The Top 5 Reasons The Wii Will Lose The Console War
I recently wrote an article this morning that went over the top 5 reasons the Wii will win the console war. Now I am offering the reverse view to that. The top 5 reasons the Wii will lose the console war. Enjoy.
#5) Nick And Disney (appeal)
I really do not think that selling games like "Hannah Montanna" or "Drake and Josh" will be very key in winning the console war. You can have all of the great first party games in the world, but if your pumping out Nick and Disney 3rd party games then the odds are you will lose the console war.
#4) Bad Online Play
A popular feature for game consoles these days is online capability. The Wii really does not offer much in the way of this. Of course you can vote in poles or give away your Mii's, but the online gameplay has scored the lowest rating out of all the next generation consoles. Online play is becoming almost a necessity in the console wars, the Wii will lose if it does not improve in this category.
#3) Graphic Capability
The Wii offers next generation gaming on last generations technology. The graphics of the Wii are less than stellar and are no where near the other two consoles (The PS3 and The XBOX360). Graphics may not make the game better but they sure as hell do make it a better experience.
#2) Lack Of 3rd Party Support
We all have began to anticipate games like GTA IV and it is sure to sell well. The Wii on the other hand offers no games like this, and the only thing they really have to offer is the first party games. Sure the Wii offers games like Guitar Hero, but that gets old quick.
#1) Controls
The one thing that makes the Wii so revolutionary could be its own downfall. The Wii has very wierd controls for a lot of its games, and you can expect to have to make an adjustment from previous consoles when you buy it. The Wii offers the risk of buying a game with really bad controls where as other consoles offer a similarity to past generations. People like familiarity.
