Wii strategy (same strategy used by NES, SNES, Playstation, and PS2) 1) Sell more consoles in 6 months than your competition sells in a year 2) Use sale to attract exclusive 3rd party development for second year 3) Use 3rd party development to attract more gamers increasing profit 4) Repeat steps 2 and 3 5) Profit People always said the N64 was going to sell more than the Playstation later in its life because of its better hardware; it didn't happen. People always said the XBox and Gamecube would sell more than the PS2 later in their life because of their better hardwar; it didn't happen. The PS3 will (likely) hit the important $200 price point in 2010 or 2011 which will be a great opportunity for Nintendo to release a system that is (roughly) 5 to 10 times as powerful as the PS3, with an advanced Wiimote, for $200 ... Edit: CrazzyMan, many of those games you have listed have games already announced for the XBox 360 and Wii and very few are ensured to be exclusives (being that most of the games are developed by third parties)
