I don't think any of them are trying to port PS3/X360 to the Wii. We all know the Wii can't handle more than 7 enemies on screen at a time.

Sir, that is a lie. I have heard of those watered down ports at these forums! Also I believe that I have seen a wii game with more than 7 enemies on the screen!

So, you selectively chose to not believe that the Wii can't handle more than 7 zombies on screen at a time?

Plus, the Wii doesn't get ports. It gets rail shooters, birthing from fps on PS3/X360.

Those double negatives are so confusing. I have to give this some thought!

Yes, I think I did that. Oh wait! First you said enemies and now you said zombies. I think you are trying something there!

If it comes down to "fans," then what is Sony and Microsoft doing wrong to not be able to touch Nintendo in sales? I am sure there are not enough diehard "Nintendo fans" to buy 73 million Wiis. I think Nintendo tapped into an ignored market with the Wii launch that Microsoft with Kinect and Sony with Move are now trying to cater to. It goes a lot deeper than "Nintendo fans."

If it comes down to a younger audience, then would not Sony and Microsoft sell more hardware by catering to the younger audience? To that "younger audience" I would add senior citizens, moms, dads, little sisters, little brothers, and adults like me whose first experience playing video games was in the 1980s when we picked up the controller after our big brother to play the original Super Mario Bros. Nintendo has tapped into much more than a "younger audience."

In many respects, Nintendo takes many people, including myself, back to a more innocent time where games were played for fun and no one judged you on what game you played because everyone was playing the same game.

Except for those Sega kids, those damn hedgehog lovers :)

I hate to say it but the Wii is a refirbished improved GameCube. He's absolutely right, of course I see that in a more positive light then he is obviously portraying it. I think that UbiSoft was one of the Wii's biggest supporters out of the gate and Nintendo should take the publishers opinions very seriously.

Infact Nintendo has been taking alot of flack from publishers, Sega , EA and UbiSoft doing the majority of the talking. Honestly if you do not like what those publishers have to say perhaps your not a real gamer (Sorry to be so harsh) But Nintendo needs to take them seriously and we as gamers should not always shrug them off because they have contrary views to our own.

Fact is publishers aren't happy with the path Nintendo is choosing, fans and Nintendo should be willing to compromise and make accomadations for the publishers. Nintendo needs to continue listening to publishers when they launch the next system. Give the publishers what they want as they are almost as important as the consumer!

If nobody makes products for your system nobody will buy it. P.S UbiSoft's titles have been key to Nintendo's success starting with RedSteel and most recently JustDance! Nintendo please listen to one of the most important publishers in the world!

Ok, so then what is quality?  See what I mean.. ANYTHING you answer, will be your opinion, which means it is relative.

What is it about Resident Evil 5 for instance that makes it so superior to Just Dance? What if a 12 year old girl loves Just Dance but can't stand Resident Evil. Is she right or are you? You both have equal fun when playing your respective games, so who's to say one opinion is more "valid" than the other?

 Again, I realize we all have our own definition of quality,variety is the spice of life and all that, but what I am saying is the only way something relative like "quality" can truely be MEASURED in a concrete way is to look at what the MOST people like, in other words, SALES. It is the biggest sample size.

Think of a politician; if a politician recieves the most votes, they are generally viewed as the best politician suited for office. Sales work in a similar way, as people are voting with their wallets. They are investing their hard earned money in them, and thus saying "this is what I view to be best, and I'm showing my support by spending my money on it."

Think of many of the works of art, artists, entertainers, authors, books, games, movies, etc. of the past that we currently consider to be the standard of quality in our society. They are likely people/things/ideas that recieved the most popularity and thus have withstood the test of time in society. The things that weren't as popular faded, and were forgotten, because they weren't as liked. The things that stand the test of time are generally the things that recieve the most acclaim, or sales. And it's these things that are viewed in the grand scheme of things as being of the most quality.

The McDonald's comparison is laughable. Much of its food is notoriously BAD for you. Thus it is of less quality (for the human body at least).. Is playing Wii "bad for you?" I doubt you could make a serious argument that it is. In fact, it is actually quite good for you. Just look at Wii Fit :)

That doesn't surprise me one bit considering how the PS3 was selling back in 07/08.

No we should not. And I would not call Red Steel a key to anyone's success.

People didn't buy the Wii for RedSteel. People bought RedSteel because there were no other games to buy.

Ubisoft made a lot of money riding on Nintendo's wave early, even their games were average at best.

Just Dance is a recent IP. It was not released in 2006 to "cause" the Nintendo domination.
