I would like to know about these arcade games because in the over 20 years I have seen arcade games evolve I can maybe count such machines with one hand (not counting racing games that use three screens for panoramic effect... totally different than what the DS does). Hardly a standard. |

| reply to JohnnyG101 ummm no, like 9/10 who bought a PS3 turned around and put it on Ebay. People who bought the Wii bought it to put it in their homes. The resale value on the Wii isn't high enough to warrant flipping it for much of markup.
You are obviously a nintendo hater, and you obviously have not played one yet.
Nintendo will sell every single one of the Wii's they produce this x-mas and I predict you will have to eat your words. |

| reply to JohnnyG101 They said teh nintendo DS was a fad also with thier new style gaming (dual screens and touch screen) and it is still selling like gang busters. I seriously doubt the wii is a fad. and selling 1 million consoles in the first day and remaining sold it is no way a fad. The n-gage was a fad wii is not a fad. |
