Are you talking about wii or gamecube? :O I really don't see any difference between last nintendo consoles. Other than the amount of shovelware that is. |
There are a few differeces between the Wii and GC that make a world of difference:
- GC design was atrocious (Purple lunchbox? WTF?) versus a sleek, elegant iPod-esque Wii
- Kiddie Console (marketed almost entirely to the kids that have no $$$) as opposed to marketed to casual adults with plenty of cash
- Better brand image - the DS went a long way of helping repair the Wii's image, IMO, since it's had far more games centered to adults & has had great 3rd party support.
The Wii still lacks the solid core-centric 3rd party titles, which is why the PS3/X360 have had userbases well above what the GC/Xbox did, but otherwise, Nintendo has done a much better job this time of going after marketshare aggressively.
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
