The top 3 Wii "hardcore" games have sold more than the top 3 core games on either the PS3 or 360..Or are we not counting first party titles? Also the Wii has missed the GTA4's, RE5's and the like. Wii's either been overlooked all together, or given some shitty port or crummy spin off.

The core titles on Wii that sell tons are usually Nintendo's own products not just because they are revered franchises but because the games are top notch. Nintendo puts their best foot forward always on their products which is why they are revered. People always say "oh its Mario of course its gonna sell" "Or oh its Wii-whatever, of course its gonna sell" But the fact is it isn't as one dimensional as that, the games are quality.

If third parties are going to treat the Wii like a bastardized step child then their games' sales will reflect that.

Sometimes great games don't catch on, and that is a shame, but that is not a phenomena exlcusive to the Wii, this is a fact that has been with us since the pong days.



Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:


If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.

If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
