We don't feel like the Wii customer and the Xbox customer are the same thing. We think that as soon as the Wii customer turns 14 they want something else.' - John Rodman, group product manager, Xbox 360

Well, John Rodman obviously doesn't have his finger on the pulse of America, because everyone of all ages is playing it over here. I'm 20 and I love it. No interest in playing the same old bloody violent shooter games. If anything it seems like THAT stuff is aimed towards a young teenage audience. I got my bloodthirst in videogames out of my system years ago.

NEWS FLASH!! Thats not microsoft, thats ONE guy.....Fils-Aime and Moore are actually friends, and Moore has been quoted numerous times saying that if customers were to buy 2 machines, he would recommend the 360 (obviously) and the Wii.

The 360 is basically with the xbox with better graphics. The wii is something completely new. Basically, the wii beats the 360 in everything but graphics. As long as the graphics aren't all blocky, GRAPHICS DON'T MATTER

That's funny, because that's exactly what I am. I am a Wii customer, and an Xbox customer. Both great systems with great strengths. I actually bought the 360 because my Wii wasn't cutting it as a main console, so I wanted something else ...but I'm 30.

This is why I love Nintendo they don't say stuff like that about others and I really have respect for them for that.

OH NOOO.... I thought that Nintendo attract nongamers, ex-gamers and people over 60 and NOT 14 years old :,( Oh wait... its John Rodman, group product manager for Xbox 360. Its clear that he sux and knows nothing! He should speak to Mr Miyamoto, but I guess Rod's busy with sucking really hard and sucking super hard.

I haven't owned a nintendo since the 64.  Most of the reason I got the wii is for the virtual console and the gamecube games. I really hope we get some good shooters for the wii.  BTW, I'm 27

I'm 23. I play on Nintendo consoles. I have no appealing on the 360 and in fact, Microsoft doesn't attract me at all. Guess what Microsoft, I only use Windows to play on PC. For 95% at my time, I use Linux.

Xbox boss Neil Thompson also called Wii a "Kids Toy" and "Low-definition product" -- http://uk.wii.ign.com/articles/745/745321p1.html
