Wiisistance is futile, Wiimageddon is almost upon us...

It is amazing how some people like ckmlb flip out into a multi-console fight when someone mentions a happy note on the Wii.

Fact- People have been dogging the Wii all year for being in a drought. That is officially over with the release of MP3.

Fact- There are many games that are system movers. Believe it or not there are plenty of Mario/Metroid fans that only show up when those games are released. The depth of the Wii library is more dramatically increased than an older system like the 360.

Fact- I agree this is not a great list if you are talking Holiday '07 games only. People seem happy to point out the games on the list which wont make it but what about others left off that will. I personally am buying Dragon Blade(I consider a potential sleeper hit) and my wife is all over Rayman 2 (First one was a million seller on the Wii with a smaller install base).

Fact- Wii is getting great press, word of mouth, and sold out status even with increased shipments.

So yes a great selling, innovative, well received. affordable, mass market system with 8 million selling games is getting a pile of good games deserves some sort of Armageddon moniker.

I am not about to pick a fight and say one system has a better holiday lineup because I think all systems are giving their fans exactly what they want this Christmas, so consequently whatever system you like the most appears to have the best lineup. I will say it is the best holiday lineup in history if you talk about all gaming, but not so if you just give that title to one system.

At this point it is Wii's generation to lose and a holiday lineup like this will keep it on it's winning ways.
