some people here complain that the wii will not have the market share that the ps2 had so what? the wii already did way far beyond than what ANYONE expected even nintendo. for a console that came from last place the last gen and less than 20%a 50% is a great achivement. it already doubled the gamecube sales. and it is not going to be forgotten.

 

 of course the wii will not have ps2's market share, it will surpass it...

 

You're kidding right? The wii may outsell ps2 but it's inability to be a stand alone/primary console for a lot of gamers would ensure it never gets to thatkind of marketshare.

Most people who bought ps2s never bought any other console but a much greater % of wii owners have either a ps3 or 360 or both which gimps the wiis ability to gain marketshare.

 

 Not really, if gamers have a ps3 or 360 and a Wii at the same time then the sales should be even with the Wii but thats not whats happening right now and the Wii userbase keeps growing. If you compared it to the PS2 then thats a different topic.

And if somehow someone posts "third parties/core gamers dont sell on the Wii"  and "the Wii have no  3rd party support" meme then why posting in  this thread?!! Thats been debunked over and over...



end of core gaming days prediction:

 

E3 2006-The beginning of the end. Wii introduced

 

E3 2008- Armageddon. Wii motion plus introduced. Wii Music. Reggie says Animal crossing was a core game. Massive disappointment. many Wii core gamers selling their Wii.

 

E3 2010- Tape runs out
