He wrote, "then it's a trend that may translate globally down the line. Nintendo is going to have to act fast to stem the PS3's progress in the Japanese market if they are to retain their market-leading position long-term." What in Gods name is the logic behind that vast ignorance? Is up down? Down up? The impossible possible? Nintendo could drop software support for the Wii right now, and it would still outsell the PS3 this gen, just on brand power, assuming someone was willing to manufacture it. Get this straight, the 360, nor the PS3 have any chance of outselling the Nintendo Wii this generation. Even if Iwata himself showed up at every potential Wii customers house and took a shit on their welcome mats. It would still outsell the PS3 this generation, because IT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED! The winner of this gen is DETERMINED. There are no miracles of record in recorded history that even approach the level of suspended disbelief it would take to actually think the Wii would not win this generation, in raw userbase. Just because you don't want something to be true, doesn't mean you can change it with propaganda. |
haha LOL
"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."
