Everyone gets so uptight when an article about the Wii falling is released. All you people are doing is eating out of the hands of the writer.

There is no reason to worry though. Say tommorrow the wii sales drop off to zero. No one wants it anymore. People avoid it like the plague. Will you still play your wii? Will it be any less of a console? Will the wii be a failure? Will it confirm that the wii is a fad?

 

Those are serious questions you need to ask yourself. If wii sales are the determing factor on why you buy and play games on a system then you seriously need to rethink your gamer status.

If you believe the wii is a failure if it suddenly drops off, consider that gamecube sold less than half of what the wii did and was still profitable to Nintendo.

So what if people think the wii is a fad? Does that make you any less of a person for following a fad? Lots of people got into pogs, yo yos, yugioh, and bell bottom pants. I guess that makes them mindless sheep who need to be locked up immediately for being mentally unstable. Also just because something is a fad doesn't make it any less fun.

 

What I am trying to say is that even if the wii is doomed it won't fail. The wii has sold almost 50 million units. It has some of the best selling games this generation. It has expanded the market. Not to mention the wii has some great games. The wii has over doubled the gamecube sales, it makes a profit on each sale, and even if the wii does stop selling it would take years for the 360 and PS3 to catch up. So relax, enjoy brawl, and stop worrying about all the "Wii are doomed" articles.

finally, someone with a brain!

i said this before:

even if Wii sells 0 hardware from now on, 50m is more than enough to consider a system as "successful"

having games like Zelda: 5m, SSBB: 8M, Mario Galaxy: 8m, Mario Kart: 15m, Wii Fit: 18m

even if all these titles stop selling right now, they are still successful, more than Killzone 2 or Gear of War or Fallout 3 or whatever, Wii is a success for Nintendo, and no stupid article can change it, i wonder if people writing these articles have a brain

 

and it's true, people should stop these articles, Wii is already a success
