It doesnt matter what makes no sense to me is the following:

BOTH THE XBOX 360 AND PLAYSTATION 3 HAD a significantly better games lineup than the wii this year, yet it doesnt matter in any single way.

GAMES do not sell consoles anymore

but the name wii does

 

You kind of miss it.

 

Games do no longer really sell (most of) the Wiis.

 

What the early games did, was make the Wii popular. Those games are the most important games in this entire generation.

 

The Wii is selling on its popularity, which it earned by Wii Sports/the other launch games/the remote. All Nintendo has to do is keep the popularity, and that doesn't take the same amount of games as turning popularity around takes.

 

Also, I'm not sure most Wii owners would agree the Ps3 has  a better line-up.

As much as I love Wii, I would love to know which games Wii owners think are on par with PS3 games.

 

I'm generally talking about the increidbly casual crowd. I mean, people who don't buy Batallion Wars 2, because it seems to much like a war sim...

People who in general are in for a 15-25 minute round of fun (which means no major story), and dislike shooting. There's quite a lot of those people. Keep in mind that these people only buy a 3-4 games a year.

 

Personally, I feel they're pretty equal. The Wii's line-up is completely different than the Ps3. I enjoy both kinds of titles, but find them so vastly different that comparing them would be meaningless, and come down to personal preference only.
