The HD consoles are the only home consoles. The fact that more & more new content in theaters is recorded in 3D under every genre including comedy & romance, shows that it's moving more sales in the theaters. We went from 45 3D movies in 2012 to around 70 3D movies in 2013, so clearly it's successful when the only movie this year converted from 2D is both Star Trek 2 & the re-releases excluding what's showing in the Egyptian theater this September which are all recorded in 3D despite being re-releases. The sales of 2D HD TV have drop like a mothertrucker, while the sales of 3D TVs continues to rise. And if what you said about the PSP/PS Vita was true then 3rd parties wouldn't be making games for the Wii like The Last Story & Xenoblade Chronicles & Epic Mickey 1 & Crystal Chronicles The Crystal Bearers & Pandora's Tower because the GameCube software sales as well as the Wii software sales where mediocre, especially the 3rd party sales on these 2 home consoles. And no one would make another Superman movie so soon after Superman Returns and we know it. And Sin City sequels where canned during the 2D era of the 21st century. The Great Gatsby is all about 3D cinematography to tell the story. And I could go on. |
And why is that? If nobody cared about HD, then why are the PS2 and Wii not still dominating? You can't say games, because using your logic, the fact that publishers made HD games means that people love HD.
Ticket sales are still well below their peak 11 years ago in the US, and that is with more movies being released than ever. Three out of the top 4 movies last year were not released in 3D. It would seem based on the data that 3D is being used to squeeze more money out of a smaller market. If people were going crazy about 3D, surely they'd be seeing more movies, not less.
The sales of TV's overall have dropped. Surely if the public was chomping at the bit for 3D this wouldn't be the case. All those hundreds of millions with HDTV's they apparently didn't care about ought to be rushing out to buy 3DTV's. Also 3DTV's are still a small minority of overall TV sales. Once again, if the public doesn't care about HD and loves 3D, why are they buying more HDTV's? That's even assuming people are buying 3DTV's for 3D content. A lot of times if you want a higher end TV it will be 3D whether you want it or not.
Three out of five of those Wii games you mentioned were published by Nintendo. Also the Gamecube got a Crystal Chronicles game that sold moderately well. So that leaves Epic Mickey which was released four years into the Wii's life when it had already sold significant amounts of hardware. Not in anyway equivalent to the PSV situation. I really don't see your point. I could name five random Vita games too, but that doesn't mean it is getting good support.
It has been 7 years since Superman Returns. They rebooted Batman after 8 years, Spider-Man after 5 years, Hulk after 5 years.
I just really don't understand what goes on in your head.
Movie reboot or sequel is announced with 3D. It never would have happened without 3D!
A game is released for the 3DS with 3D in the title. Would have been on Vita if not for 3D!
3DTV's might be outpacing HDTV sales, though that data never seems to actually get posted. People don't care about HD, love 3D!
Some games were released on the Wii. Therefore all games would be on Vita/consoles if not for the 3D in 3DS!
3DS has a Kingdom Hearts and Resident Evil. 3DS is getting all the support, consoles only have FFXIII and RE6! (do you really think these are the only games on PS3/360 for some reason you've brought it up multiple times.)
I could go on, but there's not much point. There just isn't any logic to your claims. This isn't even getting into the made up numbers you've posted in the past.
