As usual. Malstrom has one or more good points, then he floods everything sensible he could say with insane amounts of raving and, lately, whining too.
Sorry if somebody else already wrote it, but he too has a not so well hidden agenda, he's crying, thumping his feets and holding his breath until he becomes blue because MW2 launch was bigger than NSMBW one.

And you blew your decent critique of him with your own strawman. He's made it clear for a while that those games are frontloaded. It's long term sales that he discussed. Plus Nintendo didn't blow $150-$200 million to market NSMBWii.

As in I agree he has an agenda, you just got it completely wrong.

I can admit without problem that I,'m just a little bit biased against Malstrom.

About his agenda, I oversimplified: he's so infatuated of his own theories that each time PS3 or XB360 look like they're reacting well to Wii disruption, he gets bonkers and he tries to bend facts to show he's right, and it's the world that's actually going wrong (just like, regarding another one of his theories, when he repeated ad nauseam that cutting price was a wrong move for Nintendo, but actually it worked quite well, even before big games launches, BF and Xmas approaching made Wii do even biggere leaps). And I realize just now, and just as I phrased the thing this way, that he's becoming worrying. In a psychiatric sense.
