Dont fall for the hype, I hate it more than I hate my worst enemy.

and you used to say you liked it. A lot of people will hate the wii though, for the same reason a lot of people hated the bulls when they had MJ, the Yankees, always or the lakers when they had Shaq and Kobe. So many people hated Shaq and Kobe in LA, but he moves to Miami and everyone loves shaq. I'm not saying there arn't people who don't actually dislike the console, but when your at the top of the hill there are going to be plenty of people who hate you just to hate you. Hell look at the people who are glad the PS3 failed because of the PS2 Or the people who hate the 360 because they hate microsoft for being so big. World is just filled with a lot of haters. Wii will likely have the most because it's the most popular.

So the PS3 having sold more than the 360 in its first year, at a higher price point and a handfull of games is a failure? Not quite. It sold less than the Wii for sure, but look at the price difference, and the fact they played up on the new Wii-mote in all of there advertising. Something the PS3 did none of.......advertise. Now with the price being lower, the games being out with a lot more anticipated games in 08, the PS3 will do fine.


PS3 was supposed to be a continuation of PS2. It was supposed to be the one with the Wii like sales, the first 5 million were supposed to sell without any games just because people would want the next of the playstation brand. This didn't happen, so yeah... it's a failure. Success is all relative. If the Yankees make the playoffs but don't win the world series they're considered a failure, if the Royals arn't in last place they're a success. If you arn't american, replace the yankees with Brazil, playoffs with world cup and royals with Ivory Coast.
