Damn, these 2 were nasty. They sure convinced me not to buy a Wii. Now wii fans know how was being a PS3 fan in 2006.
I still don't understand how some people can bring themselves to hate a (sophisticated) toy with such a passion.
It's like the Wii stole their women several times over.
...wait.

Nice one!
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Nintendo shares oversold: report
Sun Apr 19, 2009 4:34pm EDT
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Nintendo Co Ltd (7974.OS) shares are oversold, Barron's said on Sunday, and reported that strong growth for the Japanese maker of electronic game systems should resume this year.
The weekly investing magazine noted Nintendo shares have been hit since the company reduced its expectations for the fiscal year that ended last month, based on the company's more conservative outlook for Wii sales, news that Sony's (6758.T) PlayStation outsold Wii in Japan last month and amid broader concern about Japan's weak economic outlook.
Yet Barron's said some analysts believe the company beat profit expectations for the year completed, delivering $5.6 billion operating profit, and predict that earnings will rise sharply in fiscal 2010. Video-game sales, which analysts see as recession-proof, are seen rising in the second half of this year.
Barron's also said investors were ignoring Nintendo's strong balance sheet, its capacity for boosting its dividend and shares that are priced reasonably relative to the company's projected growth.

“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.
^^many professional videogame journalist must be rolling in their graves XD
Haha, you guys are funny, damn. Well yes, I am the one that wrote that article, and it's kind of funny, you guys are your conversation drew me in as I saw you linked to my article.
Thanks a lot chasmatic12 for your compliments on the article. I spend a ton of time researching for it and writing it, so I'm glad I'm getting the responses that I am for the most part.
Okay, now Bobbuffalo, what I meant by "Nintendo vs. Gamers" is that some gamers are hating on the Wii, and what Nintendo is doing. Nintendo in a sense, "fighting against" the gamers. Metaphor, but whatevs if you didn't catch that.
Last but not least, NJ5, about the Halo remark, it was blatant sarcasm, and if you read the xbot fanboys about what they brag about on the Wii, see if they don't say f***ing halo. I'll edit it and put (sarcasm intended) just for you though. ;)
Well, that's about it. Thanks for posting a link to my article though. It's sad to hear that from your guys' responses, you probably didn't even read the article, yet trolled and made funny comments. :P Take a look at the front image. Now you say that I didn't call that. :D
@SuperMario190, ur correct about the title
Im sorry for putting ur article in this thread. Clearly there has been a alot of ignorant press and i misjudged it before adding it.

Here are my thoughts on the latest rash of articles. If the Wii is in trouble and it is outselling the PS3 and Xbox 360 combined -- what does that say about the industry? Mike from Morgantown |
I just read the first one and a better title would be something like "Why the Wii sells without even trying", but that would have been too rational.
