Didn't Wii M+ come out? Wasn't that meant to boost sales or something?

Anyway I think at this point we will definately see a Wii price cut this year. They just built bigger factories, it costs them more to not drop the price that to drop the price.

I don't see why Wii M+ would make much difference, especially short term.

I mean, you either are into waggle already, or you are not.  If you already are, then you already have a wii.  It's too soon for skeptics to suddenly say, "Oh wow!  This will be what I want, I have resisted waggle until this awsome tech!".  If M+ makes a difference, it will take weeks if not months to make a difference in sales.

 


Well that's common sense but half the VGC belived Wii will explode after M+ is released :D

 

Maybe some people who wanted to buy Wii are waiting for MS/Sony motion controls now ?

Ummm...maybe you haven't noticed but Wii sports resort is coming out next month, I think you confused WM+ with Wii Sports Resort.

 

Hardware doesn't push consoles, Software does
