Well,they still have plenty of time to fix the 1 big problem (stupid story mode) with it.

 

Besides, there aren't any WWE games planned for any other consoles this year with RAW getting delayed on the XBox. Of course theres Def Jam Vendetta, Legends of Wrestling 3 and that Backyard Wrestling game coming out, so that probably doesnt matter much.

The SNES controllers were the best (other than the color scheme), which is why Sony ripped off the basic design for the PSX, and why the PS2 has the best controllers now. The GC controller is a'ight.

 

The X-box controller is just a monstrosity.

I love my PS2. As a guy who plays RPGs more than anything else, Sony remains the only ticket in town, just as it has for the past 6 years.

I'm in the same boat as you.

Third, of the top 10 best selling games of Febuary, 9 were PS2 games and 1 was a GBA game. No GameCube and X-Box games were even close.

And the reason for that is because there are more PS2s in homes than Cubes or X Boxes. I'm curious about how well software is selling compared to hardware sales... I'm sure there are games that are selling worse, but are in a bigger percentage of homes of people who own X Boxes or Cube.

 

Hell, the #7 game was "Yu-Gi-Oh! Dungeon Dice" and that wouldn't have been up there if it wasn't for the huge number of GBA that have been sold. Software sales drop after the initial release, and it's harder for GCN and X Box games to stay up there since their user base is so much smaller.

 

I'm sure Wind Waker will debute pretty damn high it's first week, and then it will quickly drop as anybody who wants the game will of picked it up right away. The people that get a cube to play WW after it's release wont be enough to make a dent in the sales charts.

I heard somewhere that Microsoft now loses money on every X-box sold (though that's of course misleading, since they lose more if it doesn't sell) because they didn't really know how to design a console, i.e. they took a bunch of gorgeous components and threw them together, making a great machine that costed them a shitload of money, figuring they'd clean up in game sales.
