Good for the 360! I wonder if the PS3 will pass it though?

Finally. And I think everyone saw this coming, even when the Wii was doing well. The attach rate on the console was abysmal as most people that bought it just bought it for WiiSports and a few casual exercise and dance games.

And in regards to Nintendo dropping support...that's why, man. When your new consumer base doesn't get how the whole "buy games for that $249 console) works, you get a lot of flops. Nintendo hoped these blue ocean gamers would gravitate to Mario and Zelda, but instead they ended up on Farmville and Angry Birds. Fickle bunch, really.

I didn't think you would be such an elitist, but your recent posts leave no room for doubt.

Never denied it; never would.

True, but I just thought you were better than that.

If that isn't an ironic statement, I don't know what is. Pray tell, what is so elitist about me not being surprised that the 360 has sold more software than the Wii? The attach rate was always a reason for Nintendo fans to be heckled. And if you really think that it was hardcore or even core gamers that got the Wii to 100 million, then we're not watching the same talk shows, mornign shows, nightly news features, etc.

Nintendo tried that path again with the WiiU and found that audience was gone. That's why we had such a drought in the first year. It wasn't so much a drought as it was a bunch of games made for the wrong audience.

Not really sure why things are getting personal here...but I don't mind arguing.
