no shit? I got to see tropic thunder

Yeah Matthew McConaughey plays Wii Sports in two parts of the movie. It made me lol.

The Wii is being the American Idol of game consoles..

It is about time Nintendo gets some love from the world. The last half decade has made Nintendo sad.

Remember the NES in the movie The Wizard? Well I guess Nintendo probably funded the whole movie... oh well.

Let Wii bask in the light like the NES did in the USA.

Wii has gotten so popular to the point that the majority of it's buyers/owners are not even gamers, let alone even touch the system from time to time.  Perhaps that's why the console lacks so many "gamer" appealing titles, but moreso on gimmicky titles (nothing wrong with that) which only make a mission to take advantage of the motion sensing capabilities of the peripherals (like Wii Fit, for example)

But Nintendo doesn't give a damn, they're selling a helluva lot more consoles than the other two!!

Personally, though, I'm getting a lot more fun out of my PS3 and 360 than my Wii.

Maybe the Wii is not popular and its just that the PS3 and 360 are UNpopular.

I also expect the Wii to outdo the PS2 over time.

Dont forget monster hunter tri

 You keep on saying this, and you keep getting proven wrong. Why do you keep saying it?

You're wrong. 1 game turned this whole generation around. The Wii may have the most important, or maybe 2nd most important, game in history.

PS: I would say that the quote of the generation should have correct grammar.

its too bad pc gamers all flocked towards the wii moreso thent eh other two oh wait most of them are betweent he ages of 16-25 so they are hardcore. but wait teh hardcore dont buy teh wii..hhmmm i think we have a dilema. i myself would say im a hardcore gamer. i am currently building me a beast pc but its gonna cost me the amount of a ps3 but will look 1000000 times better. i also own a wii. i know many hardcore gamers that instead of just owning a wii they build their own pc's. my wife's cousin built a pc, is 16, owns a 360 and a wii. so according to a few posters hes hardcore. but he isnt hardcore cause he owns a wii. im sorry a gamer is a gamer period no more of this hardcore and casual junk.

Not counting all the Retro Nintendo stuff that started selling towards the end of the PS2 era?

I've seen a lot of Wii T-shirts in big box stores.

Maybe it's just me but i don't every remember seeing that before.

The occasional Mario shirt since the retro stuff got big.

I don't know.  Nintendo i guess is the king of merchandising when it comes to videogames.
