So, another page has elapsed, and what have we accomplished?

Looks like nothing again.

There are still deluded fanboys of all types and nothing is being resolved, except this thread wasting server space, and PS360 fanboys saying the Wii isn't competing with it.

This thread looks like a dud, no offense to the OP though, it's not your fault, it's the community at large's fault.

This just in Barbie outsells PS3 and XBox 360! Watch when FF13 comes out and Japans PS3 sales upupupupupupup!

I wonder if KH3 will come out on Wii?

My guess is no...

Sry.

Not nearly as irritating as necrothreading to prove a month old point.

 

NJ5 linked to this thread in another thread covering a similar topic, hence why I was navigated here and inadvertently bumped it.



"I mean, c'mon, Viva Pinata, a game with massive marketing, didn't sell worth a damn to the "sophisticated" 360 audience, despite near-universal praise--is that a sign that 360 owners are a bunch of casual ignoramuses that can't get their heads around a 'gardening' sim? Of course not. So let's please stop trying to micro-analyze one game out of hundreds and using it as the poster child for why good, non-1st party, games can't sell on Wii. (Everyone frequenting this site knows this is nonsense, and yet some of you just can't let it go because it's the only scab you have left to pick at after all your other "Wii will phail1!!1" straw men arguments have been put to the torch.)" - exindguy on Boom Blocks

On the other hand, anyone can make a list just like that of all the games that are on PS360 AND Wii (like all the Maddens, the Tigers, the NBA Lives, the Guitar Heroes, the Rock Bands, the Lego games, PES '08, etc.), and make a list of all the upcoming games (Tomb Raider Underground, Alone in the Dark, Top Spin 3, Tom Clancy's H.A.W.X., NHL2K9, Sonic Unleashed, Facebreaker, Call of Duty: WaW, the new Spyro, random superhero games, random Disney games, etc).

"Should i continue? =))"

See how easy this is to do!?  You only wish to play that angle for the sake of this argument, so it's only right that I play the alternate angle as a counterpoint.

Nice try though, Crazzy!  =((((
