We know the next home console is coming next year, therefore the Wii has a limited amount of time remaining as Nintendo's main focus in the home console market. It doesn't matter if it still gets a bit of support once Cafe is released, it's the moment that it is no longer the main focus when it truly dies. All we need is a release date for Cafe and we can mark that tombstone. And all of that has absolutely nothing to do with it's sales levels in the present, for the rest of the year, or post Cafe release. They could cut the price to £99/$99 right now, end up being up YoY for the year, and it'd still be a console in the twilight months of its life. It also doesn't matter if there's a truck load of Wii announcements at E3 for the holiday season and beyond, as we still know what's coming next year. |
That's still going by a personal definition of the word, which is too subjective to make a good argument, as the posts on this thread have shown.
That the Wii will "Pass the Torch" is the real the term for that.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
