OP:Yes the Wii is absolutely doomed and has FALLEN FROM GRACE.

Sheeeesh man, I bet you've been saying this crap for 5 years. Sorry for being rude, but I've heard all that nonsense before, and the worst is that it comes packaged in a quasi intellectual package.

Helooo new enemies.

The wii will end up selling the most this gen there is no question about that. But what if there were no generation starts and ends. Right now, it is clear that there has been a shift in Nintendo's focus away from the wii.

Right now the 360 and PS3 are selling well, and it is becoming a trend.

Also right now the wii needs something to change for a brighter future. That is what I meant in the term "Fall from Grace"

The Wii is great. I love Nintendo. But they should be considering some new options and fast, or the wii will- from here on out only be referred to as dominant in the past tense, (in terms of weekly/monthly hardware sales)

Yes, but this isn't the start of the gen. If it was, then Nintendo would be doing more. Andit would be selling more, because no-one would have one!

Saturation is key; I wonder how well the PS360 would sell when/if they reach 85million?

The Wii is already a downright success, why do anything when it's still selling fine? Just so they can be on top ALL THE TIME?

Nintendo don't care about how well the Wii sells now. It's done its part, like the DS. They'll keep advertising, bringing out games, bundles etc. But the focus is now on the 3DS, and likely on the Wii2. The Wii will clear 100mil easily. That's great for the console whose lifetie total for some was only a fifth of that, and was to "force Nintendo out of the console business forever"

Let's also remember one thing...IT HAD ONE, ONE  bad week, and now the Wii's more doomed than the travel network in the UK when it snows...

Let's wait for this weeks sales, heck, let's wait for E3 to judge how well its doing. Let's not say something has "fallen from grace" when it lost its balance on only one occasion...
