Modern War 2? lol

Well, if Malstrom wants to know why everyone is talking about 'Modern War 2' instad of NSMB Wii, maybe he should take a look at the American preorder charts.

1 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 X360   821,101
3 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 PS3   245,835
28 New Super Mario Bros. Wii Wii    39,563

Does that mean you are willing to bet that either MW2 version will outsell NSMB Wii?

The 360 version in America, definitely.

Well, that's the only thing that could possibly happen, in all other regions NSMB Wii is guaranteed to win. Although NSMB DS sold more than Modern Warfare on the 360 in America, so the Wii game might achieve a clean sweep.

But people (Malstrom) don't seem to realise that most of these analysts are from America and America is the only market they're analysing.



Malstrom should stop making that much sense, or he will end up crucified or assassinated like the rest of them.



Damage control from a person who complains about damage control for a living.

So? NSMB on the DS sold nearly as much as all Modern Warfare versions combined and Wii Fit outsold them. Going by your logic, analysts should talk a lot about NSMB Wii and Wii Fit Plus.

Okay. I'll bet you MW2 on 360 will sell more than Wii Fit Plus and NSMB Wii in America.

Going by preorders alone I am already winning 20:1. You have a lot of catching up to do.

Who is Maelstrom?

And why am i suddenly seeing quite a few Wii sort-of damage control articles appear?
This seems very uncommon.

The PS3/360 slim / price drops have brought about much "Wii is doomed" talk, hence the "Wii is not doomed" articles.


As for the HD twins comment, does anyone else find it offensive? That thought never even occured to me, though I guess I can see why. I normally use "HD consoles," but twins is shorter, so it's more convinient to type... hrm.

I think most of the Wii talk has been the lack of focus on the Wii by the gaming media. Sometimes, it almot feel like the Wii is not even there,  and a lot of Nintendo fans take offense to it.

It wasn't really a bash from Reggie. Negative commentary, sure, but he didn't really attack them.



Monster Hunter: pissing me off since 2010.

"After all, it is Sony and Microsoft who are showing off motion controls. Nintendo is not showing off HD anything. It clear to see who is following who."

Some people. Many people indeed, don't understand this statement.
