Tell that to the Wii haters. Its all good though. Its because Nintendo and Microsoft screwed up.


I'm a wii hater, but I dont remember nintendo announcing half as many games as the PS3 or 360 did, and therefore it sold on the hype of the over-rated (by consumers) and under-rated (by reviewers) motion games.

This excludes 'normal' nintendo games, because from systems prior to the wii, as well as the wii U, we know they are not going to help a nintendo home system sell even close to 100m units.

Also unlike its competitors, it represented a poor power/price ratio, missed most third party games, and they were the worst version when 3rd party games did come out. Furthermore, while PS3 and 360 was making online gaming massive on consoles, it was just an afterthought on the wii.

Most its failures are exactly the same as the wii U, the only difference is the motion fad was there to save the wii. Trying to defend that against everything Sony have actually done correctly for the PS4 is just .... im not even gonna say it.
