"Another thing against SSBB is that there are a lot more HD consoles (Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony Playstation PS3) in the world than there are Wiis. And most HD console owners are gamers. So gamers games brought out on both HD consoles have the potential to massively outsell SSBB, even if they are not as good as games. GTA IV will sell several times as many as SSBB. And by the end of the year there will be many HD titles that feature on the annual charts ahead of SSBB." 21.5 Wii's to 26.5 HD consoles, with that gap closing every single week. I would not consider that a huge advantage for "HD consoles". This whole paragraph just reeks of old arguments and Wii Bingo. |
I love how he ignores the counter reality. GTA was such a huge hit because it appealed to casuals too. And GTA IV will lose a TON of sells because: A) PS360 are still to expensive for the masses. B) The more photo realistic violence in GTA IV will turn off the casual crowd.
If SSBB will suffer because Wii is too casual, then GTA IV will suffer just the same because the HD consoles are not casual enough. This guys view is really myopic.
