| S.T.A.G.E. said: He who has the third parties runs the market and Nintendo hasnt had them properly for a very long time. To win a gen they must bank on mass market gimmicks. If they make an ordinary console they are screwed. |
Bull Shit. Wii proves that. The other console makers rely on thirds much more, due to the fact that they aren't primarily a games company, and neither first party of M$ or Sony is strong enough to substatially carry a console on their own. Mass market gimmicks, lol. Mass market games like Wii Sports, MK Wii, or Super Mario Bros. for the NES is what causes Nintendo to thrive. When Nintendo makes games like that, with that appeal they win..When they make Gamecube+ games..well just look at the Wii U's sales. The Gamepad is a bigger 'gimmick' than the WiiMote.
Bet between Slimbeast and Arius Dion about Wii sales 2009:
If the Wii sells less than 20 million in 2009 (as defined by VGC sales between week ending 3d Jan 2009 to week ending 4th Jan 2010) Slimebeast wins and get to control Arius Dion's sig for 1 month.
If the Wii sells more than 20 million in 2009 (as defined above) Arius Dion wins and gets to control Slimebeast's sig for 1 month.
