While this article can't be proven to be *wrong*, it is just badly written.

-It might be technically correct that "Wii Sports Resort simulates throwing a frisbee for a dog", it is also misleading, and therefore the WRONG thing to write.

-It is also true that importance of upcoming titles is debatable, and "important" doesn't have a strict definition, so he has the "right" to ignore Wii Fit+ WSR, and NSMB, and I have the right to ignore Halo 3 as an important x360 game, but it just conflicts with COMMON SENSE!

-Everyone is allowed to write an article selectively about Wii's bad last quarter, but don't expect it to be called a GOOD article if you ignore the bigger picture.

Journalism is not supposed to be about throwing "technically correct" sentences together, it should provide information. People who don't know much about the game industry, only read this article, would get the impression that Nintendo is on the edge of going bankrupt. The writer could say "well, those readers would be uninformed idiots", but it is HIS job to inform them, and he FAILED.

Some of you said something along the lines of "journalism is sensationalist, live with it".
NO! Sensationalism is a negative attribute. There are more sensationalist, and less sensationalist articles, and we should encourage the latter, and criticize the former.
