That is what they both thought coming into this gen. Wacky little controller, weak graphics, niche console, limited market to Nintendo fans.
Worldwide sales figures (from Wiki)
Wii – 94.97 million as of 31 December 2011
Xbox 360 – 57.6 million as of 4 November 2011
PlayStation 3 – 56 million as of 2 November 2011
360 needed the Kinect to make a resurgence in sales and Sony also copied with the Move. That said Wii still has a untouchable lead. They will be the first to the market with a tablet style controller, rumors are MS is looking at a similar controller. I seem to recall something about history, repeating something or another.
Sure, why would anyone be threatened by a company with hardware sales almost double the 360/PS3?
