Forums - Sales Discussion - Weekly Poll - lack of understanding or fanboyism?

FishyJoe on 13 June 2008

Which of these will be the top seller of 2008 worldwide?

Grand Theft Auto IV (PS3)1,19613.51%
 
Grand Theft Auto IV (Xbox360)2,32826.30%
 
Mario Kart Wii (Wii)5426.12%
 
Metal Gear Solid 4 (PS3)1,79920.33%
 
Super Smash Bros Brawl (Wii)1,23313.93%
 
Wii Fit (Wii)1,75319.81%
 

Do people honestly believe at this point the 360 or PS3 GTAIV is going to be the best seller or did they not understand that the GTAIV selection is for individual platforms. Because at this point I see no possible way any single platform versions of GTAIV is going to outsell any of the Nintendo games. 

And did people select MGS4 because they are just voting for their favorite game or do they really believe it?

A lot of fanboyism, anyway I always vote for SSBB in that poll.

lol this has already been mentioned months ago. This weekly poll has been up since Jan.

i agree with you, we should take out both ps3 and 360 games out, it's all about Nintendo now.

Relax it's a poll.

Yeah, Brawl will probably get it, maybe Wii Fit if sales are strong all year. This poll is really damn old, so I don't think you can hold anybody's feet to the fire over it.



We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls.  The only thing that really worried me was the ether.  There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke

It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...."  Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson

The poll has been up forever, there was already a thread made like this, and the conclusion should be obvious to you. You always act baffled by fanboyism, which confuses me more than fanboyism itself must absolutely puzzle you.

Sorry, didn't realize how old it was. But does anyone still think a non-Nintendo game is going to win?



steverhcp02 on 13 June 2008

its "fanboyism" and i know im going to get my head bitten off for this next comment but i firmly believe its the truth. the reason the wii games sell so well isnt because its being bought by internet poll voting demographics. Thats not an insult before everyone gets defensive.

I don't see why so few people have voted for Mario Kart it is basicly a race between Mario Kart Wii and Super Smash Bros Brawl

Fanboys do not like being told cold hard facts it upsets them.
