Yeah, this is why I don't understand why this generation of consoles have lasted so long. It's gotten to the stage where lots of people own at least one of the three main consoles so their profits on consoles have dropped dramatically.

I'm still waiting for the PS3 to drop in price more. It's not worth the price of admission when I'm only gunna get a few games for it. Even less so for the 360, there's 0 games I want for that...

Maybe if Microsoft had some big-name non-FPS games on their console, it would sell more.



But that's besides the Nintendo point. Pretty much everyone has a Wii, so they can't sell anymore. I'm expecting Wii 2 at the next E3.

It is still quite special that Nintendo manages to make some profit from selling Wiis. Microsoft and Sony don't make money from selling consoles.

Of course Nintendo still suffers from a rather meager supply of games due to lack of third party support.

I got a PS3 Slim for half a dozen games. Well worth the price of admission if you ask me.

Didn't like everyone in the world buy a wii when it came out and started to decrease prices and add more s*** to it like games and controllers and stuff?

Called this one from two years away. I knew normal people wouldn't keep shelling out for s*** on games. This is why they targeted the gamer audience before. They keep buying.
