Wow, just sadness.

Yesterday's news that Wii Fit continued to ride high on the U.S. video game sales chart last month told only half the story.

I just confirmed with the NPD Group that the fitness title's lifetime sales has topped Halo 3's. As of the end of February Wii Fit has sold 6 million copies in the U.S. while Xbox 360 goliath has moved 5.9 million copies in its life time.

Keep in mind that the $90 Wii Fit launched in the U.S. on May 21 of last year, while Halo 3 hit the Xbox 360 on Sept. 25 of 2007.

With 6 million balance boards out there and a legion of Wii owners, there's got to be an incoming wave of games developed for the new peripheral.

Casual gamers are overruling us. The hardcore gamers are a dying breed.....geez, this sucks.

Pretty much. It is kind of disturbing, but I doubt anybody can say they didn't see it coming. And I'm not so sure it's because hardcore gamers are a dying breed, it's just that there is more $$$ to be had from the casual crowd. Greed rules all in the end.

This isn't really all that surprising, and not just because there are fewer hardcore gamers. I guarantee half of the Wii owners on this forum bought Wii play just for the extra Wiimote.

fixed :lol
