I wasn't going to get into this and had only come to this topic to make sure it wasn't going to get nasty but I just have to clear this up:
  1. Mario Kart isn't Nintendo's most popular franchise, that would be Super Mario Bros.
  2. If you want to get nasty, it took two consoles to beat one Nintendo game that averages a good 10 points lower than it.
  3. Nintendo flooded the market? Yeah, they upped production but flooding the market is when you put A LOT of supply out there and then it just sits there. As long as Wii's move they aren't doing anything wrong.
  4. I could have swore I have seen interview after interview where Reggie says there is no mythical warehouse full of Wii's.


I wasn't going to get into this and had only come to this topic in the hope that it was going to get nasty but I just have to clear this up:

    1. Mario Kart and Super Mario Bros are both part of the same franchise. The clue is in the titles. Confusing, I know.

    2. It didn't take both consoles. Both versions of GTA4 well and truly spanked MKWii. 

    3. No comment.

    4. That's called a lie. It's what executives are paid to do.

I'd just like to take this opportunity to remind the wii glory supporters that this is what Pachter predicted. He said the wii would dominate for 2 years before it's sales started to decline. Those 2 years are not yet up. Bubbles can burst.
