Now, there also not little part of casual non-gamers, which bought Wii already. So, practically in future, wii will be bough mostly by casual non-gamers and maybe 10-20% of casual gamers. So it will be interesting to see, what will be wii sales, after most previous GC owners bought wii.

 well......Wii sales will continue to sky-rocket because the casual market that has been tapped is only the tip of the iceberg

I agree with konnichiwa's agreement of Riot.  Well stated Riot

 I am assuming (and it is hard to tell) that you are sayign you are interested to see how the Wii will sell after all the Nintendo fans have bought it. The answer is it will continue to sell at a phenomenol rate like it has been for over  year now. The Wii passed the Japan and Others totals of the Gamecube before the hollidays. Gamers have bought and will continue to buy the system in addition to its expanded audience.

Looking at the banned poster, what happens when your vg money goes into the negative?

Further, how negative can you before you hit the max negative number.

Oh yeah, go Wii!!!!

^y are u talking about VG$?

The DS is fantastic, but I don't compare it to the consoles. I consider the Wii to be our market leader, which is a shame.

So the last console you consider a "proper market leader" was from Nintendo, and now that Nintendo is once again on top you don't like it? 

Games are the best measure of a console's worth.  For the past decade we've had to choose between the awesomeness of Nintendo games and the awesomeness of the huge number of awesome games that naturally end up on the leading console.  At last both of these groups are again going to be united and I have to ask:  why are you so upset?  Judging from other posts

I would guess that you think that third parties will inexplicably decide not to put great games on the console with as much market share as its two competitors combined and I would like to know why you would think that would happen (if I am right).

 I don't get why you think that Final-Fan.  He is only saying that Nintendo is just a great developper like their are others and his taste/interests of games goes beyond the Nintendo games..

I agree as well. If Nintendo's games satisfy all your gaming needs, more power to you, but even though Nintendo has many great games and franchises (other than most of their Mario franchises), there's more to gaming than Nintendo. There's photo-realistic, pulse pounding, action packed FPSs and racers that you aren't REQUIRED to use a motion sensor to drive the car. (believe me, after a few motion sensor races in Motorstorm, I firmly decided I will NEVER get Mario Kart Wii even though I LOVED mario kart on the Cube. And fyi, other than the pointer capability of the Wiimote, which doesn;t help when "driving" a vehicle, the Wiimote's and Sixaxis's motion sensors are practically identical) So yeah, for the present, I'll stick with my PS3; though I won't hesitate to buy a game for my Wii if a game comes out that interests me, though I've seen nothing in the forseeable future that fits that category.

Well, he has said it's a "shame" that the Wii is going to be this gen's market leader.  Since he can't really COMPLAIN about the existence of Nintendo games, even if he doesn't play them himself, then I can only conclude that he thinks the Wii will not have great games gravitate to it like the SNES did. 

That, or he's a graphics whore and just dislikes the idea of the least powerful system getting all the good games YET AGAIN.  Hey, that actually made sense.  The SNES was the last time the market leader was the more powerful system, and it's the last time he was happy with who the market leader was.  Is this the reason, Riot of the Blood?

 I almost agree totaly with you. I don't know what I will do about Mario Kart...I didn't enjoyed the last two Mario Karts on N64 and GC and the Wii version doesn't look so appealing for me. (In fact the last karting game I enjoyed was Crash Team racing) and I hated Motorstorm...

Oh yeah  I see enough games that interest me on the Wii that still have to release but that is the same for PS3 and X360.

In 2007  The Wii was for me the console with the most games that interested me followed by x360 and the PS3 as last one with like 5 games that appealed to me.

In 2008 The Wii doesn't have so many games that interests me...if I can name 5 that I really want or took my attention that is already much while both X360 and PS3 have a lot more games who see their release (normally) this year.  Oh well probably their are some unannounced games for the Wii that we will see this year and will take my attention.
