"I persona...@Anonymous from September 6, 2010:<br />"I personally don't put my Wii on it's side"<br />I don't either, I lay mine flat. I always thought that it would be less stress on the system to keep the disc reading correctly if it was flat, and I don't know many DVD players anymore that are encouraged to stand on their sides...maybe it's just preference though.<br /><br />@Jonath:<br />"...internet savvy people who use amazon might prefer black." Yea, I have debated on testing this in stores, but haven't done it yet.<br /><br />As for how I have my Wii, look at my above comment to Anonymous...<br />Do you think standing it on its side is more stressful on the system to keep reading it correctly? I really have no idea, it is just my own theory.<br /><br />@WesFX:<br />I don't have cable tv, so I don't see the ads; but if they are advertising the Black Wii, then it does make sense it would be selling more.<br /><br />"Though we know now that the 360 beat the Wii overall in sales for August, I really appreciate the look at same-priced units and their sales."<br />Thanks, I had all the consoles in one chart at the beginning, even the $350 PS3, but the chart was really crowded and I didn't think people would pay attention but to two or three lines at most.<br /><br /><b>Thank you all for the comments/feedback AGAIN!

Black is what is being advertised now, and I guess there's the element of uniqueness since so many millions of people have the white version, why not grab it in a color your friends don't have.<br /><br />Though we know now that the 360 beat the Wii overall in sales for August, I really appreciate the look at same-priced units and their sales.WesFXnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8884169422383528093.post-652098705218009632010-09-08T22:56:00.968-04:002010-09-08T22:56:00.968-04:00If I remember correctly, the 360 Arcade usually ma...If I remember correctly, the 360 Arcade usually makes up the majority of 360 sales.<br /><br />I'm surprised about the white Wii not doing as well, but the black Wii is still relatively new, and internet savvy people who use amazon might prefer black.<br /><br />@Anonymous<br />I have my Wii on its side because it saves me space, but I also prefer it that way. Otherwise it looks like a plain external CD/DVD player.

I personally don't put my Wii on it's side, as I think it looks a little goofy, but family members I've talked to/seen usually do, "because that's how it looks on the<br /> box." So uninformed people with a little extra money could be confused, especially with the price cuts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
