Stop trolling on this thread, its pathetic.

Says the master troll himself=p.

But ok;.I agree with ya;


Now now, since his return from banned-dom(?) Leo-J's actually turned down his fanboyism alot. Kudos to him for it.

With all this trolling in this thread, I don't even know what was the topic/point of this thread.


 I'm not sure why this thread was made.  It's obviously serving it's purpose - to be another epic Sony vs. Nintendo battle.



"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

looks like ioi decided to be funny and put the PS3 at 201k for this week after he adjusted it...



End of 2009 Predictions (Set, January 1st 2009)

Wii- 72 million   3rd Year Peak, better slate of releases

360- 37 million   Should trend down slightly after 3rd year peak

PS3- 29 million  Sales should pick up next year, 3rd year peak and price cut

yes therefore its 15 weeks, you still have not adjusted it from 9.

I am gonna wait until NDP before I make any adjustments.. lol (JUST KIDDING)

Joel, I already pointed out exactness was not the point, and I said that in my post. I did a quick count and found 9(now 10).

Technically the Wii is an incremental improvement to the Cube it's like an overclocked version with more memory. The wiimote is what makes the system so good.
The other consoles PS3 and X360 are sadly using a controllers based on something from the 1990's and the sixaxis is sadly either technically flawed or not being used properly by the majority of developers.
At least the PS3 makes a good blu ray player though.
The Wii has outsold PS3 by over 2:1 ( 23M vs 11M).
Think that PS3 will do better this year though i am guessing will see (40M vs 25M ) as PS3 is getting a Big boost as an HD media player this year.

Let us talk again after the release of games like MGS4, GTA 4, FFXIII, VS XIII shall we?

The biggest Wii game for years probably is just released in America and considering that every Wii gamer was going to buy this game, it could have done a lot better. And why didn't Smash had better debut? Because about 50% of the Wii owners aren't "gamers"

Look I don't want to Bash the Wii, but I hate when people start bashing the PS3

Wait what? Did you just take a shot at a game thats going to sell over 2 million in its first month in the US? A game that just became the fastest selling console game EVER for Nintendo? A game that will be over 4 million sold soon and it hasn't even been 3 months? 

THIS is the game you just tried to use a proof that gamers don't exist on the Wii? The game on pace to do over 6 - 7 million? The game that did 1.4 million in a single week? The game, that in under 2 months outsold the LTD of its predecessor in Japan? 

You chose THIS GAME!? as your example of this? 

No matter how off the OP's numbers were, you went ahead and topped him for the most fail in this thread by far. I cannot even fathom what made you think choosing a game that has ALREADY OUTSOLD EVERY PS3 GAME AVAILABLE TO DATE without even being RELEASED in Europe was a good example for showing there aren't gamers with Wiis.

I really wish I had a fitting .GIF to place right here for you, but Im digging through my image stash, and I just cannot find anything that channels enough pure unfilitered "WTF" to do you justice.

What game should he had picked, Ninjabread Men?

I'll leave it at this, the PS3 and Wii are both great consoles. And, to be honest, both the Wii and PS3 fanboys who came on here to Bash, praise one anothers consoles are pathetic. Maybe you guys should spend your time PLAYING those consoles instead of flaming one another.

Get a life.
