ugh, well that settles it. Pretty sure I'm done checking the sales numbers until the holidays. Besides being boring and slow, they are just depressing. 360 running away with worldwide sales become of.. Kinect? Really? And Wii in third? Cries a tear for gaming :'(

Though I can't really feel bad for Nintendo, they did this too themselves for focusing too much on niche hardcore games back in 2010 and abandoning fresh games that appealed to a wide audience like Wii Fit, Mario Kart, and NSMB. DKC was the one saving grace, but it wasn't quite big enough to singlehandedly lift Wii sales like NSMB was. That's not to say Wii is "doomed" or anything, it's done great this gen, it's just they could have done so much better.

Guess I'll just stick to the gamerconnect portion of this site :/

Why do you think what Kinect is doing is worse than what Wii does/did?

Does Kinect have NSMB, DKC, Smash Bros, Mario Kart, or Monster Hunter? :P

Kinect is Wii taken in all the wrong directions. It is all the 3rd party shovelware that Wii currently has, minus the solid 1st and 2nd party offerings. Hope I don't get modded for that comment, but it's my honest opinion.
