Who’s on top?
We do have a very overcrowded market of games in our time and age. It’s hard to see who is the best and who will remain the best in the years to come. I have come to clear up that doubt and give you reasons to my answer. We will compare the prominent gaming consoles as per this year i.e PC, Xbox 360, PS3, Nintendo Wii.
I’m sure you’ve noticed that I haven’t put up the portable game market as their impact on the market is minimal. The PC has been around forever even before the PlayStation and the Xbox were even concepts. As a matter of fact these consoles are based on the PC. None of them would have existed without the PC. It has much of my respect as the PC remains an honest reliable machine capable of out performing any other platform by miles, but it is a great expenses to get a good gaming PC. So for that reason the PC will be eliminated, it is more of single player machine than multi. The Xbox 360 and the PS3 on the other hand which more or less fall under the same category are more serious gamer based platforms that publish games for the everyday player, they have not as yet been able to encroach the causal family gamer market but soon will.
However to my disbelief the Nintendo Wii has gone far beyond the conventional gamer. It doesn’t have the best graphics nor is it capable of supporting a massive online multiplayer games nor is it the most attractive looking machine, YET, it outsells the remainder of the platforms by very big figures. How did that happen?
The Wii is responsible for bringing the whole family under one roof instead of the dad who tried to play a game with his son on the PS3 and can’t get a hang of it. It is a motion based console which requires no intense previous knowledge of how it works. If you need to play tennis all you have to do is swing the controller like a tennis racket. If you need to throw something in the game you perform the throwing action with the controller. The tagline ’Jump In'suits the Wii better than the Xbox.
So for this simple reason the Wii will continue to dominate the market for alteast next 5 years until the remaining the platforms become more universal and family based. You could buy Second hand campervans and go with nothing but the Wii and actually have a good time with your family.
