Pushing sales is funny. Stockholder?

I had a Wii! It had some good games! I liked it! Then I got bored! Then I sold it!

Point being: Sales can be a fun thing to follow and discuss... Opinions, predictions, and the ultimate outcome that weighs heavily on the direction of the gaming industry...

If the original Playstation hadn't sold the way it did, would the gaming industry be the same as it is today?

If Wii came out and absolutely nobody cared, would there be speculation that Microsoft is going to be ripping off their controller? Would anybody even want to rip off their controller? Would Nintendo use similar technology, and take a similar approach, to their next console?
