I'll have to leave it up to fkusumot to tell me how far away from acceptance we are.

  • Denial (Wii Fit will bomb!)
  • Anger (I blame Wii Fit!)
  • Bargaining (Please God, I'll do anything if you make it go away.)
  • Depression (I don't care about Wii Fit. Let it destroy gaming. I'm starting a new hobby.)
  • Acceptance (I, for one, accept our new Wii Fit overlords.)

It seems like different people are at different stages but if I am interpreting this properly this means we are almost officially beyond denial accross the board. We've been seeing anger for a while and bargaining has been around for a bit as well..I think Leo was the first to hit depression and we have a few that actually seemed to skip depression and go straight to acceptance. Interesting....


Close. Rocketpig has stated that Wii Fit will not sell more than 7 million WW (or maybe 8?). He might be revising that shortly. As for the stages of grief, not everyone goes through all of them, and not always in the same order. The above progression is what is seen in the majority of cases (the norm).


Aaah that explains a lot. I once lost my favorite hat and I was stuck in denial for like 2 hours looking for it. Then I got angry that I lost it for a while. But I was confused because I skipped bargaining and was depressed for the rest of the night..in the morning I accepted that it was gone and bought a new one. Luckily I still have my new hat.

Now that I know different people go through the stages differently I understand why I skipped bargaining...before I just thought it was because there was nobody to bargain with...of course maybe I am just forgetting and I said something like "please god help me find my hat and I will stop kicking puppies and kittens..i promise!". That would qualify as bargaining right?


 Well to be far.  Not everyone goes through all the stages of grief... nor do they necessary come in the order they are listed.  The order they are listed in are in the same order but it's possible to have only 2 of the phases or more etc.

That list is just the usual emotions listed in the usual order.
