Thank you for your kind reply. I agree with you to a point. I know this is going to sound fanboyesque (cool a new word), but I (a Wii owner, but also a PS3 and 360 owner) believe that the success of Wii will lead to the moving of games that could be made with solid gameplay and graphics being downgraded to accomodate the Wii's capabilities. The Wii's current success is no doubt from word of mouth, or demonstration at a friends house, its cool and very fun for certain types of games, usually played with friends (Rayman Raving Rabbids, Elebits, Cooking Mama, etc). Now before someone comes in saying that I don't like the "friend" console because I don't have any friends, don't be a retarded monkey :). I guess what I see happening is third parties devoting alot of time and resources to make great "Wii-Style" games, but these would be new, rather than diverted resources. So in other words, its shaping up to be two console wars. Wii wins one by default, because everyone, gamer, nongamer, hardcore, etc, will buy the Wii. The other question is who wins the "other" console war, Xbox 360 or PS3?
Is it possible that ultimately Wii gets numbers like the PS2 did minus the so-called "hardcore" crowd? And that PS360 (either combined or separately) gets numbers like the PS2 did minus the so-called "casual" crowd?
P.S. I just patented the word "fanboyesque" j/k
