Why Does Wii Really Get A Bad Rap?

Market leaders with really low sales in comparison to what sony managed to do with the playstation consoles. The PS1 sold  almost double the games that the NES did and almost 3 times the games that the SNES sold. The PS1 also had a higher tie ration than either one. So I doubt that nintendo made more money on NES and SNES than sony did with the PS1.

Yeah hardware and software sales are not always an indicator of profit. Just ask X360 and PS3, I'd venture to say NES and SNES each garnered more profit than both combined.

PS3 and Xbox 360 both lost billions, so yeah.

 

Anyway, the Wii was a very Nintendo console, the most Nintendo a console had been since the NES. At the opposite end of the spectrum was GameCube, the least innovative console Nintendo ever released along with the 3DS; although, the 3DS at least resembled another Nintendo console, and not some feature-gimped kiddified version of PlayStation 2. If you look at the Nintendo fans who disliked Wii, they’re the GameCube defence force; they’re the same people among the Nintendo fan base who don’t like the Switch - another very Nintendo console.
