Please!!  Nintendo would never pay thier competitors a royalty fee.  Blue ray is an unecessary format (with the now standard motion controll, bigger hard drives and fast loading transport cards {memory cards}) is the direction Next Gen will be going.  Nintendo made low end definition titles outsell anything on those inferior selling (makie it look pretty but nobody buys)HD machines.  HD-yes, blue ray-NO!!

     I don't know why Wii fans say people don't buy the hd consoles because 51.6 > 48.4.

 

A lot of people thought that when Wii received incredible sales, then, despite the tech differences, it would automatically pull all the games to it like PS2 did.  But the truth is this Christmas following a year of Wii sales decline, 360 and PS3 are getting Modern Warfare 2, and Wii is getting a port of a two year old game instead.

51.6/2=25.8<48.4

Also, the Wii is get not a port, but New Super Mario Bros Wii. It could easily revive the Wii's momentum. The last game sold 19million.

 

     The hd consoles can be considered one console because other than a handul of exclusives they share many of the same characteristics and many games between them that the Wii doesn't have or receive.  360 and PS3 parasite off of each other in a way that is harmful to the total sales of either console and it is a competition that doesn't include the Wii.

     But what they show together is that at least 50% of the console market prefers their model of doing things -- better tech, better graphics, the majority of games as deep experiences rather than just casual or party type software.

 

     Nintendo's Wii currently has little appeal to the 50% of gaming that prefers the 360 / PS3 model.

 

     As for Mario Wii, it has started off receiving bad reviews (A 7.0 from Edge and other Western publications will probably follow suit).  I don't think it will have the appeal of Mario Kart Wii.
