Interestingly, that fad seems to be ending.  Wii Fit sales have sunk to a pathetic 19,514.  How the mighty have fallen, indeed.

 

Wii Fit is the old version, it's Wii Fit Plus now which sold over 500K last week.

It's funny, for two straight gens, people claimed Nintendo was "doomed/domed", "on their way out" and such....

Haven't people learned, Nintendo continues to have the last laugh. They got their asses handed to them by Sony for two gens, while continuing to make money, and more money than Sony.

"Domed" eh....?

 I think you'll find this thread proves Nintendo are doomed and on their way out.

 Have you not seen how rapidly they're losing marketshare!?

You can't be serious. Losing marketshare? Do you REALLY think the PS3 or 360 can catch up? Seriously? For that to happen, Nintendo would have to literally stop selling units altogether, and even then it would take these two so long to catch Nintendo. Look at where they are, nearly 30 million units ahead of the 360 (nearly ALL of he PS3's entire userbase) and 34 million untis ahead of the PS3. To catch the Wii's numbers, these two have to pratically DOUBLE in userbase. Remember, that would also consist of the Wii STOPPING altogether.

Just. Isn't. Possible.

Nintendo lost 0.2% market share in the last three months.

 That means in 740 months Nintendo will have 0% marketshare, it's definitely doomed.

No no, look at an exponential function.  In the first 3 months, it's .2%.  In the next 3 months, it's 2%.  In the third three months, 20%!


@theprof: People tend to deal with depressing situations through humor.  All this BS about a joke thread is just people attempting to laugh the Wii's impending issues off.

I just realized you're joking. Nobody could possibly post this in all seriousness..........................................can they?

Well, the year before that, Wii had gained 22% marketshare. So, it actually lost 22.2% of potential marketshare, which means next year it will be down to 26.6 marketshare :P

How many of these baiting threads will we have..? You can say it's a parody, but it's not like anything separates this so called parody from the real thing.

I would have been one of the first responders if it wasn't clear you were a Wii owner.

 I think you'll find the thing that seperates this thread from baiting thread is that it's obviously a parody and not a baiting thread.

*facepalm*

It's baiting people into thinking it's real and responding as such. You could say that it's obviously a parody because the arguments made are so inane, but the same thing can be true of the real thing. It's Poe's Law applying in a different context.
