wii devs: what if we just made the gamecube smallernintendo: hmmwii devs: and a bit fasternintendo: hrmmmmwii devs: and it can only do 480pnintendo: hmmmwii devs: what if, the controller has no analogue sticks, a single D-pad, three face buttons, a single back button, you can use it like a laser pointer to click things on screen, it has a really crappy speaker on it, you can plug a second smaller controller into it with an analogue stick, and some games force you to shake the wiimote like a monkey discovering coconuts for the first time in order to playnintendo: SHIP IT BAYBEEEEconsumers: I'LL TAKE ONE HUNDRED MILLION UNITS (MORE THAN THE 360 AND PS3 COMBINED) PLEASE

@lynnesbian to be fair the gamecube is 480i (although some gamecube games can be run at 480p on the wii interestingly)

@lynnesbian also, side note, the wii is about twice as powerful as the gamecube but they actually limit it when playing gamecube gamesyou can use homebrew software like Nintendont to run gamecube games in "wii mode" and the games will run a lot more smoothly, since the gamecube was largely past the era of games being broken by having more powerful hardware

@lynnesbian way to subtoot all of nnintendo like that. I think their focus on casual gaming totally saved that system from being a wii u, it was simple and the gimmick got a lot of people who didn't care about CPU speed or fidelity

@lynnesbian my parents (in their 50s & 60s now) still play their's, so they definitely cornered the casual market 😅

@lynnesbian ex-partner talked us into buying a Wii. We played it for a week. She played it for like 3 days. I should have broken up with her right there.

@Bisexuhell they were a mixed bag, wii sports bowling was great but shaking the remote in super mario galaxy was irritating

@lynnesbian I don’t know where you got your statistics. But didn’t the ps3 ship like 80 million units or something? That would mean that the 360 shipped less than 21 million units which sounds dubious to me 🤔.If this is a bit just ignore me and continue.

@lynnesbian this PR release states that the PS3 passed 80 million units in 2013 🤷🏻♀️: https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/playstation3-sales-reach-80-million-units-worldwide-230771611.htmlNever the less, it still sold more than its two main competitors which is fucking impressive.

@lynnesbian The shitty speaker was fun. I liked hearing meta knight say "fight me" through it in brawl
