So according to NPD for the last, I don't even know how long. The top 2 systems: The Nintendo DS and the Wii are the bottom 2 on the above list. So is the same true for video games as it has been for movies? The big budget blockbusters are never the critics darling and all ways the financial windfalls that allow the studio to make their art films? If only this WAS the case. According to this the cheapest, most economically made games are the ones that not ONLY critique for the worst scores but sell the worst. Now I know what your saying, these are aggraded game scores not system scores. But who would buy a game system with SO MANY terrible games. Apparently the overwhelming majority of consumers. I'm sorry, folks; if this is any indication of the popular trend to come, we are all going to be playing Peggle 2020 on our iphones in the VERY near future. Rather than playing anything in 3D or virtual reality or anything else you might be imagining when you think of the future of video games. So think about that the next time you spend that $1 on the next Tetris clone.
