Just because something sells doesn't make it successful. Something is successful when it benefits people and the gaming industry. What has the Wii done? Make people get healthy? Nah, it hasn't done that. Deliver great games? Nah, it hasn't done that with the exception of maybe 1 or 2 games... Offer continuous replay value? Nah, it hasn't done that. The SNES is a great example of how much a console can offer and deliver for its time. Even up to and after the release of the N64, many, many people played their SNES's.
I remember someone saying that the Wii would be so awesome to play games on. Well, unless it provided an actual good controller for games, I wouldn't even be able to play them on. Have you ever typed on the Wii? The accuracy of the controllers are extremely horrid. That's why they don't use motion controlling for games like the Super Smash Brothers: It simply doesn't work on that console. And guess what, even then, many, many people plug in the Gamecube controller to play Smash because the controllers are not comfortable. This just goes to show that the console is all-around terrible. Graphics aren't up to par, low amount of at least decent games, poor accuracy/hardware, quantity of hardware purchases needed to play different games is through the roof, interface devices are all oddly shaped, the console lacks any actual features... The plus-side of it? It has games that are not games at all and are exercise tutors? Is that a successful accomplishment? Nah, the Wii sucks and hopefully Nintendo will learn. I'm a Nintendo fanboy and I hate the Wii and DS.
