"@ Everyone who thinks the PS3 will outsell the wii. Mwahahahahahahahahahahahahha. I cant believe that is stil going on after all this time. My end of gen predictions and LT predictions."
The thing is most of you seem to think is that the Wii is predestined to sell some staggeringly high amount like it's the second coming of Christ or something. But the thing is Nintendo really blew it at this year's E3. They promised tons of high quality games for their core fans, then they totally failed to deliver on this. Then they failed to deliver again at Leipzig and at the recent TGS. All Nintendo fans were clamoring for Kingdom Hearts III to come to their system but there weren't any Square games announced for the Wii at E3, Leipzig, or the recent TGS. It seems that Square is either going to be able to do things right this gen or they're going to wait until some point in the future to do them.
In the meantime Nintendo continues to try to get by on watered down versions of past successes eg. Animal Crossing (designed soley to take advantage of their latest internet speech gimmick) or pablum like Wii Music which is really failing to live up to the sales of past "Wii" games. Reduced sales for the system in Japan, poor sales for Wii Music, no exclusive AAA core third-party game (most of its recently announced games actually seem to be rather average survival horror type games with only 8.5 or so at most potential), are all indications that people are waking up to the Wii's shortcomings and that the system is in need of a price cut if it wants try to continue its past success.
My most anticipated games: Whatever Hideo Kojima is going to do next, Final Fantasy XIII, Final Fantasy Versus XIII, Gran Turismo 5, Alan Wake, Wii Sports Resort. Cave Story Wiiware.
