnect.vgchartz.com/thread.php?id=147461

OFF WITH $ony and their 100s of new IPs to take our $$$$ away from us!

Long live Nintendomination!

Facts don't have an agenda no, but they can easily be twisted and appear as such.

Oh good, a response thread. These always turn out great.

We'll leave the thread open for now... as long as discussion sticks to the topic and is civil. Over and out.

Good numbers for a dust collector-casual machine.
Bad sales for a proper supported console.

Edit: ^Too late.

Proud to be the first cool Nintendo fan ever

Number ONE Zelda fan in the Universe

DKCTF didn't move consoles

Prediction: No Zelda HD for Wii U, quietly moved to the succesor

Predictions for Nintendo NX and Mobile

How are they twisted? It's just a comparison between the 3rd party games on one console that aren't on another. What's the problem?

had he said 3rd party games ONLY I wouldn't object, but he clearly states exclusive 3rd part titles - but GTA and most of those games aren't exclusive! that's my beef with this topic :P

Because people seem to buy Nintendo systems for Nintendo games. See Wii Sports.

No.

People buy Nintendo Systems for Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, Donkey Kong, Fire Emblem, Pikmin, Kirby, Metroid, Super Smash Bros, Mario Kart, Mario Sports, and Mario.

Yes I said Mario twice because:

Yeah right. Not even you believe this
