Forums - Website Topics - PROOF THAT VGZHARTZ IS FULL OF NINTENDO FANOBOYS!!!!!!!!!

Also, I'd argue that the site IS NOT Nintendo biased. It's just Wii biased. The DS doesn't get nearly the publicity it deserves - it's the fastest selling videogame system ever, and it's breaking far more barriers than any system ever in history, yet we always see 5 million "OMGZ Wii is going to with the Plaxstation wars and beat Mitrosoft, and sell 200 million unitz!"

....

When the fact is that the DS nearly has that one locked up, and the only reason anyone ever believes that is the DS started the idea, and ability of being able to sell that much. Despite ths, only 7% of the responders to the poll said the DS was their favorite system - despite the fact the DS still has the best range of great software out there, even over consoles.


No one here discusses games like Professor Layton totally smashing tons of 3rd party barriers in Japan, and nearly outselling many Nintendo titles, or great games like Archaic Sealed Heat. The DS is typically out-selling every other system combined on many weeks, but that's never emphasised here. Why is that? It's not because everyone jumps on the fanboy DS/Nintendo bandwagon, but because the Wii has came from no where, and sold real well. When something like that happens, fanboys always come from nowhere and say "OMGZ, the Wii is the OWNZORS" or whatever lingo they prefer.

The exact same thing happened in 1995 when the Playstation started gaining ground on the Genesis/SNES owned US and PAL territories and took the world by storm. It's just part of life that we have to deal with.

Also, one just has to look at the thread count, and post count of all the game forums to see which one is most, and least discussed. The X360 is vastly behind the Nintendo (with only 2 viable platforms) and the Sony forums (with 3 viable platforms for discussion).



Back from the dead, I'm afraid.

Around the Network

^^ agree.



i think part of the reason no fanboy talks up the ds is cos no matter what its won this gen without a problem. console, is however a bit more competitive



 

 

 

 

 

Check out my pyro tf2 vid :)

 

Bet With routsounmanman: By the end of Q1 2008 Capcom WONT have announced a RE5 Wii Edition OR a new RE (classic gameplay) for the Wii (WON)

 

@mrstickball

lmao!!



 

mM

@mrstickball: I was one of them. I was one of the 7% who voted DS. Wii still has a LOT to prove.



Around the Network

There are at least 117mil people who play a game console (PS2 hardware).

According to the poll, 21.18% should get Halo on launch day.

I'll do some rounding and say 21% of 100mil...

So if Halo doesn't sell at least 21 mil copies on launch day, this site is XBOX biased!

Do you really expect it to sell over 21 Mil on launch day????

 I'm sorry, but 61% saying they don't care about Halo is just not reflective of public opinion.

And 70%+ saying don't care or MAY get it also ridiculous.

 So unless Halo flops big time, I'm afraid this site is full of Nintendo fanboys (or Sony fanboys, I guess, but come on, they don't exist).

 [with that said, I like this site a lot. This is just a little bit ridiculous]

 


You're forgetting Sony fanboys



@mr money:
So you have thought that 50 per cent of people is going ot buy Halo 3? Or maybe 70 per cent? Intresting. Actually more than 25 per cent of people saying they are going to buy Halo 3 indicates overrepresentations of Xbox owners.
And you thought there are no Wii or Sony fans on this site? Its a video game site afterall so what were are expecting? And 60 per cent isn't that much - you have PS owners in this group also.
And no every Xbox owners must play FPS.

Number of copies of Halo 2 sold on the XBox: 8.28 Million
Number of XBox systems sold: 24.76 Million
Percentage of XBox onwers who did not care about halo: 66%
