However, I truly expect the Wii to have a very solid Christmas(as you know it already beat Xbox and Ps3 in sales this week again) for one very solid reason. If you do some research you will learn that in the next 24 months America will be seeing It's highest amount of 9 year olds (average gaming starting age) in It's history, this means that in the next 2 years A LOT OF KIDS will be turning 9 ( this goes back to highest amount of pregnancy in America after 9-11-01, I'm sure Nintendo, Sony and Microsoft know this. therefore we are seeing a huge attempt to capture this group with "motion consoles" but Nintendo is got a huge advantage over It's competitors for their reputation as a "family-oriented" game makers. Parents will feel a lot more comfortable having their kids play as a plummer jumping over giant pipes and fake bowling rather than Intergalactic soldiers blowing up all kinds of alien invaders or a semi-god trying to kill his own father and everybody in between. on top of that I do believe a few of us old-school gamers will be buying that black wii just to play skyward sword. sorry fellas NINTENDO WON THIS ROUND |
Right on Juma, Nintendo has won this gen its as simple as that. People complain about the sales of the Wii these past couple of months. Its over 70 million and people are stilling calling it a fad. Its so stupid that there is so much hate of Nintendo. It has over a 20 million lead over the 360 and it still gets no respect. I am happy that Nintendo has be able to recapture its glory and i cant wait for it to move forward with the 3DS and the next home console.
