Gaming - WHO WON THIS GEN - View Post

kupomogli said:

People are being so defensive in this thread when people say the Wii won with sales, PS3 or 360 won because of the games. The difference between this gen and any other gen is that during any other gen, the console leader also had the best games. NES had the best games during its gen, SNES had the best games during its gen, PSX had the best games during its gen, PS2 had the best games during its gen, etc.

This gen the Wii has only won in sales and unlike every other gen it hasn't had the best games. It's actually had the worst games out of the three consoles. So it's a win for Nintendo because of the sales, but it's a loss to Nintendo fans. 

The only time you see Nintendo fans saying "it's all about the games, or gameplay" is when people are comparing graphics between the consoles and Nintendo's console is the worst in that regard, or whenever Nintendo isn't the leader in sales.  Is it about the games or isn't it about the games? Or is it only about the games when it benefits you to be about the games?

Here's a post I made two days ago, a reply that was basically even if Vita or Wii U or failures, I'm still going to own both because it's all about the games. This was posted two days ago and my opinion hasn't changed.

So in my opinion, the PS3 won, and just as I said in the post linked above. " I don't care if it's sold one million systems or one billion systems. It's all about the games." The PS3 is the system this gen that has the best games.

yeah, we nintendo fans are so sad to have received amazing titles on the wii. seriously do you see a nintendo fan bitching and saying ps1 and ps2 didn't win their respective generations? why is the hate so big you people can't admit nintendo won this time?
