It would have made more sense for Wii to come out in 2005 since Gamecube was in 3rd place and Wii is the weakest current gen console. Also, since they were making a good sized profit in 2006 for $250, its not unreasonable to think they could have launched at the same price in 05 and not taken a loss. They could have possibly switched Star Fox Assault and Resident Evil from GC to Wii launch games and have Twilight Princess their killer app of 06 right in time for 360/PS3 launch. Having the 360 release in 2006 could possibly have prevented the RROD fiasco and it would be interesting to see 360 and PS3 have a simultaneous launch. Would 3rd parties still prefer 360 without a year head start or was the high price of PS3 going to scare them off regardless? |
Your first post has inspired me. I'll see if there are any interesting timelines I can create.
Love and tolerate.
