You just stated it in your post that software is the sales driving force behind the Wii, despite trying to get your words back in the next sentence, by stating your opinion on the relative quality of Wiis library. Wii is selling because of its superior games library, Wii Sports, Wii Fit and Mario Kart Wii being the main sales driving factors, whether you like it or not. The thing is, that the audience PS360 is tapping, is the audience that has always been the minority of the market. Basically the audience that PS360 tries to expand to, is PC "hardcore" audience, which propably goes back to their PC:s after there's noticeably difference in graphical quality in favor of PC once again. |
@bdbd The only thing is Wii Sports, Wii Fit, and Mario Kart Wii aren't superior games to what is available on the 360 and PS3. Otherwise they would have much higher scores than they do at Game Rankings.
@DrJay, These games might provide better entertainment for some people. But, I don't think you get the same social interaction playing Wii Bowling at home that you get in playing at a Bowling Alley. Also, you don't get the same satisfaction as knowing you're strong enough to pick up a real bowling ball and and in knocking down real pins.
I looked at the Malstom articles. I hope he is right that the Wii is following the DS trajectory because that would mean less Wii Sports and Wii Play games in the future for the Wii and more real games like a 3d remake of Final Fantasy VI with graphics better than the PS2 FF games.
Heavens to Murgatoids.
