Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Has VGChartz become the home for Nintendo fans?

Seriously, the forums have been very Nintendo driven lately. As big a failure as Wii U is, it doesn't make sense. I am talking sales wise, not that it has terrible games.

As much as I dislike Xbox, it would make more sense to talk about it more. Of course PS is the most successful, so why not more Sony talk? Maybe 3DS, but a lot of Wii U posts are posted. If Nintendo is so interesting, why isn't it selling Wii U's and 3DS' like hotcakes and crushing Sony and MS?

VGchartz forums aren't strictly about sales you know that right?



because a lot of nintendo fans are left over from the wii dominance. also the mods are Nintendo friendly (not a bad thing, they dont let it stop them from banning nintendo fans but its a fact that most prefer nintendo)  so i would imagine some nintendo fans are drawn here from that



Ltd predictions by the time 9th Gen comes out

Ps4:110million

Xbox one :75 million( was 65) 

Wii u: 20 milliion

Well a lot of the xbox fans seem to just be in the xbox nation and there are plenty of Sony threads when Sony gets some news too... The difference atm is that Nintendo is getting great news as well as some eh news at the sametime so we see more Nintendo threads atm while PS has been a bit quite at of late. The late sales don't help either

Oh and sales =/= forum popularity

Well I had an explanation ready, but it seems I have misplaced my crayons

*edit*

Look at Yuri's answer. It seems to be the most correct.

Yes, but sales are what the site is mostly about. It is it's main feature. Also, it would seem that more console sales would drive more discussion than a system with lower sales. I'm confused!



Just because Nintendo is an interesting choice for topics of some, doesn't equate to increased sales.

More often then not, the Nintendo fans that are talking about Nintendo related things already have those said consoles.. :/

Maybe that's why I got banned for over a week for saying Nintendo games are mostly for kids. Won't be writing that anymore!
