1.) You think the Wii Hardware is state of the art?

2.) See this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_EyeToy_games
And I apologize they inventited widespread Family Games on the CONSOLE, it was wrong to say that they invented family games as general term. But I thought it was clear from the context. Yes Nintendo was first in Japan and has a long history about the japanese Card game HANAFUDA..

3.) The most Wii owner I knew do not know something about FullHD, HDMI, etc.

4.) Hardwarewise the Gamecube was no match to the PS2 or XBOX. Of course because of the low price they sold quite a lot. I remember the Zelda series, which was quite good game, but textures were ridicolous compared to the other consoles. But there were quite good games. On the quality of game content they matched the others on many areas, I agree, but from image quality point of view....

5.) Let's say it otherwise: People discussing here are already a very limited population, people here are Hardcore Games and Fanboys, not the casual Gamers. The casual Gamers go not to post in Forums about their consoles. So, of course the People here a Wii Hardcore Gamers or Fanboys (not as negative term used here). But the majority of Wii buyers are just NOT YOU, but the people which would never know Sites like vgchartz. So you are the Elite, the exception to the standard Wii users, for PS3 and XBOX360 I think this is quite different. To expensive for leisure suit larry.

6.) I agree partly, but Gran Turismo 5 would be impossible on a Wii. Many games can not even realized on the Wii which exist on the others. And often even when they exist, they share the same name, but the Wii version is just a shadow of the other versions.

7.) Of course they are, but they had already tough years, the PS2 put them almost out of business. They wanted even to leave the Console Hardware business after the Gamecube and concentrate on software, because they could not finance to develop a NextGen console. But they made an incredible clever move which turned into an incredible success.

8.) They may... I agree, and I think they will, but this will not continue very long anymore...

 

I don't know if to laugh, cry, or just facepalm.  But I figure either you're not half the "hardcore" gamer you claim to be as you know nothing or just a troll right now I believe it's the second choice.
