Default Nintendo Wii, Slowly But Surely

I checked the sale numbers this morning, and they stand as follows:

360 - 11,290,231

Wii - 10,494,525


When do you think the Wii will bypass the 360? Do you think it can be done in less than 1 year of sales (November 19th, if I'm remembering correctly)...

I don't mean to start another fanboy fight, but, I'm looking at these numbers, and accepting what I'm seeing. :P

Well I definitely see the Wii passing them after the holidays, but I don't think they can pass them by November 19th. But hey, it's possible.

Popular =/= good.

Example? Naruto: it's popular, but suck major ***.

Naw, it's all based on opinion. I believe some people bash things like Naruto and WoW just because they are so popular, and such a large success.

But on topic... I can't believe the wii is going to bypass the 360... many more of my friends have 360's compared to friends with wii's.

So, if your favorite band suddenly became the number one single in the US, and didn't change their style and sell out or whatever, they'd not be good? Thats what I'm gathering from that.

All the systems started out with zero sales, it was an equal race...(or, it COULD have been, had they made more of em at launch)

I dont agree that the reason of people bashing Naruto or WoW.

Being popular doesn't prove that "thing" is good.

WoW is a good game, i can acknowledge that but WoW is simply a MMORPG with all the "most-wanted" features for MMORPG are packed up together.

Naruto is simply DBZ with ninjas. However, it feeds the blood thirst of the general population. ( Blood!! ) then it as all kind of tricks that weren't originated from japanese "ninja" culture.

All in all, they just pakced up a lots of stuff together. However, most of those fans that play WoW or watch Naruto have no idea there's "more" out there.

Example, there's a lots of chinese, a lot's of korean and certainly a lots of japanese games that bigger and better than WoW. Simply, they haven't translated those games.

I can name a whole list of animes that are better in graphic, in plot and in actions than Naruto.

That's totally opinion-wise.
