The ignorance on this sight seems to have jumped a lot in the last week. There is this bizzaar assumption that forum user habits are equal to the habits of everyone. This is an interesting take since that's the sign of an upstream or enthusiast market. An enthusiast have different values than the regular user. Let alone enthusiasts again assume that regular users have the same values.

It's like saying that food critics assume that people never eat at Mc Donalds becuase the food is crap. Well yeah that maybe somewhat true, but the enthusiast critic doesn't value the speed, fatty taste and price. why because they are an enthusiast who only care about the elite end of food coneiseuor.

There are too many posts here that just scream "I'm an enthusiast and I'm spouting nonsense because EVERYONE is like me". Let alone there is clear market facts and survey studies to go against those statements. As some one said before. "This topic is great. It's like a History lesson. Except the people who should be listening aren't."

Look, the Move won't really increase sales of the Wii. however the other points are right. It will make little impact. People who bought the PS3 didn't buy it for motion controls. They bought it for the library. People bought the Wii not for the controls but the library that the controls offered. Move will not be hitting the ground running with it's library.



Squilliam: On Vgcharts its a commonly accepted practice to twist the bounds of plausibility in order to support your argument or agenda so I think its pretty cool that this gives me the precedent to say whatever I damn well please.
