Given the utterly abysmal 3rd party games out so far for Wii, compounded by less consoles on the market for half the year, further compounded by the once in a great while glut of awesome games (mostly 360) ...

that's a pretty impressive showing for the Wii.

I'd be curious about a 1st year vs 1st year analysis. Or maybe we can necro this thread for the 360 figures in a year to see how Wii and 360 2nd year 3rd party sales stand up.

That was the point cAPSLOCK. Legend doesn't seem to grasp it.

No one is denying that the 360 is easily the most successful console in third party sales right now, but as soon as someone brought up that the Wii third party sales were pretty good too, he decided to troll the topic.

Legend, nothing in life is black and white. There are always other variables and facts to analyze. The fact that you refuse to do so makes me seriously question your purpose on this website. The point of game sales data is to help analyze those other facts and variables. You ignoring data, facts, and circumstances has become increasingly tiresome of late.


Dude, he's the same guy who said Super Mario Galaxy is 7 hours long. I know I haven't been here long but even I've noticed his gimmick posting and going out of his way to deny facts in the face of overwhelming evidence is his modus operandi. 

This forum needs an ignore feature. I'm tired of quick scrolling through his posts.

Back to the topic:

I think the single biggest factor here is quality. There has been some horrendous crap on the Wii so far. I mean most of it is the miracle taking a giant shit on a disc and turning it into digital information that plays on the Wii. That's a pretty impressive technological feat.

Hopefully games like RE4 will drive the point home that good games sell well. I honestly don't know what developers are thinking as they essentially have a money printing machine with a little bit of effort. By this time next year the Wii will probaby have 2x the user base of the 360, and most likely more than PS3 and 360 combined.

Eventually they will figure out that digital crap stamped on a disc doesn't sell well. 3rd parties really have no one to blame but themselves on this one.
