He thinks Wii Fit will outsell the GTA franchise don't take him seriously

Ah, I see you are employing the old Ad Hominem attack, the last refuge of one who is unable to address the points themselves

Hey, you're the one who puts up predictions that won't ever come true. Don't get mad if other people point them out.

Pointing them out isn't the problem its when you fail to address the points of the relevant argument, and instead try and use the predictions as an argument

I made my argument, which addressed your points completely, and he added by pointing out that you often make incorrect and wild predictions. Je doesn't need to argue with you when I've already addressed your points fully, and frankly, your predictions are an argument against your logic in themselves.

No you didn't, you got whiny and said: Okay then, a couple extra thousand consoles sold. Not hard stuff. Can you just admit that maybe the PS3 will outsell the Wii? Geez. How is that addressing my points? You said its not hard stuff, but didn't show why, and then you whined about whether I can admit something or not

Oh yes, whining was it? In my original post, I still pointed out that that two games that sell over 100k can easily move a couple thousand consoles. And when you claimed that I'd need to account for dropoffs, I said it would be only a couple extra thousand at best. Maybe it sounded like whining because you're so attached to the Wii that you're in serious denial, and it's frankly frustrating to argue with you. Besides, the Wii could just as easily have dropoffs, and it's not like Tekken is a small series in Japan (even if the numbers have fallen from previous iterations). And besides, for what seems like weeks, you've constantly been pushing the idea that software is just about the only force behind moving hardware. So isn't it very possible that two big games debuting to over 100k each will move a decent amount of hardware? Or are you throwing your own policy out the window when it suits you?

Call me a whiner all you want, but you're still wrong and I'm still right.
