It's sort of funny that after 3 years he still hasn't realized names and IP's don't count for crap on Wii. People who own Wii's don't seem to care about branding (With the exception of Nintendo). They only care about the content itself, many of the Wii's owners are soccer mom's senior citizens and children, they don't give two hoots about the latest Madden they only care about BattleShip and Scrabble or fitness games and other eccentric material.

Way to pigeon-hole the biggest and most diverse console gaming market.

That's like saying all HD twin owners are 15 year old socially retarded neckbeard nerdsperging illiterate racist homophobe Wapanese virgins who only want tits and blood. It's easy to giggle but it's a huge disservice to the PS360 crowd in the same way calling all Wii owners babies and old farts is.

The group you just mentioned a subgroup of a much larger group of PC Gamers giving a console a try, women of all ages, regular console gamers, parents looking for a way to connect with their kid, and about 56,000,000 other people with a different reason why they picked the system up.

(I pretty much agree with the rest to one degree or another, but I had to nitpick this)
