2) This issue is seriously deeper than a rise in Sony and/or Microsoft sales, it is just as much about Nintendo's current drop in sales. Nintendo had a drop off in sales following the release of two add-ons that made the more powerful consoles very similar, in fucntionality to Wii. It is reasonable to conclude that the people that were going to buy Wii decided to buy a more powerful console, that offers the same (or better depending on who you ask) experiences as Wii, for a reasonable price. Even if Sony and Microsoft sales did not rise (which I think that have), Nintendo's did fall (I believe both happened) and that is because people are changing their mind on which console to buy. Price cuts did not have affects that lasted that long... my point is, the people that are now purchasing XBOX 360 and PS3 are the people the Wii haters rally against. I see a lot of women (soccer moms) interested in Kinect (for example) and the coverage of both products was similar to the coverage given to Wii in the first couple years. Nintendo did not go HD with Wii, Sony and Microsoft went motion controls (which is so telling of so many things) to keep up. Which is why no matter which console you buy into, Nintendo won this generation hands down. |
1) Meh in all thos years I hardly saw someone posting he didn't wanted a Wii because their would be no Zelda HD...hardly any third party support, don't like Nintendo games, an horrible online experience, don't like to play motion controls that were like the most common reasons stated by users vgchartz why they don't want a Wii or didn't like it.
2) The Wii's sales are already in decline for years;.Sony especially is just selling more because they are releasing a lot of games combined with a lot of multiplatform titles why the Wii had hardly any games..PS3 is not outselling the Wii in Japan because the popularity of the move games;..Ps3 was not outselling the Wii thx to move games...At this point we may be happy if an move games can sell 5k a week...And the gap was way bigger than 5k..
