Guess what I saw? A stack of about 15 wii’s (not display boxes, the real ones) just layint in a pile. No one even glancing at it. They didn’t even bother to put it behind the glass like they usually do.

Ummm..no....those are display boxes...
Did you read my post, weetard? obviously not
I did, you stupid twat. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that those were in fact display boxes. And considering how much the Wii is in demand, people would have been all over them. Simple logic.
On the contrary, whenever I go to Target, there are quite a few PS3 in the display cases, yet all the Wiis are sold out.
so, right now, the availability for the wii is up. its in 24% of stores. now, its only in half the stores the ps3 is in.
oh, and if the wii is so kiddy, why is a game that is described by ign as “one of the goriest, most violent franchises ever created” coming to it? its called manhunt 2. here are a couple paragraphs about the whole thing:
“It looks like all those Rockstar/Reggie talks paid off. Rockstar has announced Manhunt 2 for the Wii. Easily the biggest news of yesterday, and it will likely continue to be a major focal point from now until release. For all the Nintendo fans out there that are sick of hearing their friends complain about how Nintendo is kiddy, this game effectively kills that argument in one fell swoop.
Controversy follows Rockstar with every Mature title that they release, but Manhunt may be the most worthy of the angry complaints it received. The gamplay in Manhunt was far and beyond anything you would see in the GTA series. When I played the original on the PS2, I was taken aback by how brutally violent some of the scenes were. It gave you a very uneasy feeling while playing…which is a goal I believe Rockstar was reaching for."
Manhunt sounds like pwn in game format, but unless it is a first-party game I doubt it will relive the Wii of its “kiddy” image. I’m also a little concerned about down-graded graphics, however, RS has never been renown for its graphics, so that shouldn’t be a problem.

I have to agree

It is not a first party game, manhunt 2 is also coming to the PS2 and the PSP

if no one wants the wii, how come its outselling the ps3 almost 3 to one? people must HATE the ps3. also, it has had a much better launch then the 360 did, including the US.
wait, how do we know that your are the one telling the truth and weeman is lying? as i said above, the wii is in about 24% of stores across the US, so that puts you in the minority.

Mortis, out of sole curiosity, why do you hate the Wii?
I owned a gamecube and it sucked and the wii looks no different, gimmicky, crappy, kiddy cheap, worst gfx of the 3 and crappy online
Atresac wrote:
Is it just because of the “kiddy” games and image, or is there some other reason?
I believe I have already answered you
well at least you don’t judge it on nothing, I suppose it could be fairly compared to the GC, even with the new control format. Ah well, just wondering about that one, so yeah.

OMFG! are you serious? 360 launch MURDERED the wii launch

I gave weetard solid facts and then he just went and made up some untrue BS

Proove it
http://www.itrackr.com/home.aspx this is a sight that tracks the availability of products across the US. it is used so you can find hard to find items in your area (it tells you what stores are in stock.) one feature it has is 'national availability'. for the ps3, we have this: “National Availability: 57%". for the wii, it’s this: “National Availability: 24%".
as for the 360 vs wii, i don’t know where to find overall month by months, so lets just compare in the US, which is the 360’s stronghold (keep in mind, the wii destroyed the 360 in japan.) here is a chart of the sales so far with dates aligned from vgcharts.com.
as you can see, the wii has better numbers in the 360’s strong hold, the US.
but, how do we know your stuff is true and it is his stuff that is made up? it could easily be reversed.
Hey mortis did you ever think this though for just one moment. How can a video game console break a tv by itself? It cannot the only reason th etvs have been breaking is because there are idiots keyword IDIOTS who cannot even handle a simiple remote, there are stupid people in this world. Further more again with the it sucks for its kiddy games, the wii is getting many M rated games more then the GC it will even have its own RE exclusive.

I know that the wii itself did not break the TVs but the remotes did

What is your problem? You call everyone idiots who oppsoses the wii or makes it look bad! I bet you dont even have one friend who does not like the wii. And its not idioticy the reason why the wii players break the TVs, its from swinging and stuff.

Nope, like I said, no one wants that gimmicky system called the wii.

This is an obvious lie, either that or its the other way around.
-oh...I did.
-is that way Wii sold ~3 million more than PS3?
-same as above.
-no. It’s all true. I remember one time when I tried to get a wii, there were none, so I just started looking around, found myself in the PS3 aisle, looked into the case, and there were several PS3 boxes...and it’s funny you call this a lie when yours is obviously a lie.
You expect us to believe BB left more than a dozen Wiis just sitting there? Haha.
