artificial Wii shortage

Name: Anonymous 2007-04-13 17:21 ID:ex4ghAKs

This a prediction of what things will be like if nintendo created a monopoly

I'm someone who has no interest in any of the 3 new consoles mind you. And I don't own any.

But the Wii is a piece of shit. Nintendo is milking this thing as far as it can go. They know if too many people had it, they'd get tired of it.

The whole selling point is to bullshit people with the illusion that there is something to get excited over.

Everytime I go into a game store, I'm only there for a very short time, possibly about 20 minutes inside the store. That's like what... 1/48th of my waking hours? (because I'm only awake like 16 hours duh.

And every single time, I see someone asking if they have a wii in stock. And they never do.

This shit is funny because people actually want this piece of shit system but it's also sad because this is the future if we have a monopoly, or much much worse.

Videogames are a joke these days.

Yep, everyone who owns one hates it but people just keep buying it anyways!

How the hell is there going to be a monopoly. You're lack of logic to justify this so-called prediction only further proves you fail at life.

Onto the Wii itself:
Have you ever played anything on the console? What makes it a piece of shit? How about you explain your fucktard opinion with, oh I don't know, some details. Nintendo stepped away from the "Look at the pretty colors" mentality of console gaming and went with something that's almost "retro" now: fun, addicting gameplay. How novel! The Wii-mote is amazing. The innovative thinker who conceived this should be rewarded with Osama's 70-some-odd virgins in his afterlife of choice. This should change the way console are made, and games are played. It's a shame it won't, though.

I understand there are a gay man's assload of games for the console, but the games that out for the console, that are worth playing, are incredible. Hell, they're worth cruise control. INCREDIBLE! Wii Sports never gets old. I don't know how Nintendo pulled that off. It has 5 sports to play, but they never get old. Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princes was, and still is, epic. Like, 'THIS IS SPARTAAAA' epic.

I'm tired of your fucking thread, and your "I just crawled out of a shit-hole of an existence" ideas. I'm done here

Hello idiot

It's a simulation of what nintnedo would do if they had a monopoly of the industry.

Because at the moment, not many people want to buy a ps3.

So nintendo can do whatever they want with the Wii, it's a completely open market for them to do so.

You sound like a gamefaqs faggot anyways, so gtfo

Did you make similar comments last generation, when the PS2 was way the fuck ahead of both competitors? Sony thought they had the market in a stranglehold and fucked up beyond belief with the PS3 - and instead of everyone just putting up with it like they apparently would in your fantasy world, they bought the alternatives! Wow! Who the fuck would have guessed that would happen. Secondly - and this may come as a shock to you - there is a THIRD COMPETITOR in the market right now, who has still sold more units than Sony and Nintendo put together! (Hint: It starts with Micro and ends with soft.)

Wii > PS3

The wii had over 300,000 more units sold, than the PS3.
I think the numbers were Wii, 1,800,000; PS3, 1,500,000.

xbox 360 I say is a clone of ps3 except xbox 360 is cheaper. in my opinion thats the only difference. Wii is still > both of them because it's innovative JUST LIKE THE DS. why do you think ds killed the psp? So heres how the ladder goes. 1st. WII. 2nd. XBOX360 3rd. PS3.

Wii is only like what, $210 dollars now? ps3 is like $600..On top of that their games are around $60.

Who the fuck cares if a system is fucking innovative? As long as it's fun? No fucking way did the DS beat the PSP cause of innovation, it's because it had good games that broadened it's market...

Jesus idiots like you fucking ruin these boards...

Name: Dawgas 2007-04-15 17:59 ID:yGVDeP3p

But with the power of the "innovation" it is eaiser to make good games because it has never been seen before, because of the different control scheme.

good games are fun amirite?

Surely you're joking about the 360 being a clone of the PS3, unless, ya' know, you're unfortunate clone happens to be over a year older than you.

Anyway, the price of the Wii sets it up above the other 2 "next-gen" consoles. Though, unless more games come out for the Wii there will soon be a decline in demand for the console. Enough speculation, I'm off to go play some Wii tennis.

Nintendo sells more Wii consoles worldwide than the Xbox 360 and PS3 combined. Unlike the Xbox 360 and the PS3, Nintendo makes a profit on every console that is sold. Nintendo would be seriously stupid to not cash into the Wii.  They are practically printing money for each Wii they sell. The only reasonable explanation for not fulfilling demand is that they underestimated the demand. The public has spoken, and the public demands the Nintendo Wii.

He said Nintendo could create a monopoly. That doesn't happen without people buying their fucking products. If they somehow kill Microsoft and Sony - two of the biggest companies in the world - and have a "monopoly" for the next generation, then either their console will be reasonably good or they'll get new competitors.

Sage for having to explain things to a fucking middle school student.

Does anyone honestly expect Wii to have worthwhile games other than marios and zeldas or smash bros?

Seriously, it's cube all over again.

I'm not saying the 360 or ps3 are any better. But the wii sucks a ducks dick and most people are too stupid to see this.

This always happens with a lot of popular things lol.

Well you can't really say they all suck. I mean it's only been 5 years since gamecube and etc were released. How much of an improvement were you expecting? fucking virtual reality or some shit? I think Wii is about changing the way you play games as their memo. PS3 is just being cool and having liquid fast graphics..and xbox360 is just a upgrade version for xbox live whores who are halo-tards. I don't own any of the systems neither and I probably won't be buying any. Why? Because I'm beginning to think I'm growing too old for consoles anymore. I'd prefer a handheld like psp where you can put classics and etc on it. See this is with today's generation. They don;t appreciate anything. They get whatever they want, the clothes they want almost instantly.

>>39

Uh, yea we are all entitled to our own opinions. You know that people playing these consoles aren't ALL adults right? So basically it's like your telling some 6 year old Wii sucks balls and they are too stupid to see it. Like wtf does that matter? If you are enjoying yourself and having a damn good time then any console/game on console is good in my belief.

It's amazing how much of a failure the Wii is. It is such a failure that every single age group wants to play games with one. It is such a failure that shops are having a hard time keeping up with demand for it. It is such a failure that Nintendo is actually making money from each console sold. All these people worldwide are idiots for wanting to play something as failed as the Wii.
