Hot Item of the Holiday Season -- 2006, 2007, 2008 ....

This is just plain crazy.

Developers need to realize that there is a market for games for this system. And it would be nice if there were more good games and a variety of games.

And it's going to get even hotter in 2009 and 2010 (which I believe will be the peak year).

 

And then.. the Wii will suddenly stop selling and it will be proved that it's a fad right?

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

The store I work at received 210 Wii Fits during the week and all are in a big catalogue this week. It will be insane.

 



 


 

not totally related, but this thread reminded me.

I was in a game craze, which is relatively small store sort of like EBGames/Gamestop, and this older couple comes in asking about Wii Play. Well, they were really asking about the Wii in general.

When the store employee told them it cost 250 and they had them, they were like "oh, that is the same price as that other store" and walked out.

The whole time I'm thinking how stupid they are, and good luck finding one next week with the way this system is selling. Who knows, Nintendo may have just enough stock to make the vast majority of shoppers happy, but the sales of this console are insane, and the demand is even more insane.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

We also got a shit ton of Wii Fits... but no Wii's... Managment was upset... perhaps some other store got it, but that's unlikely since we are the second largest store in S. Ill
