@gamedude2009, dude, are you alright? Seriously you are trashing the PS Move with lousy comments, it may not look like it to you, but everyone else it does. As for your comment to Colonel-Snake, dude, you insulted people first, so you deserve to be insulted back. Who cares which one come out first, PS Move, and the Wii remote are not the same. Both motion controllors are different in terms of gameplay. Sony is not after the casual market. This is coming from a Nintendo fanboy.

lets see if ps move will sell 46,000 controllers a day

@Ex-DarkBlade: Did you even read my post? I specifically said I'm not thrashing it. @Colonel-Snake: The bottom line is, Wii came out before Move. Besides, who even cares? It's a video game, and if people can't realize that, then they don't need to stress out other people by bashing everything. I'm simply speaking my mind, and if I can't go on GS without people insulting me, then you guys are just being rude. And again... it's a game, not salvation.

It is impressive but you can't deny that Nintendo is trying to sell it's last wave before Move and Kinect have a good library of games by releasing new colors and new bundles all the time to just get the last money out of it (remember Nintendo's strategy with the gameboy). People whom are buying it now will only have only a year lifespan before the gamers realize what HD graphics is. People who have bought Wii back at launch date have gotten their investment really good out of it. Nonetheless Wii will be the best console out there for a while. People are slowly moving to HD consoles now. Thanks Nintendo for raising the bar.

@bezerk114 uhh in 4 years the Wii could of gotten the new high tech stuff too and thus being ahead of the game but they didnt

$261,000,000 on Wii Remotes alone. If they're selling 46,000 of these products each day, that's $1,600,000 a day; that's just insane.

Come on now Lady's you don't need a Wiimote when you got me right here!

I would like to know how many get thrown at TVs each day.

Pretty amazing. Long live the Wii!

I decided to do a little Facebook poll, only 2 people answered but then again I only have 23 friends on there lol. Turns out that they are still using their Wii's. The problem is that they aren't buying anything new! Guitar Hero seems to be the most popular play, followed by bowling. My 2 other mates just bought Just Dance 2 though.... that's about it. I bought Red Steel 2 though and I do plan on picking up No More Heroes 2, followed by Goldeneye, The Conduit 2, Donkey Kong, Other M, Epic Yarn, Epic Micky, Sin and Punishment 2 and Trauma Team. I've gone right off Nintendo's first party stuff though (second party stuff is ok though).

Thats 46 thousand people a day that plug in a wii for the first time and then ask themselves, what do I do now?

stop trolling saying how PS move is better of course it is it came out 4 year after the wii four years of advance technology.your not going to troll about how much better the 360 is than Nintendo 64

And how many are collecting dust since the casual players got tired of Wii Bowling? The Wii may sell a lot of hardware, but not that many games.

& i wonder how many ps move sony is gonna sell more than wii remotes

The Wii Pink controller looks gorgeous!

@gamedude2009 It's really not as accurate as some people say. I've got a few friends that own the move, and all of them have troubles with getting it to read the motions properly. It's about the same as the Wiimote without motion+

@Slyster1181 You got it wrong, the Wii is made by Nintendo, not Microsoft. Nintendo means no fail rate.

So, does that mean the wrist straps don't work? How much on TV repair?

@Slyster1181 Omg I was thinking the same damn thing! Those things break like recess!

so?

that number wouldn't be so big if my brother's head wasn't so damn hard

Thats because 46,000 Wii motes are broken everyday :).

wii became more popular every day i was against wii because they did nto upgrdaed graphuc engine but when i played some games i was sucked, so i'l buy wii also :D

That is a lot of controllers.

@ BirgitteSilver Sony released the Move to copy the Wii's success. Hence, Move is an attempt to copy. Simple.

"I can't believe people are trying to say Move is not a copy of the Wiimote." Sony demoed the same tech in 2004, before the Wii-mote was ever even thought of. The only reason they didn't release it at the time is it was WAY too inaccurate in Sony's estimation. People who believe the Move ripped off the Wii-mote are completely uninformed. It may have been released because of the Wii-mote's success, but it's not a ripoff of it.

ich, wiimotes....ich, motion controls. all i ever want is a regular control. that said, i find this stat disturbing

I can't believe people are trying to say Move is not a copy of the Wiimote.

All the soccer moms who own these consoles will be happy to hear that.

For all the people who taked about the design of the wiimote. Doesn't it hurt?

wow. that's just a crazy stat lol. at least we know gaming is definitely bigger in the US than it used to be

that's amazing

Good to hear. Nintendo is a great company, I've never had any beef with them. They're also pretty much the main innovators of the game industry at the moment, I look forward to see where they'll take gaming in the future.

MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Seems like Nintendo is rebounding from any losses they had during the N64-GCN era.

Couples are having more babies these days

Yeah, fanboys are outta control. They don't know the truth from the lies they tell themselves.

I am a Nintendo fanboy, and it is funny that many Nintendo fanboys that thumbed me down today. Whatever, I thougth the same thing about the PS Move until Sony showed it off.

because they break easily... i wait fir the built in Mplus and get a nunchck with it for ZELDA skyward sword

Niiiiintendo, woo-hoo!

Thats a whole lot of Wii-motes!

@Colonel-Snake, ok. Enjoy your day, and sorry if I wasted your time.

@EX-DarkBlade Yes, but most of them aren't fanboys. We just have different ways of thinking.

@Colonel-Snake, I always see you agrue with people, and I agree on your way of thinking.

That sure is a lot sold.

@Ex-DarkBlade Barely Ever. I tend to argue with people when we have different points of views about things. I really don't wanna waste my time arguing with fanboys for 2 reasons. 1. They are stupid and 2. They can't be reasoned with and they believe their was of thinking is the right way so its a waste of time.

@gamedude2009 Really ? This youtube video shows that Move was showcased in 2004 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbSzmRt7HhQ So really this make your whole post sounds like nothing but nonsense. Clearly this shows Sony been doing its own Motion Controls BEFORE THE Wii was even announced. So who copied who ?

@gamedude2009, yes it was brought up by a PS fanboy. Dude, I am a Nintendo fanboy, but I don't get it why people are trashing the PS Move like you. The PS Move is not a copy of the Wii remote. I never played it my myself, but I have seen the demos, it is not like the Wii remote at all.
