And the Wii is there only system. Does that mean that they're too poor to buy any other system, so they haven't seen the amazing power of the PS3 or Xbox 360? Is this fight really against the poor and the rich? Because I'm confused! The Xbox 360 and PS3 both are extreamly powerfull. Where the Wii is Gamecube 1.5. Could someone please tell me whats going on?!!

Why is the Wii getting so much aclaim? Is it just the Price? I mean shesh.

Being 'poor' has nothing to do with it. its about ones personal interest.

Because it has a fun library that appeals to everyone: gamers, casuals, and non-gamers alike. That's why it's getting and will continue to get the praise that it's recieving now.

Says the 15 years old spoiled kid. Btw, I have enough money to buy all 3 but why would I waste that much money when I barely have the time to play. I mean, I have other things to do in life than play video games.

And why do people like you believe that power = fun? Is it so incredible to know that a plastic box has tons of processing power? Games is what is important.

While the the wii is may be GC1.5 it doesn't call it self that. XBOX360 and ps3. Are both basically improvments on the same formula hence the name while the wii used to called the revoultion.

a system isn't worthy of praise just because it's powerful.

i like the wii because it's alot of fun, not because it's cheap

What COWS and YOU do not understand is that power does not equal great games.

Why theres only like 20 games?! And almost half of them were based off movies. The others are mini-games that last you an hour or two! If you were to stick a 360 or a PS3 with 5+ games into the home of a Wii owner. They'd get angry at you. And when you shut the door they would dance and be freaking gratefull because they can't afford them. Most Parents wont buy sally and tom a 400-600$ gamming console. Over 250$. Is the reason for the Wii's sucess all in the cost of the console?

The Wii has more games that appeal to us than the PS3 and Xbox, 'nuff said.

Oh and as a matter of fact, I have a PS2 and the money waiting in the bank for when good games come out on the PS3, which I doubt will ever happen.

Thank's for your opinion, but you and your silly little graphics can go to hell.

Um atleast the Wii has more games to play than the PS3. PS3's got a port of a RPG from last year, and Resistance. Woooooo!

The Wii is successful for many reasons. It appeals to people for different reasons. Obviously, being cheap is one of them, but theirs a larger reason as to why. The biggest factor would be the Controller combined with positive media buzz.

Parent's dont care. Most parents know what system their children want, and if they want the 360/PS3 they wont GO OUT and buy a Wii anyway just because its cheaper. They would know it would not make the child happy.

The Wii has a large attach rate too.. i have 7 games alone, and many other Wii owners i know have 3 - 5 games..

I love it when ever a hater makes a list they always seem to short change the list of games for the system they don't like. Lets see on top of my head you have missed Nights, SC: Legends, Mysims, Project O, Rayman 2, FF:CC, DQ, Pokemon and more than I care to list.

But you fail to mention Mario Party 8, Trauma Center, Excite Truck, Project Hammer, Disaster: Day of Crisis, Nights, No More Heroes, Red Steel, Super Paper Mario... You fail.

Gamecube was the cheapest system last gen. Why did it not sell the most?

Price is not the factor. It all depends on variables. Fro example millions of PS2's were sold becuase it was a cheap DVD player at the time. [Thats why the PS2 sold so much]

The reason Wii is selling more than the other systems is becuase alot of nongamer and even casuals and not to mention many hardcores are pulled by the Wii-mote which really changes the gamplay experiance.

alchemist007

A 300 dollar DVD player is cheap? I could've got a better and cheaper DVD player for 100 bucks back then.

And the Wii is not that cheap...it's 50 bucks cheaper than the PS2 when it was released.

I bought a wii, and it was cheaper than any other console (got me a hell of a lot more games than I could have gotten with ps3). However that is a bonus only, I would have taken it over PS3 either way.

And the Wii is there only system. Does that mean that they're too poor to buy any other system, so they haven't seen the amazing power of the PS3 or Xbox 360? Is this fight really against the poor and the rich? Because I'm confused! The Xbox 360 and PS3 both are extreamly powerfull. Where the Wii is Gamecube 1.5. Could someone please tell me whats going on?!!

Why is the Wii getting so much aclaim? Is it just the Price? I mean shesh.

I love it when ever a hater makes a list they always seem to short change the list of games for the system they don't like. Lets see on top of my head you have missed Nights, SC: Legends, Mysims, Project O, Rayman 2, FF:CC, DQ, Pokemon and more than I care to list.

Short change you kiddin me? I posted games I AM INTERESTED IN. Did you not see that?

No you said good games that were coming out and then you short changed the system you liked the least because you were trying to flame the Wii....But I understand we all have a system we like less than other systems. Just some of us don't try to hide it

I cannot afford the PS3 or the 360 (yet), but I am fully aware of their amazing power.

But amazing power does not translate to fun very often. Something the PS3 is getting to know all too well.

However, I am looking fordward to Banjo-Threeie, and if it lives up to it's predeccesors, the Xbox 360 is a must buy.

How am I trying to flame the Wii? I posted games that intrest me at all for those certain systems. Its clear why The PS3 and Xbox 360 lists are bigger. I enjoy shooting games or great online games. Then once in a while, a RPG will do the trick. Theres not much you can do about not enjoying many games on the Wii. If they actually released more then just arcade games, I would have a much bigger list.

Says the 15 years old spoiled kid. Btw, I have enough money to buy all 3 but why would I waste that much money when I barely have the time to play. I mean, I have other things to do in life than play video games.

And why do people like you believe that power = fun? Is it so incredible to know that a plastic box has tons of processing power? Games is what is important.

Your right games are important, too bad Wii gets little to no good games. I wasted the time to look through a list of games I would enjoy on each system and here it is.......(Note this list is 100% different for each person since everyone has different tastes but I covered the majority of "Good" games coming to the Wii)

There's a Harvest Moon game coming out on the Wii!? That's frickin' sweet! :D

But you fail to mention Mario Party 8, Trauma Center, Excite Truck, Project Hammer, Disaster: Day of Crisis, Nights, No More Heroes, Red Steel, Super Paper Mario... You fail.

Both of you forgot Battalion Wars 2, Brothers in Arms: Double Time, Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronciles, Ghost Squad, Mario Strikers, Saddness, Soulcalibur: Legends, Scarface, Smackdown vs. Raw.

What was the point of that?

Seriously - You admit that the list is unique to you personally and that everyone else will have different tastes, but you turn around and give us the irrelevant list anyway, as if it had some sort of persuasive power.

When GTA4 comes out, when Halo 3 and MGS4 and RE5 come out, they will secretly buy an Xbox 360/PS3. :)

True but once they find what they like, they will start branching out into different platforms and past generations to get their hands on more of what they like. Non-gamers are coming back (from the days of pre-NES) and cannot really follow the "pattern" set by "traditional" gamers of today's era. :P

Mine was an old Sega game called Xezon on a "tape deck" with a Tandy Color Computer 1....People get mad by loading time now. I use to load that game go make a sandwich and then come back and it would still not be loaded
