@Majin-Tenshinhan: What phone do you have? I was just thinking that since you have a problem in making the posts, while i don't.

 

 

Oh, I don't really have a problem making posts, just takes so long to type on a cell phone when I could just wait until later and use my keyboard :p But it's a Sony Ericsson z610i.

I acknowledge almost every one of those games as a failure.

This is why Rol is unstoppable!

For those who do not understand, people have to defend every time a Wii game does not sell -- but the same is not said for PS3 and Xbox 360 releases.

Maybe that's becouse Wii fanatics like to wave the flag that it outsells PS3 and X360 combined and whenever third party developer release annual results all those Wii fanatics are always crying they lose money becouse they release on HD systems.

But somehow when a game comparable to what is available on HD consoles comes and all dust settles on the sales it fails to reach any serious numbers unless it is collection of minigames or music game.

If Wii is so amazing 3rd party core game platform then why has CoD 5 WaW sold 3 times less than PS3 version - platform with less than half userbase.

Dear lord, this isn't even worth a response. Gee, I wonder why a gimped version of a game sells a third of what the non-gimped version did on a different console. This is a real tough one, I tell ya.



nintendo sells a ton of frist party games.
but there thrid party sales dont sell as good as compareed to the 360 and ps3



VITA 32 GIG CARD.250 GIG SLIM & 160 GIG PHAT PS3

@Coolguy: Except that 3rd party games sell better on Wii than on the other two.

Not if you ignore the vast majority of titles and only focus on the top ten or twenty titles for each system!
