Welcome to VGchartz Bruce .
( I didn't read the whole thread - it's 4 page ... )
If you are really interested in understanding Wii/DS phenomenon I suggest you to read Sean Malstrom's Articles :
http://malstrom.50webs.com/index.htm
http://thewiikly.zogdog.com/author.php?author=8

They are very insightful ( articles on TheWiikly was written before Wii launch ).
Have a good day.

 

If you are really interested in understanding the Wii phenomenon I suggest that you read my blog. Try this article for starters http://www.bruceongames.com/2007/10/17/is-wii-a-bubble/ Also this one http://www.bruceongames.com/2007/09/03/what-is-nintendo/ And this: http://www.bruceongames.com/2007/10/02/the-future-it-is-all-a-gesture/ A chance for all you fanboys to learn how it really is from an industry professional.

By "industry professional" I assume you mean a professional of the same industry that wrote the Wii off as a third place finish, got caught flat footed by its success, and yet is now claiming to know exactly what happened, why it happened, and what it's future will be using the same basic analytical framework that failed before?

I'm glad you're here Bruce, and will be happy to read what you have to contribute, but you'll have to forgive me  for remaining skeptical of any industry insider who claims to know "how it really is", especially when none of your 2008 predictions are any different from what thousands of "fanboys" have already said.
