So you're trying to compare Katuragi to Iwata, seriously? If Iwata says that their next console will have HD and says that he won't price a console over $250, its not just bluster, he doesn't say things without a reason The Wii vitality sensor is still a ways off, they'll reveal the software at E3 2010, the Sony wand already has its launch software set, Wii fit and Wii sports are already out, so the Sony wand will have to compete with its launch software against those games.

Kutaragi didnt say things without a reason either. Are you flaming/trolling Ken? I sure hope not.

No it doesn't. It has part of its launch software set... With Gran Turismo 5 also rumored to be usable with it. I think so far there is one game confirmed... Resident Evil 5. Which is by no means a bad choice. Im surprised the WIi didn't get a RE5: Wii Edition actually.

Why do you think this is?


I don't need to troll Ken, he trolled himself, that's why he's no longer at Sony, lol Even if you include GT5, it still doesn't have the games to target the expanded audience, its games are targeting the core audience

I agree with you on that one actually. And GT5 doesn't go to just the core, it goes to both markets. Thats how the games manage to sell massive amounts.


Well we don't know if it will sell massive amounts, the only GT on PS3 sold about 3 million, it was on the PS2 that GT sold over 10 million, on a console with over 130 million units sold, so actually not a huge attach rate

GT5:Prologue has sold just under 4 million including downloads. For comparison, GT4:Prologue sold 1.36 Million.

GT4 ended up with over 10 Million sales.


Yeah, but there was already a GT on the system, so no real need to go out and buy the prologue to 4, on the PS3 there has yet to be a full fledged GT, not to mention, most PS3's are not fully BW compatible, so you can't just put an older GT into the console. So why was demand for the prologue only around 4 million?

 

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)
