4. Brand loyalty - Nintendo has millions of fans, so it's guaranteed that their systems have a strong launch. But what is really favoring the Wii compared to the moderate successful Nintendo 64 and the Gamecube, is that Nintendo fans have aged and aren't little kiddies anymore. This means they are old enough to legally purchase and own guns with which they force their friends and relatives to buy a Wii as well.

I wish there was some kind of clapping icon, because this deserves it. Bravo.

seconded.

those are hilarious

 



Not trying to be a fanboy. Of course, it's hard when you own the best console eve... dang it

Many people are still puzzled by the Wii's overwhelming success and can't really explain why the little white box is selling so well.

 

its because its cheap and appeals to a different type of gamer. imo it appeals to the set below, hence easily explains why wii sells so much.

  • party gamer
  • girl gamer
  • child gamer
  • mini-game gamer
  • granny gamer
  • loyal ninty gamer (that waits and waits for nintys core games)

wii will not sell it self on games but instead sell it self upon the ease-appeal to the gamers set upon in my bullet list.

 

That's funny because the last time that i checked Nintendo had realeased many of their main franchises in the first year of the Wii while Sony hasn't and won't until the 2-3 year of the PS3, that's funny isn't it?

The reason that I bought it isn't listed. It's the blue light. Oh... the blue light.

It's hard to take your delusions seriously when you're wearing a poop hat.
