Here are my quick thoughts on the article

Terrible title. But if you read it, makes some sense.

● http://www.thegamingvault.com/2009/04/evening-topic-wii-games/
Site off line

Joke list story.

Satire. And misinformation.

Hatched job. Yahoo hates the Wii. (I love how Ed Barton calls a game that sold 1M in Japan a failure – but to him that is what Animal Crossing: City Folk for the Wii is)

I have no real idea what this person means. But he is an long-time gamer (had an Atari 2600) and is into PC gaming mostly now.

Author just does not get the Wii.

Little known site, little known writer trying to get traffic with the “conventional wisdom” point-of-view.

Here are my thoughts on the latest rash of articles.

If the Wii is in trouble and it is outselling the PS3 and Xbox 360 combined -- what does that say about the industry?

Mike from Morgantown

Exactly.

 

 

 I totally agreed.
