Similarities between last Gen and this Gen..

[PSwii60]

hahah!
Wii in a way is the PS2: sales-wise in hardware

and as far as games, Wii is just doing it in reverse.
PS2 attracted the hardcore in the beginning and later started catering to the casuals whereas Wii started attracting the casual market and later on, they will start catering and attracting to the hardcores more...

besides, wii is on the same boat as ds:
understated, underestimated, and overall misjudged..
just working it's way up to the top (i mean higher insales in general)

IMO
just my take on it =)
