Seriously whats with the huge chunk of shitty opinion below that article alfredofroylan. Users like this should be banned. Post facts and that's it, leave your god damned opinions out of it. He friggen blended his opinion in with the actual article... The real article is quite positive towards Nintendo.
I say the sales jump back to number 1 spot again next chart as that's where the price cut happened. Of course sales will dip particularly low just before a price cut. What idiot would buy a 200 dollar console a week before it gets 50 dollars cheaper. In truth for the last month the sales have been artificially low because of that incoming price drop.
The Wii is a great console IMO. If Sony and Microsoft had been left alone, I think we would have had another video game crash. No console in the past has been this expensive. The Nintendo Wii is actually exactly where it should be for this console generation. The original NES was less than 200 dollars, The N64 was something like 250 dollars. I would sooner compare the PS3 and 360 with the atari Jaguar than I would a next gen console.... If they did what they were supposed to then they would only be a little more powerful than the Wii themselves and we wouldn't have had the Red Ring of Death or massive power requirements, noisy fans, oversized, ludicrously expensive, hard to develop for, developer bankrupting consoles like those.
