What recession?

 

the wii sells when their are games, no games, game droughts that last for months, economic crash, the damn thing is immune to all.

I don't understand it, it's the console with the least features, the least functionality, the worst graphics, crappy online, laggy controls and yet people buy it up...it defies logic, it makes me question these people...

least features - people don't care

worst graphics - see previous generation

crappy online - not

laggy controls - not

 



My Mario Kart Wii friend code: 2707-1866-0957

Wii market share: 55%

PS3 market share: 16%

Xbox 360 market share: 30%

OMFG, the Wii is feeding on the PS3s market share. If the Wii goes over 50% it will be because the PS3 dropped below 20%. OUCH!

Xbox 360 = Anvil, Wii = Hammer, PS3 = In hard place to be.



Tease.

The only control lag I have EVER faced is when I was playing Brawl Online's Wifi when it reached its capacity because of too many users.

It outsells... DS?

What?

Wii outsold DS in Americas last week. And the week before that... And 2 weeks before that again, and the week before that..

 

It isn't something new.

 

When it's:

1) Not a 7 digit number

2) Losing to the DS in others (lol)

You never bother looking =P

 The problem is, Nintendo doesn't know if they can keep selling up to 140M (or more). If they start making 35M consoles a year, and only 15M sells, they have to shut down factories (or sell them) just 1-2 years after they bought them. Nintendo is (as everyone knows) very careful and conservative with money. I don't see them upping Wii production ever again.

The Wii just keeps taking market share away from the PS3 while the 360 is holding its ground.

Numbers were up pretty fast. If Microsoft had released a big game in Japan this week it could of hit 1mil.

So now we know it is very possible for it do to do so.
