X360 makes a lot of sense, since it´s about decade, and it´s all about OnLine Services, anyone can remember how lame was PS3 online services... X360 was excellent and made Sone push better features..
Many people around says Wii should be the 1st.. but I think X360 in all directions is a mark, online services, marketing strategy, PC + X360 dev integration, etc..etc.. soo congrats X360!

Yeah, the Wii didn't actually do a lot to define gaming.

It expanded the audiance and it brought us a new way to play, but it didn't define gaming in any way at all.  People just keep getting upset they don't see their favorite console on the list and just automatically assume the list is wrong without thinking about it.

 

I'm not upset, I'm just looking at it from a sales perspective. But from the OP's context, I agree. However, if the Wii didn't define gaming, I don't think Ms or Sony would've brought motion controls with their consoles now. Wouldn't cracking a certain audience = having an impact on the industry?
