This generation is a weird one to watch. Has there ever been any other leading system in the history of video games that has been hated with an almost religious conviction like the Wii has experienced? So many people seem to want the Wii to die in a fire, despite the fact that it is the fastest selling console of all time. Instead, everyone rallies around a system that has a failure rate estimated to exceed 50%, and amalgamates the opposition into a single bloc, spinning the numbers every which way to try and show that the Wii is losing. All this while doing their best to ignore the fact that the Wii accounts for nearly half the entire market, and commands a 20+ million system lead over the second place system that grows every day.

If there are any psychology majors around, maybe you could make this into a case study for a term paper :P


People who hate the Wii with an ''almost religious conviction'' are mainly a bunch of nerds on the Internet (like those guys from Gametrailers). Most of people in the real world enjoy playing Wii and don't want it to fail.
