People need to be realistic, Wii Sports is probably one kind of game in history with right hardware, game and hardware that made people playing games even in retirements homes, hardly we will see something like that ever again.

I don't think we literally meant "Wii Sports". I personally meant a mass appealing game. A phenomenon.

 

On Gameboy,Pokemon was Wii Sports.

On NES, Super Mario was Wii Sports.

On SNES, Street Fighter II was Wii Sports.

On Xbox, Call of Duty was Wii Sports.

On PS2, GTA III was Wii Sports.

 

Nothing cant be compared to Wii Sports, we talking about game that sold 83m and that brought to gaming totally different audience for 1st time ever. Maybe Minecraft in some deegre but thats multiplatform game.

PS2 is best selling console of all time and not single game passed 20m mark and only 3 of them passed 10m mark.

Sony is a different beast. They get by on hardware, third party support, and the strength of their diverse library as a whole. Right now, Nintendo doesn't have that luxury. They haven't had that in a long time.

 

Zelda is a fantastic game... But so was SM64.

Difference is that Switch is also great and appealing like hardware, same couldn't be said for N64.
