IMO, I think 60% of the reason the Wii is selling so well is the price, not the software or controller. |
So why did their previous consoles sell so much worse than the Wii? The same for other previous consoles from other companies. |
Because the other console (PS) was about the same price not $300 more expensive. Note that the most expensive console was the Saturn and look what happened to that despite its early release. The PS also appealed to people who liked having CDs as the media, for various unsaid reasons. |
When you read my post, it should be obvious that I'm telling you to compare it with cheaper consoles, no? Or are you saying the Wii is the cheapest console ever? BTW, the PS is not a Nintendo console as far as I know... |
Maybe Im a bit slow but where in the following quote do you state to compare to "cheaper consoles?"
|
Well, for example in the part where I say "their previous consoles"? "Their" being "Nintendo's". Is that explicit enough for you?
It's also a matter of logic, if I'm making the point that price is not the biggest factor for a console selling well (in the specific case of the Wii), it's natural to use cheaper consoles as potential evidence.
