Except I think the lineup of both other consoles is better for the rest of the year.

It's only Wiimageddon to people who believe what you believe same way some people think the end of the world can come at any moment. It's reality to them.

You do realise that in terms of critical response, sales, and fanbase anticipation, the Wii's upcoming holiday lineup is probably the strongest in the history of gaming? There are at least 3 games coming that will almost certainly beat 5 million sold, and around half a dozen that have an excellent shot at the million barrier.

Let's look at Game Ranking's all-time top ten best reviewed games list. The successors of two of those games are coming out on the Wii, and there are several others that have a chance of being decent to superb.

The Xbox 360 is doing ok as well, since one of the games just came out a week ago, and another is getting a sequel in a month or so, but the PS3 has absolutely nothing comparable. There are something like 5 games in the probable 80-90 with maybe one that will be remembered in a year's time, and that's assuming even more of them don't get bumped to 08.

Some bias is inevitable in discussing things like these, but please try to keep some perspective of things. The horrible casual Nintendo monster isn't going to eat your games or anything.

 

Btw I was out of console gaming for a few years, and would very much be interested if anyone can think of a holiday lineup anywhere near comparable. Don't think there is one, but would be interesting to do some comparisons.
