| Shameless said: Once again, I am going to reiterate that Nintendo is doing nothing new gameswise compared to last generation apart from games that are tied with peripherals. The high sales must therefore be caused by peripherals.

Yes, there is no question that the Wii's innovative control scheme and refined image have made it the market leader.
And...? You're not even making a point, you're making a stop-gap to another conclusion, or you're just trolling.
One could argue that any success the 360 has is because of the headset peripheral which allows for easy online voice chat, making it the console of choice for gamers who want to play online (except for PC users who get the same privileges for free, of course).
"I mean, c'mon, Viva Pinata, a game with massive marketing, didn't sell worth a damn to the "sophisticated" 360 audience, despite near-universal praise--is that a sign that 360 owners are a bunch of casual ignoramuses that can't get their heads around a 'gardening' sim? Of course not. So let's please stop trying to micro-analyze one game out of hundreds and using it as the poster child for why good, non-1st party, games can't sell on Wii. (Everyone frequenting this site knows this is nonsense, and yet some of you just can't let it go because it's the only scab you have left to pick at after all your other "Wii will phail1!!1" straw men arguments have been put to the torch.)" - exindguy on Boom Blocks
