HD vs Wii dumbness

Its a marriage of convenience lol. I mean the Wii has more than double the install base of PS3 and over 30m more units than the 360. The only way for some of these folks to have any solice whatsoever is to combine the sales of both platforms (even if they favor one over the other or completely hate the other HD console) To make themselves feel better about the domination of an underpowered 'casual' system over the multimedia hd systems.

This stuff doesn't bother me at all..at least not anymore. You get used to the hypocrisies and double talk. Its to the point where its entertainment and nothing more. Like the whole PS3 shortages..Its real because Sony is trying to appease all of this unbelievable demand! Yet the Wii, during their shortages was being manufactured by Nintendo to create more demand (as if that makes any business sense) and the Wii was selling twice that the PS3 is. Motion Controls a gimmick until the competition reveals theirs. Now its the bees knees.

And in this case, the whole NMH game..Its sold like crap on evey single system in Japan. But the sales are a flop on Wii but magically its "not bad considering" Fans of the HD consoles want to highlight a game on Wii not selling, blame it on the consumer and the system, but when a game flops on the HD consoles, its either because 'the competition is tougher' or the game sucked plain and simple.

Then if a game sells on Wii that is Mature it no longer counts because its part of a well known franchise lol. Yet most games that sell in general are part of a well known franchise. I love the theatre. Just enjoy the show my friend. There are much more important things to worry about than videogames..At least imo..But then again I'm just a casual gamer.

1. I'm not bothered that the underpowered console is dominating, I'm bothered the console with the worst library is dominating. This is the only generation I've felt this. I can live with last gen graphics, but how about some last gen quality games.

2. I'm sensing its BS as well. All motion controls are a gimmick. I'm not crazy about Wiimote either.

3. It would be more interesting to debate NMH if the Wii and HD releases came out at the same time. Late ports pretty much always sell worse. For example, 360 timed exclusive JRPGs don't sell well on the PS3. Yet JRPGs released on both HD consoles at the same time dominate on the PS3.

4. Well the best selling Mature games on the Wii are popular franchises. But you could also argue the other Mature games on the Wii aren't great.

You aren't a casual gamer. You have a huge collection, you're very savvy of all this interweb BS, and you're clearly bias torwards Nintendo. A true casual gamer doesn't know about any of this shit and doesn't care. You act like you're above it, but you are totally apart of it.
