1. Then how wii is selling now less than 2008 when it was supply constrained? It should sell more, right?
2. Sequels aren't system sellers. NSMB wii? I don't see that moving a lot of consoles.
3. How many times we have heard that it is not about the price... when wii was the cheapest console, many argued that price was not the selling point of wii. 50$ is not big enough cut to get a big boost for any console.
4. lolwut.... generally, that sums it up.

1. This cannot be taken as important without considering parts 2 and 3.
2. Sequels may not bring in tons of new people, but in combination they help keep value for the hardware up and that with a massive game like NSMB will cause many a system to sell.
3. Price isnt important, but value is. Hence why @ $250 Wii with far inferior specs and general features still outsells the PS360 regularly. It's value is percieved as greater to the general consumer. Well, the $250 valued consumers is about dried up for Wii based on its current feature set and games. So, not its time to hit the next level of consumers @ $200. Plus, there are tons who would buy it at $150 or so, that will be pushed to pay $200 given certain games, like NSMBWii.
4. Seriously, that's all you got. I put out a ton of evidence and sales facts for two generations and all you can say is "lolwut.... generally, that sums it up." Guess from your avatar and mannerisms I should have realized your level of thinking. So take a good look at my avatar and RESPECT MY AUTHORATAH!!!!!!

2. If those games aren't going to bring tons of new people, how on earth do you expect wii to sell 17 million by the end of the year?
3. That is just wishful thinking. 50$ is not that big of a deal.
4. Yes, that is all what I got. Was there something else than gross generalisation to be seen? I mean, wii hasn't been selling more than 08 this year yet you think it will because... previous consoles did that also?! lolwut.

2. COMBINATIONS OF MULTIPLE GAMES, NOT INDIVIDUALLY!! That and price cut and black Wii and ....
3. Its a whole new level of consumer base. This will be evident a couple weeks from now.
4. Its not generalization. If I brought out the sales from the two generations before that, it would be the same for NES, SNES, GEN, PS1, N64, etc. IF there were no price cut + black wii + games(NSMBWii +others) + etc, then yes, you would have a valid point. Considering parts 1,2,3 etc, then I see this year being better overall and much better during holiday.
