How Grand Theft Auto IV Threatens The Wii
BURLINGAME, CALIF. – Since the launch of the Nintendo Wii videogame console in November of 2006, the Japanese videogame company had not missed a beat. That is, until the release of Grand Theft Auto IV this week.
This is just the opening paragraph to the article, there is a lot more to it. Could this be true? For the time being, I believe yes. I have a feeling that we are going to see unnatural sales numbers for GTA 4 at the end of this month. The question is; will the Wii be affected in the long run? Will GTA put a big enough dent in the armor of the Wii to cause it to fail? Who know, only time will tell. What I do know is that the Wii has a big enough casual fan bass, and the most loyal fan-boys, that will find themselves coming back to the Wii. Heck, the Wii is only a year and a half old, and there are still so many games to come out: (ie Pikmin, kid icarus, Next Zelda game) I know Nintendo has more up their sleeves.
