Gamestop profiting from Wii

Despite being easily confused, Gamestop's revenues are soaring. Profits are up an impressive 111% thanks to unceasing demand for the Wii and DS.

Despite limited supplies, hardware sales still went up more than 75%. Gamestop's CEO Richard Fontaine believes the Wii is bringing about a fundamental change in the marketplace.

Well, no shit. I've only been saying that since about 3 months before the Wii was even named the "Wii". It's the absolute own in revolutionary technology, reliability, and other fields of customer satisfaction. Too bad large gaming associations don't listen to customers anymore. Too busy counting profits, I suppose.

Right on scooby jew, I still haven't, and won't, play a Grand Theft Auto game. I'm sick of lewd conduct being endorsed and gameplay being looked over.

I think large companies are staring to notice the Wii and Nintendo is soon going to own the gaming market again.

Sony and Microsoft just uses the gaming industry as a way to gain profit. Scooby Jew is right, they don't care about the customers they just want the money in their pockets. If Nintendo keeps up all these new innovations, I'm guessing Sony and Microsoft would get kicked out of the industry in, oh about ten years (I'm guessing). But I bet Sony and Microsoft would try to copy Nintendo's innovations like Wii and the DS so ya better be careful big N.
