the Arcade is tho, as seen as people don't supposedly care about quality that would be the one they get, do your research properly please^^

you are now contradicting yourself, so just stop now, you said people don't care about quality and it's all about price, now you are saying wii is not vunerable because of it's library, make your mind up

Quality isn't the issue, the issue is that the arcade is clearly seen as the Xbox with fewer features, people will compare the elite and the PS3, most won't include the arcade, because the arcade is clearly the version with less features, as I pointed out earlier features is an important aspect of sales decision, much more than quality.

 

Wrong!  I said that when the libraries are similar price is the issue (I also talked about features):

No, its price in this case, 360 and PS3 have similar libraries, so price plays a big role in sales, PS3 was prior to a few months ago, $50+ more than the 360, as a result consumers were able to decide whether the features like Blu-ray were worth paying extra for PS3 or getting the 360 for less, now that there is a price partiy, there is little reason to purchase the 360 over the PS3, due to the similar libraries, but as we saw from the sale, there is a demand for the consoles at a lower price, this demand will likely be satisfied largely by whatever console enters that price range first.

 

So Wii is different because its library makes it so

 

No contradictions, you just have a bad memory of what I have said
