PS2 sold as much as it did because it had no competition?

No, PS2 sold as much as it did because it brought the thing that mattered most. Games.

 

Wii won't outsell the PS2 because as of right now it is not bringing that which matters most. Games.

 

 

Do we discount the PS1 as well because of "no competition"?  Please answer this one

Um no....PS2 had no competition. And the Wii is up against. 360, PS3. 

PS1 only had to deal with Sega Saturn....massive competition. I mean it sold a whopping 9.5 Million.

And where the heck do you see me discount sales........Please answer this one

Oh, so the Saturn wasn't competition, neither was the N64? You say this even though the SNES and Genesis were both top of the line consoles the previous generation?

Consoles don't get discounted just because they end up offering what the others do not and in turn blow them away sales wise.

 

Same for PS2. You don't suddenly get to undermine how great it truly was just because the competition couldn't keep up.

 

If me and you went to the starting line to get ready to race, guess what, you are my competitor.

That doesn't change just because you failed to clear the first hurdle.

 

 

I also didn't say you were discounting sales. You are seemingly trying to make you case of the Wii being the best of all time because it sold as much as it did while failing to step on the throats of it's competitors when it was at one point outselling them both combined.

You are intitled to your opinion, but your reasoning for it is very flawed.

OMG....SNES and Genisis were 4th Gen Consoles they have nothing to do with PS1. The Saturn failed in many ways and N64 was released 1 year after PS1. So yes, it had no competition.

"Do we discount the PS1 as well".....so yes you are implying i was discounting sales...lolz

"If me and you went to the starting line to get ready to race, guess what, you are my competitor.

That doesn't change just because you failed to clear the first hurdle.".....don't you think thats race would be an unfair outcome if you had a 1 year lead on me ?.....common man think about it

And by the way the Wii did step on their throats
