Is this going to happen every time their market share increases by .1. I don't even know why pro Wii people would even care anymore. It seems like no matter what percentage of market share they have they are never going to get the kind of third party support a market leader should.

Do I smell a hater amongst the crowd? *Sniff**Sniff*. Nah probably just a troll mixed with the aroma emanating from my ass.


 No you're 100% correct I am being cynical, but really are you seeing many AAA games that aren't made by Nintendo? You're lucky the first party support is as strong as it is.

Honestly I'm just playing devil's advocate right now. If I'm really pissing you off I'll stop.

 True but at least try to hold off until you get to whole numbers. It's sort of ridiculous



Great isn't it?

Nintendo wouldn't be Nintendo had they not produce quality games for their systems. If thrid party developers would cease making throw-away games and start making some high budget quality games then maybe Nintendo wouldn't have to rely so much on their own games to sell their systems. The last Nintendo console (handheld not included since the DS has all the third party support in the world) to garner such massive third party support was the SNES and it seems as though we just might be heading back in that direction again. 

I apologize if my reply came off a little harsh but I was just trying to add some humor into it as well. Guess you didn't see it that way.

Was it not Sir Physics whom said "What goes up, must come down" ?

Oh yes, you heard me correctly

That just reminded me of Sony's transition from the PS2 to the PS3.

Oh yea, I went there.

Beer is for pussies, I only drink things that are 50 GL or more.

So what is with the beer thing? I am missing some joke?
