Sales-wise,fantastic.As a gaming device,really poor.Bad games,ports from the cube,psp and ds as best games,lots of shovelware,useless periferics...and a growing focus on casual gaming.
Not so, Wii has great games, in fact it has the highest ranked game this gen, what Wii does have is that it has opened up gaming to more than just the gamers who believe that games must be a certain way to be good
Predictions:Sales of Wii Fit will surpass the combined sales of the Grand Theft Auto franchiseLifetime sales of Wii will surpass the combined sales of the entire Playstation family of consoles by 12/31/2015 Wii hardware sales will surpass the total hardware sales of the PS2 by 12/31/2010 Wii will have 50% marketshare or more by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! It was a little over 48% only)Wii will surpass 45 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2008 (I was wrong!! Nintendo Financials showed it fell slightly short of 45 million shipped by end of 2008)Wii will surpass 80 Million in lifetime sales by the end of 2009 (I was wrong!! Wii didn't even get to 70 Million)
