This entire affair is ridiculous.

The Wii has had a grand total of ONE notable title this year: Mario Sports Mix. And that's only outside of Japan.

The only upcoming game that's likely to matter is Skyward Sword.

The price has barely fallen since 2006.

The most sucessful game at the moment is a party game with a 74% on Metacritic.

The 360 had had a recent relaunch, and it and the PS3 have gotten Marvel vs Capcom 3, Dead Space 2, Killzone 3, LittleBigPlanet 2, Dynasty Warriors 7, Homefront, Mass Effect 2, Dragon Age 2, Crysis 2, and Bulletstorm.

And the Wii is still on par...

This is like watching two athletes barely keeping up with a fat guy with a broken hip. It's also a testament to the fact that the Wii is essentially indestructable.

I'm pretty sure the Wii will outsell its competirors this year.

I'm liking all of these likenesses to the Wii being a failure, keep it up!

Also, this year for the Wii, hmm...

How about Kirby's Epic Yarn, Mario Sports Mix, Xenoblade, Pikmin 3, Conduit 2, Skyward Sword and The Last Story for a start eh? 

 

Here's another, more accurate likeness. Imagine the Wii as an F1 car, and the other consoles as Lamborghini's. The other consoles are selling well, in their own internal race, neither really pulling away from the other.

The Wii, on the other hand, is waaaaaaaaaaaaay faster. But it's much harder to control. I think we can count this section for the Wii as maybe a misfire, a bad gear change, a slide, whatever you want to call it. It isn't a crash.

Yet, even with this, and absolutely everything going the way of the other consoles, they still can't overtake the Wii. They never will. The times are very nearly the same. People just like to complain.

And you know what happens after a slide or a misfire? Nothing. It just gets back to where it was. It may not be as fast, but over the entire year, it will be faster.

 

Bet you found my cross-metaphor confusing eh?
