I have to agree, the Playstation Portable, and Playstation 3 have more games that recieved reviews of 80% or more, than the Nintendo DS, and Nintendo Wii. So why is the Nintendo DS, and Nintendo Wii selling more than the Playstation Portable, and Playstation 3? I have no idea. Maybe they're too expensive.

However, when you compare the games, on each system, that got reviews of 85% or more, the numbers are much closer. In fact, the Playstation 3 has only 1 more game, that got reviews of 85% or more, than the Nintendo Wii. Same with the Playstation Portable, and the Nintendo DS. Now, if we view the games that recieved reviews of 90% or more, on the consoles, the Playstation 3 has just as many as the Nintendo Wii, and the Nintendo DS has two more than the Playstation Portable.

Also, the only game that recieved reviews of 90% or more on the Playstation 3, got worse reviews than the only game that recieved reviews of 90% or more on the Nintendo Wii. Yes, Twilight Princess was named "Game of the Year" on multiple websites, and got reviews that are higher than Resistance: Fall of Man.

To conclude, the Playstation Portable, and Playstation 3 has more "good" games than the Nintendo DS, and Nintendo Wii, has slightly more "great" games, but has less "awesome" games. Seeing how most people who buy consoles only buy a handful of games, they are most likely going to buy the "awesome" games first, and since the Nintendo Wii, and Nintendo DS, have more "awesome" games than the Playstation Portable, and Playstation 3, and exist on units far cheaper than Sony's, this may be one of the major reasons why Nintendo is outselling Sony.

Quoted for reinforcement, since we are all tired as hell of the stupid fanboy flame wars. Play what you like and stop bitching about what other people play. Talk about how great you think your PS3 games are, but stop trying to bash Nintendo games. Play your Nintendo games, and stop fighting against this stupid thread of desperate defensives. If you tards would spend more time playing games and less time bitching about them, you might enjoy life for once. Reply to this if you want, but I won't read it. You know why? I'm going to go play Super Paper Mario, because I don't give a rat's ass what you fanboys think I should be playing.
