Media market analyst Screen Digest predicts that in the console wars, Nintendo will win 2007 "convincingly," with a nod to "the market climate [changing] significantly" in 2008.
What changes (or starts to) in approximately 15 days? "Whereas in 2007 Nintendo has succeeded in expanding the appeal of the Wii to different consumers, including more females and older consumers to drive adoption, Sony's pipeline of exclusive content and the launch of multi-media services may result in a significant uplift for the PlayStation 3 in 2008," said Screen Digest's senior games analyst Piers Harding-Rolls.
Matt Peckham of pcworld disagrees:
"I've said it before, I'll say it again: Don't hitch your horse to the hardware only. Microsoft's beating the snot out of Sony and Nintendo in software sales and keeping apace, relatively speaking, with Nintendo in U.S. console unit sales. Software, software, software. I can't say that enough. If you sell a bazillion consoles and snap up a bazillion developers but only sell the same one or two games in volume, you're essentially sitting on an extremely popular paperweight."

The problem the Wii has it's not a real next-gen console and so not everyone includes in the race. I mean, it doesn't even have a DVD player, so it's hardly last-gen lol I guess you do have your very well implemented motion controllers and that is sort of next gen? I also don't believe any of the 'hard core' gamers will choose a Wii over an 360/PS3 as their preferred system.
I think it's easy to say that 2007 was the year of the Wii in terms of sales, and it isn't exactly showing signs of slowing down so I don't see why it wont do the same in 2008. But it wont get the recognition since it's not part of the console war in some peoples eyes...
The Wii is a garbage console with garbage games, it has no future
but you have to admit that the ps3 and xbox are far supierior when it comes to graphics and games. The wii has some good games too, but they far from next gen. The wii makes a great substitute when you wanna take a break from the ps3 or xbox cause of the innovation,, it makes you feel like you are actually playing something other than a lame system. Its really fun, and thats what matters,, the sad thing is that everyone is buying this over the ps3, i could see people who own a wii finally figuring out they arent getting their moneys worth and buy a ps3 for 50 bucks more,, (if you have a sony card, or a 20 gig from toys r us). You get more for your buck if you go sony all the way,, like the man said above,, it doesnt even play dvd's,, and not to mention no voice chat,, that right is the main reason to go online, talking to your friends makes it double the fun,,, i think they know that though, honeslty though, its a piece of crap compared to the real next gen systems. Also, i think another reason why everyone doesnt buy the ps3 or xbox is cause, most of america cant afford the ps3. Its not that its a prefered choice, but its a great gift, and its way cheaper then the other ones, right? lol, I bet if people stop buying drugs and cheap hookers more people would be buyin a ps3.
Most Wii owners knows that their consoles' graphics are not as good as the ps3 or the Xbox 360 and they don't care. They believe gesture controls are far more immersing than high definition graphics, which, to most people, is not that important as Wii graphics are good enough to most purposes.
As surprising as it may seem, hardcore gamers are only a minority portion of the gamers. Even so, I know a few that freed themselves from the graphic centric view and now admits that some games with poor graphics are actually good.
to me its plain and simple...if you're a sony fanboys that like to diss every other system cause they are crushing your system in sells. you're in for more disappointment..as the wii will sell even better in 08 with better and bigger games.
