help me, I can't still understand the reason why wii is selling so much

I hope it's not too offensive of me to doubt the OP's intentions and story.

I think at 35, people tend to understand that different games and experiences appeal to different folks. Also, someone of that age whose been a life-long gamer should know that a game system will have a multitude of different types of games on it -- if you don't like Wii Sports, that's fine, but you don't therefore conclude that there must be nothing worthwhile on the Wii. Also, if you are a 35 year old, and a life-long gamer, but you've always avoided the Nintendo label because, for whatever asinine reason, you don't like their products... then you'd already know why you don't like the Wii, and you wouldn't be questioning your love of video games & asking strangers for their advice on the matter. Also, someone whose "dedicated [their] life to videogames" since the late 70s shouldn't let, say, Wii's graphical capabilities get in the way of their having fun very much. Pac-Man's still Pac-Man, and still fun, and hardcore gamers from back in the day should feel me on that.

In short, I don't buy it. This guy doesn't sound at all like a 35 year old to me, let alone one with a lifetime of videogame love.
