@splatman1981,

You do realize how incredibly easy it is to disprove what you just said right? Specifically the part about not effecting the market.

The fact is that the Wii does impact the market. Every time it gets a big franchise exclusive and every time a well known dev team works on a Wii game for a year it is effecting the games market. It most certainly is a full-fledged console and it effects the market just as much as any other console....probably more so.

If you want to look at the Wii as a toy its your viewpoint and nobody can stop you but think about what you said for a moment. The fact that the market is devoting resources to supporting the product means it is impacting the market. There isn't room for debate there at all. And I love debate! But its just a fact...sorry =P

So basically thinking about it more reveals that John was probably right again? Move along folks, nothing new to see here..

The PS2 launched in March 200 in Japan,, that's 8 extra months for it to sell
