A New Era of Video Games: The End of Shovelware

In my opinion, the best way to discriminate is to buy the best company in the industry, which would be Nintendo. Ninendo's stock price is way off the 52 week high, just like everyone else, but sales of both the Wii and DS hardware and software continue to grow at a very healthy rate and new products like Wii Fit are difficult to find in stores. It is reasonable to ask if Nintendo has peaked with this generation of products, but it appears that they continue to grow stronger and should see significant price appreciation on the back of strong holilday sales and a (hopefully) improving general economic climate.

Why Microsoft's XBox 360 Will Outsell Nintendo's Wii

Most of your arguments for the superiority of the Xbox are the same arguments that have been made since the Wii was originally introduced. The Xbox has come down in price and Microsoft has introduced some compelling titles in Japan, but the rest of the argument is the same--Xbox is technically superior with more hard core games. The Wii has outsold Xbox, and in my opinion will continue to do so, because it's products appeal to a much wider audience and a much larger market.
