oh. "when they launched."

well, dreamcast was the most powerful when it launched, and 360 was the most powerful when it launched.

'more powerful' doesnt really mean anything to billy everyman.

@mr nimblewick, i never said Wii is a fad. way to put words in my mouth.

@Jody, notice i used the word "mainly", not "100% because of this reason".

Curmeo is safe as long as he makes up his stupid fucking "exceptions." Whenever he is wrong about something, it's an exception to his INFALLIBLE logic.

yeah, but they didn't hold on to the title of "most powerful" but for a year, each.

I think Wii will have a very hard time beating 118+ million, but I think its possible. PS2 wasn't "future proof" at all.

I'm putting wii at 65-70 million worldwide. i dont think any console is ever going to surpass the ps2. unless there is a 'one console future'

if PS2 wasnt future proof, it would stick with CD-ROM, would have PS1-level graphics/performance, and wouldnt have an online service among other things.

God, the stupidity of this statement just boggles my mind. So it has to have a new experimental storage format and graphics that ROXXORYOURSOXXOR to be "future proof".

You're drinking way to much Sony kool-aid. Let me give you a hint, PS3 isn't future-proof either. Actually, from the way sony keeps "Upgrading" it, it wasn't "present proof" either. It was obsolete 6 months after launch, because a newer, better PS3 just hit the market.

Future proof... I hope sony poisons that kool-aid soon, and rids of the Sony Fanboy stupidity.

I think whoever invented the word "future proof" needs to be slapped in the balls by a circus clown.

"You are calling wii fit one of the big three?"

For the casuals? Hell yeah.

As for third parties, I'll cut them some slack for being late to the Wii, since everyone was initially betting on the XBox 360 and/or PS3 in this generation. But if they keep tossing half-baked shovelware on the Wii instead of polished, quality titles soon, I'll take my money elsewhere and LMAO when they declare losses and bankruptcy.

I'm sure they can re-outfit the Gamecube with a Wiimote and sell it for $250. People would buy it. Stupid is as stupid does.

63% of what market?? The PS2 must still have by far the biggest market share.. and the 360 has still sold more units overall (just) (for now).

It might be 63% of next-gen software sales.. but i'd probably imagine 360 owners buy more games than wii owners.

What the heck, i'm a nintendo fanboy so i'm happy.. i just don't understand how the numbers add up...

Uhh.. European gamers don't get Metroid Prime 3 until October. So I'm afraid I can't join you for that "refreshing" glass of Metroid. Not that I would anyway, I don't like Metroid Prime games. =/
