I'm pretty confident now the PS3 will squeak past the Wii WW. Once the price goes down low enough for the developing countries, it should be a good situation for the PS3 to continue selling. It will probably be 360 5m less than Wii and PS3 5m more than Wii when all said and done. Close race, though.

If you said the PS3 could outsell the Wii lifetime in 2007, you got crucified.

In all honesty, a close race is what makes the consumer win - even if fanboys to particular corporations don't like that.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials 

 

Conservatives:  Pushing for a small enough government to be a guest in your living room, or even better - your uterus.

The Wii shined so bright earlier in the gen though. It won't even pass the original Playstation.

Indeed. I remember when people thought it might even pass the PS2. It's like some forgot how it used to perform.

It succeeded in all ways. Nintendo did not say it was going to be out for 10 years! yet, it make more money than the other with such a poop hardware for its time. Nintendo lost money on the last year the Wii was out, mostly because of the 3DS. The other two has been out for 7 years, but they just turned profit in the last three years. In everyway it is a shame that the other two consoles are stil catching up. Oh, also remember that it didn't have the support and third party library that the other two had. You just mentioned it was ashame that it was the first one to go, well what can we say about the other two?

You're looking at it from a share window, which isn't the point of this topic at all. Longevity should be priority, in addition to making money. The 360 and PS3 outlasted the Wii. What's that say? They had better support. The Wii will be remembered for a lot of good, but standing the test of time will not be one of those things.

So, depending on your perspective, the "shame" card can be spun in any direction.


look, i have no more than good things to both system selling 160 million units, the most in any generation. But making a thread about this when the Wii is 20 millions ahead doesn't look right at all. The Wii stands the test of time with its games, no hardware does that. Ask the NES and SNES why people still play on them. It won't be because of the home screen or apps for sure!
