Wow, I though that after a year the stupidity in the VGchartz forum would have gone down, but apparantly its still here.

Yes Wii will eventually slow down, all consoles slow down, even PS2 and NES slowed down.

However PS3 and 360 will not outsell the Wii, at least not on a regular basis, maybe once or twice a year when a big game comes out or a huge price drop occurs, but on a regular basis, nope.

See the key is most people don't care about HD graphics or other such garbage found on the PS3 and 360. Most people care about fun, and aren;t interested in plunking down hours trying to grind their way through Gears, what they want is a quick game of Wii tennis or a jog in Wii fit, to race around in Mario Kart or to go fishing in Animal crossing. These types of games don't require huge investment of time or effort to achieve fun. And they can fit easily into a person's day.

If anything its the 360 and PS3 which are nearing or at their peaks and will likely be slowing down in the next year or two.
