| GranTurismo said: All logic points to the failure of the wii, with very poor third party support for the system and its sports titles are just last gens ports unlike the 360/PS3 versions. |
Outselling the competition combined on a weekly basis and capturing the bulk of new third party development points to the failure of the Wii? By the end of March 2008 the Wii will have outsold the XBox 360 and PS3 combined on a worldwide basis; in the months that follow the Wii will become the dominant console in every market and soon pass combined sales of the XBox 360 and PS3 in every market.
The fact of the matter is that the majority of third party development is still being focused on the PS2 and most of that is going to shift towards the Wii over the next couple of years due to its impressive sales; in 2009/2010 (when people expect the PS3 and XBox 360 to 'Magically' comeback) the Wii will have more games being released that are exclusive to the Wii than the XBox 360 and PS3 have being released between either system. You will have systems which are selling for $100+ more than the Wii which have far fewer games being released and (more importantly) far fewer good games being released.
The sales ratios between these consoles are currently the best the PS3 and XBox 360 will ever see.
