not yet, we're still waiting for the wii fad to end. 2009 will be rough for the wii with no big games. Christmas 2009 I can see the wii getting owned.

but as for christmas 2008 the wii is gonna win

nah, the wii will have a fantastic year 2009, maybe its getting worse after that, but nobody can tell. The wii now is hip, and its not because of the games, its because of the wii itself. Wii buyers usually dont buy it for rpg game x or sports game y, they usually are just morons who want to swing with a stick in wii sports or wii fit. Its totally beyond me, but its the way it is. And im not talking about the die hard ninty fans who only want to see some better games on their system, they deserve better...

Casual gaming might be something nice for the devs (although nobody except for nintendo did profit), but it sucks for the average gamer.

It's not often I do this but.... LoL at you two.

If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing (mostly)

And shepherds we shall be,

For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints

I agree with this statement.

Real Nintendo fans are ones who bought Gamecube. Bandwagon jumpers are most of the ones buying the Wii. Most people buying the wii are just buying it to see what all the fuss is about with the motion controls

That's ridiculous. Why would people who owned a PS2 and who are now buying Wii be morons? The real morons are the ones who agree with this statement.

I pretty much agree with this.

On the topic ... I don't think 360 has a chance to outsell the Wii. As much as I would like that.

Yeah. I don't agree with his full statement. Just the point he was trying to get across that Wii has a popular uprising in the general public and that the hardcore Nintendo fans are essentially represented by the Gamecube numbers.
