Thought I'd dedicate this share of information to you, you should be very proud.

Oh trust me, I've heard a lot of excuses coming from the Xbox Fanboys to explain the phenomon.
Starting at, "Oh the stores are just throwing away the Wiis"
Truthfully, I'm surprised that this was possible because people must continuously rebuy another Xbox because of their defectiveness.
So, good job Nintendo-Dogs! :D
-
WOAO!!! the Wii passes sales to the Xbox 360 Worldwide!! Impressive Nintendo!
well that maybe becuse all of the faulty Xbox 360 (actually all of them)
-
Outstanding! I would feel better if I were still a Nintendo fanboy. .__.
-
Now lets jsut wait when Metroid Prime 3 comes out next week
-
lol that'll really jack up the sales...
wow PS3 sucks retailer-wise...4.3 mil compared to 10.5+ mil...ouch on sony.
But if they make an FF7 remake I'll probably buy one if I have the money after college tuitions...and after I get myself a wii and ssbb...and...and...
-
Nintendo-Metroid Prime 3
Xbox- Halo 3, Bioshock, COD4 Modern Warfare, Stranglehold
Yeah lets see if this stays.

Actually, people aren't giving it enough credit.
That's some good sales considering the lack of games and high price.
Nintendo-Metroid Prime 3
Xbox- Halo 3, Bioshock, COD4 Modern Warfare, Stranglehold
Yeah lets see if this stays.
Call of Duty 4 is also for the PS3.
And yeah, Wii sales will probably continue.
Wii hasn't even been out for a year.

Nintendo-Metroid Prime 3
Xbox- Halo 3, Bioshock, COD4 Modern Warfare, Stranglehold

.....
the difference is that the 360 has been out allot longer then the wii
-
true...at the rate the wii's catching on (assuming it steadily rises or just barely shallows) it'll surpass the xbox by wuite a bit more. Xbox got where it is after...how many years? Wii practically just came out and it's already up there...
Go nintendo!

The Wii's sales momentum is amazing,

Bioshock is also for the PC, so is CoD4, and I think Stranglehold is too, so that's nothing special for the 360.

Agreed

Agreed
I totally forgot about most of those! :o
One thing that pisses me off is that skeptics say the Wii is just a fad, but if we do get sick of motion censor controls (Which I doubt we will), people forget that every Wii game doesn't need motion censor controls.
Also, Nintendo is more than it's cracked up to be as the weakest systems:
The N64 was stronger than the PS1, and (believe it or not!) the GC was actually stronger than the PS2. (Which is a commonly known thing outside of the Sony fanboy's heads)
Plus, the GC was equal to the Xbox. (Maybe a tad weaker, though)

*Clears throat*
Fuck Nintendo.

I originally wanted a Wii, and after two months of looking for one I gave up and got a 360. : \ I'm glad I did get it, but I would like a Wii, cause the 360 is for when I don't feel like standing for a game and the 360 is going to have RE5, that was enough.

I wasn't saying like "The Wii sucks, 360 is better."
I really was just saying that I like the 360 because the games are fun and the graphics are good, they don't have you standing and swinging around (Oh, but that makes people fat or you don't have fun sitting there playing on a couch.) Then why has Nintendo owned the market since the beginning, people sitting on a couch playing Mario for 2, 3 generations? Nintendo is still winning, but it you are way too blind to see that they can't possible stay on top forever, even they slip for a generation of consoles or not, then you should take a step back and actually look at the gaming industry. People fight over what console is better with an almost zealous personality. "Oh, this has 43560 billion pixles, and what does YOURS have?" or "My games are funner then yours!" What would someone say to a person that has all of the systems? If I had a Wii, I knew I wouldn't play it that much, the games are very fun and innovative, the smartest on the market right now. Nintendo has some of the best developers out there, they make games so impressive, but Microsoft has some of the best programmers, making them look incredibly realistic and powerful.
Nintendo
Good: Ingenuous games, they appeal to the widest market and sell more consoles.
O.K: They still dominate the handheld market, as small it may be now.
Bad: The Wiimote isn't very great on most games, and some of the games are trying too hard to be totally fun, making most of them very short.
Sony
Bad: Everything
Microsoft
Good: Fun games people can spend alot of time on, best looking graphics and the hardest working console.
O.K: Their Live Market costs a bit more than it should, having everyone pay to play any online games is kind of ridiculous.
Bad: Constant hardware failures and Microsofts inability or caring to help is ruining the company.
-
Uhh...I was sorta just listing the games that haven't come out yet.
I wasn't bashing the 360, just saying the Wii has a better game lineup than the 360 (and PS3).

You prefer graphics over gameplay? :P
Bad: The Wiimote isn't very great on most games, and some of the games are trying too hard to be totally fun, making most of them very short.
I can sorta agree with that, I've played some games with controls that don't work too well, we need more Retro Studios, Segas, and, well, of course, Nintendo. (By that, I mean, people need to learn off them, and improve the controls)
Geometry Wars for the Wii is a new game, it's not a Wiimake.

Yeeesshh.. but it was on the 360 first.

Venom your a faggot.
To me, you sound like the biggest fanboy here, so I suggest you be quiet.

I have to agree on that one.

You guys are only proving my point, here...

I was at EB games today, and a gamer girl (actually knew what she was doing, and was good looking), asked for a Wii, and they are STILL sold out. I inquired about this, and the clerks told me that they still get regular shipments, and the last one was sold out within the hour. Bravo Wii, fucking bravo. Blowing away all my expectations of you, and I had high ones of you.
