I wonder if you felt this way before the Wii launched?
didn't nearly half or more so of the core gamers predict the wii to be a massive failure?

Pretty much everything this gen has been predicted to be a massive failure.

There's always one half saying it's good, one half saying it's bad.

and then another half that trolls.

150%

Obviously.

I predicted it would come third, but not be a massive failure. I was genuinely excited about it before it released.

Does my post history go back to my first posts?

Well then your thoughts are irrelevant really. If your posting from the heights of fanboyism then no one wants to hear your shit.

Give an ACTUAL reason why you believe it will flop, as opposed to "It's not Nintendo doing it lol".

Name ONE thing Microsoft has GENUINELY pushed and advertised hard that's failed*.

*Keep regions in mind here. In Australia, NOTHING MS has advertised has performed poorly.

360 Console - Successful
Halo - kicked ass
Gears of War - kicked ass

That's pretty much all MS has advertised HARD, and all 3 have been successful worldwide (bar stupid Japan which barely counts considering how weird they are).

Natal will be pushed as basically a new console. I don't see it being a flop. It won't be as big as the Wii obviously, but with a MASSIVE marketing push and the 50 pound/99.95AU/~70USD price range tey're going for, it's going to do VERY well for them.

Can guarantee you now it won't 'flop'. But then again, what's your measure of flop?

They really haven't showed any games for it so its hard to judge how well it will do.

nearly all old posts were deleted

and Chibi doesn't remember anyone saying anything good abouut the wii except Ninthings, sheep, wii-tards, etc.

although this is also becuase anyone who said anything good about the Wii at the time was called one of those so....


this forum needs more blind fans

like Dark nemesis

and some PSPgo supporters

then we could have more fun debates

Mid console lifespan add-on peripheral. Name one that has ever had substantial support after it launches.

I have a sega CD, it's great. It's the only system that allows you to kill real people.
