I'm going to repost what I said in the article comments:



Who the hell is buying this thing? All my friends, who all game to various extents haven't touched one since brawl came out. No one in my whole extended family, friends of friends, or even minor acquaintances don't but it. So who is? I know we talk about casuals and how wii sells to grandmas and children, but I always figured it was more as much a joke as it was true. But is there really this vast audience of Grandmas and soccer moms eating this up? How does a console with such little rapport with the gaming audience sell so well?

Before anyone asks, I'm not mad, the wiis hardware success means little to me. I just can't wrap my head around it.

I do I'm sorry all your friends haven't been interested in any of the great games since brawl, but that is probably because they refuse to even be remotely interested not because there are no good games.

Now answer this question. Who the hell buys a X360 or PS3. I know 0 people personally (other than myself) who have either.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy
