Is it safe to assume you wrote it then?

Otherwise, please explain why it's right on the money.

The reason the Wii is so popular is because it is appealing to the 6 billion people who aren't interested in first and third person shooters.

And here is the Wii Bingo board :)

B	I	N	G	O
Nintendo is destroying the industry!	When PS60 get price cut, Wii is through.	Wii Fit!!????	Nintendo is abandoning the hardcore!	When this game comes out, THEN the PS360 will take off!
Nintendo not serious about online.	Wii is just a party machine.	Wii sells because it is cheap.	Pachter says…	Nintendo milks profit due to inferior hardware!
Gamecube started well at first too…	Wii is a fad!	FREE	LOL minigames!!1!	PS3 is on a ten year plan.
Wii is two Gamecube systems put together by duct tape!	Argh!!! Non-games!!!1!!!	Wii-mote is a gimmick.	Stupid casual gamers!	Only Nintendo games sell on Nintendo systems.
When HD adoption rate goes up, Wii is finished.	Who cares about Wii sales? All the real games are on PS60!	Where are the third parties? LOL!	VC is overpriced rom dump!	What happens when people get bored of Wii Sports?

Not quite bingo... :(

It sells more because Nintendo is shipping less -> It sells more because it sells less.
Gotta love the logic, man!

This is invisible text!

The "inferior" Wii is selling more than the :cheap and performant" 360 because not everyone is "superior" and they stick to the console they understand.

After all,why play tennis when you can grab a stick and look at cartoony characters on your tv trying to play tennins? Why walk/run in the park,when you can buy wii fit and pretend you`re burning callories?

I like Mario since i was a kid,but now...no thanks,Nintendo.
