10.17M Wiis in 2008 :eek:
-
Very suprised to see that all the home consoles were relatively close in sales numbers in December.

Wii Music is the worst game (if it can be called that) ever :lol:
-
The PS3 was sucking hind tit yet again. It was nowhere near close, it was outsold 3-1 by the Wii, and 2-1 by the 360.
The only positive for the PS3 is that total 2008 sales were only roughly 1.5 million behind the 360. -

I can understand the cry of defeat. I mean when you put all this effort into a system like blu ray, hard drives, online experiences, and such but the rest of the world would rather sit back and play wii sports, its pretty deflating. But the wii is there competitor, unless Sony wants to admit that the Ps3 is a Blu Ray player first, and a gaming machine 2nd.TrueDolFan likes this. -

It also might be the case that it isn't a competitor in the fact it doesn't take away customers from them according to their research.
No one plays Wii Sports. You just wiggle the stick around and the game does whatever it wants to ;). People would rather watch Wii Sports with the illusion of playing it. -
There is no doubt in my mind that when parents go to buy their kids a console, they see the price of the wii and their sold. And I know Ps3 isn't aiming at kids, but that could be why their losing so badly. After all, advertising solely to hardcore gamers and adults is the reason the Dreamcast died. -

Soul Caliber was awesome and so was PowerStone, Dupree. I believe you can get it for the PSP though. -
I just feel having control is important when playing a game. Plus I think Wii Fit is just plain stupid.
Those are my personal opinions though. I still don't see the Wii as a competitor for 360 or ps3 as buying a Wii doesn't really make having a ps3 or a 360 redundent. Which there is much more redundency between ps3 and 360.Mainge, Regan21286, dolphan117 and 2 others like this. -

i don't disagree with any of that. I bought the Wii for Nintendo games. To this day the only games I own are Nintendo games. I love zelda, mario, mario kart, and smash. those are why i bought the system. (That and the backlog of virtual console stuff. And some of the Wiiware gems)
However the controls are getting better. Now that 3rd party developers are figuring the Wii out, some developers are actually making controls better for the Wii than the other two. Shaun White, for example, is better on the Wii than 360/ps3. I've heard the same about Star Wars Forced unleashed as well, although what you gain in control you lose in presentation, obviously. -

As for galaxy, your not alone. A lot of people feel that way. I absolutely love that game but a lot of people just don't. Have you played Super Paper Mario? It's definitely a more classic feel to mario. -
