@Avinash and TLK: Absolutely. More times than not people attack Malstrom the blogger instead of the points he raises. I don't agree with absolutely everything the guy says but a lot of it is spot on and when/if you've read the Birdmen Fallacy you can actually see all of this happening in real time. Case in Point; this threads OP.
@Xxain: Seemed to me that some were blaming low dev costs for Wii as a reason it is receiving the shovelware and leaning toward that being Nintendo's fault. Where I feel installed base is generally the main reason for shovelware on any marketleading console. Installed base is also generally the reason for quality and high third party support as well. But this doesn't seem to be happening with the Wii and that raises more than a few questions as to why this is the case. The Op even saying that the low quality games are causing the low sales is correct. But how do you go from A>>>D in saying that because we put out low quality and didn't work we're leaving. LoL. The conclusion is laughably inxxain;)
Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:
If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.
If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
