#8 Fear not, I buy plenty of games. I have yet to go through a thursday "Village Check" without buying something. They know me as someone who knows games and buys games.

#9 I have read this over several times and I am still not wuite sure what you are asking. "old reliable" was sold as a new console (because it had never been opened/played). If the guy who bought it wants to sell it back to Hiro he will get the price of a used console (because it is now used). But Hiro is under no obligation to buy it back if he does not want to.


And to those asking, YES, the Wii is supply constrained.

You have answered my question (the bolded part answered my question).

But yeah, about the avatar. I still think it's funny, but it seems people are starting to associate me more because of Anihawk's gif than anything else :(
Maybe I'll go back to my other avatar.




Maybe.

At this rate, assuming sales stay constant, it'll take another 15 weeks for the PS3 to surpass 1,000,000 LTD. And, assuming sales stay constant, the Wii will have a LTD of over 3.2m at that same time.

:O :lol at PS3 sales. Nothin else to say about the DS and Wii that hasnt been said before....giggitygiggitygiggitygiggitygiggity.
 
I'm starting a new train: Final Fantasy Crisis Core to Wii before the end of the year.
Please don't ban me for this
. I just don't think any dev can responsiblty deny the profit potential of porting all remaining/existing/coming PSP/PS2 games at this point.

The following is the multiple of how many times the Wii has sold over the PS3 starting with its first weekend. You'll notice that the PS3 actually gained on the Wii in this perspective from last week. ;)

Speaking of Moku, I'm surprised he hasn't chimed in yet with his conspiracy theory with a certain game.

Well the way things are going I wouldn't be surprised if it came true.i

The Moku train is locked in Dragona's garage.

Dragona made it a bannable offense a few MCs ago.

Let's be clear.

It isn't the discussion that's banned, it's the idiotic "train" meme without any actual merit that is.

If you want to discuss and back up your points why the mainline FFXIII is going to make an appearance on a non-PS3 platform, that'd be great.

I'm not convinced that FFXIII is going to end up on the Wii at this point, but I'm having a hard time seeing how they won't at the very least make a 360 version. Keeping FFXIII on the PS3 exclusively would probably be SquareEnix's biggest financial blunder since that terrible movie. A 360 version would certainly sell well in the West.

I guess the biggest question in my mind is how desperate SE is to keep people in Japan buying the series. Maybe they'll split the franchise, so to speak, with a more traditional, turn-based FF on the Wii for Japan, and the big cinematic FFXIII on PS3/360 for the west.

PS3 didn't even crack 9k. Quite a few people at Sony are shitting bricks. Jagged, razor sharp bricks.

I think when a brick is sharp and jagged its called a ninja shuriken. And shitting one hurts. A lot. Trust me.

Okay, I'm calling it in Japan. I have been hesitant, but with the Wii actually going up in sales with nothing coming out in Japan, It's now painfully obvious that its supply constrained.

I will go as far to state here and now that if this continues at this pace, and gets even worse for Sony, (This is my own personal opinion) that the up-coming FF game will, without a doubt be ported to the Wii within short order, or all-together moved to the Wii that may sound bold, and it may even sound ridiculous given the already extended dev time, but its not due to launch anytime soon, and S-E would be flat-out reatrded, and throwing hordes of cash/sales down the toilet by not going with the Wii on this one. You cannot send out a premiere title to die in the forest, and porting it to the 360 wont help matters either.

Japan is a lost cuase for Sony at this point. The trend is almost identical for that of the DS/PSP when the DS took off. I just cannot see how S-E would throw piles of money, and copies sold down the toilet. It's not even about moneyhas either. If a small % of people actully buy the game, as opposed to other FF games, you could actually hurt the luster of the series by having such low sales.

There I said it, and I am going to stick with it.
 
PSP and PS2 keeping consistent numbers. It's just surprising that the DS and Wii experienced such a huge drop yet the PSP and PS2 remained about flat.

About 4 Media-Create Threads back, a big discussion arose about the future of FF13 (like every media-create thread), moku stated boldly that he was getting on the FF13 for Wii train, people followed, the "FF13 for Wii Train" meme got so popular in the thread that Dragona (i think) banned moku, his train, its passengers and the very mention of it.
 
I wonder if Sony is really worried? Let's face it they know better than us what their long term plans for the PS3 are. They want to support it for over 10 years. Second I still think things can change with a few prices cuts and some kickass games.

I would really like to know what Sony is thinking about all this right now
