Prices of controllers

[dgm6780]

1. The HDTV argument doesnt hold water because if you are calculating startup costs for each system you would buy a HDTV for the Wii too. Prices dictate that any new tv purchase is going to be an HDTV. I never said anything to the effect that a PS3 comes with a hdtv.

2. Out of the top selling games for the Wii - the only ones I will concede have a strong single player are Mario Galaxy, Mario Kart, and Zelda. Brawl is close, so throw that in too.

3. You said "I was focusing on party games" the point is that everyone is. All my friends and the sales chart prove this.

4. What is WMP? But here are links to all prices I posted.

sqrl - You are the one trying to deny facts. Do you need more citations? How is it not logical to calculate in the cost of extra controllers when considering startup costs of a wii? And I see you dropped your point that people are buying a wii for the single player experience of Tony Hawks Downhilll Jam, Medal of Honor, Red Steel and Manhunt 2. lol

and making my daughters wii my main console has nothing to do with my ability to judge how expensive something is. I am the one paying for this stuff - unlike most these 14 year old wii boys on here. Which makes me more qualifed to talk on this subject then the 14 year old with no job that plays the wii 8 hours a day.


@reptile - no you are 100% wrong.
