Last post like this, I swear but it just came to me. "Wii bubble bursting is SO 2008."

Consensus opinion of game "journalists".

2006: The Wii sucks, and it will never sell.
2007: Ok, it is selling, but the bubble will soon burst.
2008: I was wrong about that bubble thing, but the Wii still sucks.

"I misunderstood the market. I did not envision so much of the market choosing a console that had nothing better than Wii Music..."

Gah. He bashes Wii Music, the bravest and most original game this year, and complains that the console couldn't do any better than that. Unless he understands that NO console this year had anything better than that he will continue to misunderstand the market.

Ok, that was a bit overkill. But he BASHED WII MUSIC!

I just want to let some folks know this much: This is actually what professional journalism is, or at least what the mainstream media has degraded down to. Sensationalizing garners more viewers for an article, and bashing something that as of now 46 million people have bought will cause outrage and fury.

If you want to know what it's like, check out Fox News or CNN. Which basically means that it's people like him get paid to get people irritated.

Indeed, mid-June would represent week 30 for the Wii which is 48 weeks shy of the 18 month mark.  In short the Wii had been out only 6 months and in fact it would be another year, just before June of 2008, before the Wii hit the 18 month mark.  Of course he couldn't have been referring to 2008 either since Boogie was in fact shown in '07 and not '08 and was released in August of 2007.

Wow, what a narrow-minded fool. At least he's not making any more predictions.

So if I understand properly, the Wii had been out for 18 months in June 07?

Give the guy a break, I'm sure when forming sentences devoid of logic or reason math is really tough.

unfortunately, sort of how many occupations take it upon themselves to call themselves engineers when they clearly aren't

frankly I can't stand game "journalists" because they aren't, they're simply obsessives that lucked out and happen to get paid to voice their opinion on their favorite toy,

Are we all sure that this isn't just Bruce in disguise? He may have gotten tired of being ignored and simply pretended to be someone else so that maybe people will listen to his asinine tantrums this time.
