Didn't Kinect do it much quicker?


Kinect isn't really considered a new console. It is a peripheral and no matter what anyone says it is nothing more. Also Kinect is the perfect example of a flop, it sold really well for the first few months but then died. Today Kinect is still selling but its lost its momentum.

Yes it is. Look at my above post, it's a peripheral to current owners, it's a new system to casuals Kinect IS a console to them. And no Kinect isn't a flop, you really don't know anything do you, the thing will explode again this christmas, that's easy enough to predict.



As for Rol's comment about Wii being a slow a steady race. Fact is Wii dominated not only at the beginning but reigned over the whole industry for years. Until last year Wii was still steadily outselling 360 and PS3 on a regular basis.Sure it didn't remain the dominant seller the whole generation, but I'd say it was fairly successful from start to finish.

Of course you would, but you would be wrong.
The last few years of its life it will have been beaten by its two nearest rival and pushed into third place, and have hardly any SW come out for it. That isn't successful.

I don't think Nintendo expected any better!
