And without emerging markets, the ps2 audience wasn't much bigger than wii's. The rest is just you making stuff up as usual.

wow, google searches. So you think if a person buys a console but not it's successor, that person dissappeared?

You're the one not aknowledging what wii is and all it acomplished.

Uhmm... depends on what you consider "much bigger." NA, Europe, and Japan is like 130 million vs 90 million.

I'm saying people were abandoning the Wii even when it was selling great. Which is why PS360 managed to sell great during that gen as well. I blame the lack of 3rd party support, consumers went to other consoles.

I acknowledge is the greatest success ever among casual audiences. To core games, it was a modest success. Nintendo wanted the core audience with Wii U and that was a mistake.

more like 120m.

You're saying that and you're completely wrong. And even when someone owns a console ands buys another in the same generation, that's not abandoning.

A repeat of the usual.

It's a huge misconception that Wii had a sudden halt in sales, it didn't, it had a gradual decline from 2008 to 2011.

 

2008-24.2 million

2009-21.3 million

2010-17.3 million

2011-11.5 million

It declined faster than the competitors. In 2011 the HD twins BOTH outsold Wii.

Again, I blame library.

It sold more than competitors, I also blame library.
