The difference is that the predictions for the Wii and DS were made before the systems' releases.

Now, almost one year AFTER release, the PS3 is dead in the water.

The console wars have already been decided.

1 yearafther the release of the DS , the fight was still undecided ...


 A technicality, because the PSP was released roughly a year after the DS. Shortly after, however, Nintendogs and Animal Crossing pretty much single-handedly decided the "handheld wars." Just as Wii Sports single-handedly decided this one.



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
