As much as id like to agree with you guys, seriously... come on. I own a Wii, i love it, i will likely NEVER buy a 360, and the PS3 is a ways off for me.

However, nintendo's software sales SHOULD be alarming to anyone who backs the Wii.

Wii Play & Wii Sports are terrible to track as "software sales" compared to the MS games.... Wii Sports is a pack-in game for christ's sake, and Wii Play is almost the same price as the controller it comes with.

The Wii is in desperete need of quality 3rd-party games with "adult" or in-depth story content. how many party games and shovel-ware can you eat?

I mean... in the end, you cant help but begin to get jealous of COD4, Halo, Mass Effect, assasins creed, Gears Of War, GTA, etc...

And no, not for the HD graphics....

Right now the only company putting out games of any serious involvement is nintendo themselves (TP, SMG, MP3)... but those franchises are now all out... so whose gonna fill the void?

There is a damn strong argument in saying that MS is (so far) dominating the sales chart with quality games purchased for their content (and not because they come with a game system, a controller or the zapper)... and even more importantly, that many of those games are a result of third party support.



Nintendo is seriously not making any real effort to pull in serious in depth invetsment from third party developers.


i mean... rayman 2? heroes 2? fun games... but what a joke.
