What's sad about this piece is that it was originally intended to be satire. That is, Gamespot not only didn't believe the Wii would do much of anything in the current market, Gamespot was openly mocking the very things that have been moving consoles: affordable software, cheap development costs, innovative controls, etc. I've had difficulty taking Gamespot seriously ever since they posted this.
...well, that and the fact that Gamespot got caught revealing that they sell their review scores to publishers.
