The fact that the Wii is very very different from the PS360 doesn't mean it's not directly competing. That's just smart business. You want to differentiate yourself from your competitors, to advertise a unique experience that they can't provide.

This is true only if you can offer, to the same gamer that wants to play Halo, MGS, or FF, something that they would rather play. The Wii does not do that.

 Now that shows where you are coming from. That is complete and total opinion. You would rather play MGS than No More Heroes, YOU would rather play Halo than Zack and wiki. The flaw is again in definition and assumption that everyone agrees with you. Gamers only want to play Halo rather than Zack and Wiki because by definition they aren't gamers unless they agree with that. Ok, what if they are a core gamer that would rather play zack and wiki and no more heroes over Halo and Gears of war? Can that not exist, are you not a core gamer if that is true?

 

Apparently the wii isn't competing for the "core gamer" because you aren't a "core gamer" unless you own a PS3 or 360.
