I cannot believe Generation after Generation after Generation has shown us the most consumer friendly console has shown to ALWAYS be the most successful, but we have people like the 2 guys above who really believe that power plays any kinda roll in the success of a console.
you graphic whores are delirious. |
Shouldn't the Dreamcast have beaten the PS2 by this metric?
I think Wii U is honestly competing more against the existing XBox 360 and PS3 which I don't anticipate going anywhere in the next 3 years.
You'll probably see a division of the game industry, with the Wii U/PS3/360 + Kinect on one end, and then the PS4/720 on the other end for more high budget types of games and PC quality ports.

How is Dreamcast more consumer friendly than the PS2?
He said the most consumer friendly console is the most successful, not the weakest one.

That's kind of a cop out arguement then because you can always say after the fact which ever platform won was the most "consumer friendly".
I'm not even sure if I'd say the Wii "won" this generation. Yes maybe in terms of units sold, but the XBox 360/PS3 have had much more vitality into their later years and seem to have much more active software development and developer support. The Wii had three very explosive years off the top and then has really levelled off.
Lets wait and see if casuals are as impressed with a traditional controller + a touchscreen as they were with the Wiimote six years ago. I have my doubts about that. Wiimote was a revolution to non-gamers ... but today that market has all types of options and I don't think slapping a touchscreen on a traditional controller replicates what the Wiimote did for the Wii.

Yeah sure, the Wii didn't win, despite selling 30 million more units than its nearest competitor.. *rolls eyes* Just because you didn't want the Wii to be the most sucessful, doesn't mean you can pretend it's not true.
It comeltely baffles me how many self-proclaimed hardcore gamers absolutely refuse to give Nintendo their props, even after they completely spanked the competition - with far weaker hardware, constant mudslinging from the mainstream gaming media, and virtually no relevent third party support mind you.
I mean christ, If the PS3 had several games topping 20 million units, and several more selling 10 million, fans would probably be building a statue of Ken Kutaragi and singing kumbaya around it.

What can you do, Nintendo has been "teh doomed" since 1889, or 1974/1977 if you wanna be game specfic.
"Hardcore" Video Gamers, the Media, hell the Industry itself have made it the norm to debunk Nintendo. For every praise they get they get 10x as much flack.
But more on topic. We have had so many interations on how powerful the Wii U is:
On Par With Current Gen
2 Wii's Ducktapped Together
2x 360
5x 360
etc.
Lot'o people getting thier panties in a bunch over rumors being rumors about rumors.
E3 people, lets wait it out until then.......THEN we can bash our heads together and argue to facts....not rumors.
