A week apparently wasn't enough so bashing the whole month....might want to change it to quarter now that I think about it since it all seemed to stem from NPD's march figures and Nintendo's FY report.

It is Anti-Wii Month? Let me mark this in my calender...

Yes, apparently it was extended from Anti-Wii week by popular demand.

Maybe it will extend again to Anti-Wii quarter. Doh! Viper1 beat me.

What does Forbes expect Nintendo to do? Stop companies from releasing games on other consoles? This is stupid.

It is now noted that all major news outlets in the world are noobs and phailures because they don't like the Wii, good to know!
Seriously though, let it blow over, if indeed the article is filled with lies (which we'll see fairly soon at any rate) then there's nothing to argue/worry about.

Let it be your console of choice and you'd be pissed at mainstream media's inability to correctly understand the circumstances and issues that surround it.

If no one tells the mainstream media they are screwing up, they'll never change.

@ hihihi

Your graph is fail, how could you forget the negative sales!

Wii is going to lose 20% of its user base when this months numbers come up!

and PS360 will get that group + an unknown ammount of something else that = profit!

Where's jesus in your graph!? did they pass him already? EDIT:: Never mind I see the negative sales now, good graph... but no jesus?

I'm Unamerica and you can too.
