Word of mouth.

It isn't any of the things you listed.

But word of mouth comes naturally once you have a good system/game...

Its the reason why the PS3 performs poorer in the USA and why the 360 performs poorer in places like Europe even though the libraries and system capabilities are identical.

Ahhh....  Most posters on this site don't like the idea that the Wii especially is a success due to the "Popular" scenario.  We seem to be on the same wavelength on this in that the Wii became the "it" thing, and it has retained that image in general.  I have to concede, at this point in all of the consoles life cycle, they each have a decent enough game library.  With that said, why do people still buy Wii's?  By now, all of the people who are "Gamers" or "Hardcore" probably have all 3 systems or have what they can afford.  It's the rest of the people who are out there who still buy the Wii...  The people who don't really care which they buy, but can't help but to get what everyone else has(like i have said in other posts - Ipods/sliced bread/cabbage patch dolls/ELMO).
