The Wii is attracting the casuals, so instead of Nintendo only getting the "hardcore Nintendo fans," they're going to get the casuals and many hardcore users. Sony, on the other hand, will get mostly hardcore Sony fans. I think the PS3's appeal will be much broader, I think the experimental new games and Blu-Ray appeal will help to broaden its appeal beyond the sequels of proven franchices. I don't that agree every casual Wii user is a lost potential PS3 customer. Games like Resistance 2 and Killzone 2 will probably appeal to many FPS fans, a gerne the PS2 was relatively weak at, there's also potential with regard to strategy games (also due to mouse & keyboard support). |
I agree with the bolded part. I think the difference is I just don't think there'll be enough of them to counter the Wii sales. Yes, a PS2 sale last generation probably was a lost sale for the GC/Xbox, and I think that still holds true. Maybe not as much, with the different experiences, but in the end, I just think it'll be enough to beat the Wii.
