A difference of 1k is definitely something worth celebrating when you consider that the Wii used to commonly outsell the PS3 at least 4:1 in Japan. I think it was even 7:1 or 8:1 at times. Ahh well, it's not like the Wii is supposed to be the market leader or anything.

lol. I agree.

People have really lowering expectations is this isn't something to talk about or mention.

 

That's human nature, happened to all 3, only some level headed fans can see that, most cannot.

So because there were a couple big game launches and a demo, that means that you see no problem in the second place console outselling the market leader? How many times did that happen with the PS2, regardless of what games were released?

 

You're forgetting the Wii isn't as dominant as the PS2.

@Egghead

That's because over here titles can hold over a console afloat for a longer time while in Japan it's totally different...

I mean it's not like after all those big games the PS3 and Wii are only a few k apart. So I don't get the Wii is d00med posts when the other consoles can fall faster.

If what Fila said is true about Golden Week being for children and stuff and the Wii could be on top again, I wonder what kind of comments we'll hear then...

@Ail

Uh...same goes for every other system as well.

 

I'll argue that the Wii was as dominant as the PS2, or maybe even more dominant than the PS2 at one point, and then shit happened, Nintendo rested, and is still resting on their laurels, really they need to wake up. A price cut would certainly help in Japan, it's not like they're losing money per console.
