Do you think the Wii Price Cut has had the desired effect Nintendo wanted?

Yes absolutely.

Nintendo wanted to show the game industry for the last time that NSMB Wii, SOFTWARE, can sell more consoles than a $100 price cut on the 'hottest' console ever made. What this means is that if they had half of Nintendo's talent they could all be billionairres on 2 or 3 games.

Edit: Those 2 or 3 games don't include Xenoblade or Pandora's whatever.

lol what a joke of a post

You don't agree that NSMB Wii had a bigger effect than both price cuts combined?

This price cut  yes, last price cut, no. I'm on the side of the fence that believes the price cut pushed sales for Wii that holiday and NSMB was just the game to get at the time, not that NSMB actually caused millions to go out and get a wii. This price cut has been pretty fail though, I'd say most big games, Halo 3, MGS4 ect have had more HW boosting impact than this Wii price cut

You don't agree that only Nintendo and Activision have the talent to make 10-25M sellers on a consistent basis?

'Talent' it's nothing to do with talent, always clinging onto that huh? If you mean capabilites to appeal to a wide casual audience (relatively for MW/COD) then yeah, Nintendo has that in the bag

Or, you don't agree that Nintendo was trying to prove a point?

And no they wern't, what an absurd reason to do a price cut ... I don't even see any logic in that whatsoever. Then again you come out with some irrational rubbish at times.

The game that started it all, the one we haven't seen for 20 years, the biggest system seller ever, fastest to 10M, faster than Wii Sports, Fit, Kart, Brain Training, Nintendogs, GT, GTA.........doesn't sell more systems than a price cut, right?

Appealing to everybody doesn't require talent, right?

I think you pretty much defined irrational rubbish there Seece.
