psp has more ram then wii !

[QUOTE="stvee101"][QUOTE="Marth6781"]

[QUOTE="stvee101"]So let me see if I've got this right,a refurbished Gamecube with motion-sensing added on costs 250USD,where as a 360 could be had for around 300USD,Is this right? Because if it is then wow,just wow, thats crazy.But I've got to give it to Nintendo,because thay've been real smart this gen ,realizing they just couldn't compete head-on with Sony and MS in the technological arms-race,they decided to go a different route,and now,along with the ds's sales,the company directors must be sleeping on piles of money.Marth6781

Just about every year nintendo has released a console they HAVE HAD THE MOST POWERFUL ONE, nintendo could have seriously if they wanted to make something that would blow the ps3 out of the water.

Nintendo last gen made more money off the gamecube than sony or microsoft did with their xbox/ps2.

Nintendo made more money with the GC than Sony made with the PS2? :? Link?

Why is it though you can get a 360 for roughly the same price as a Wii? Nintendo are milking it,and I don't blame 'em.

Microsoft dropped the price, DUH!

By what you saying the 360 is overpriced b/c you can get one for 400$, even though the ps3 costs(costed) more than the 360 to make and its hardware is more powerful.

:lol: what difference does that make,the point still stands,the 360 is roughly the same price as a Wii.

BTW I don't own Wii,360 or a PS3 ,so this isn't just some Wii-bashing post,,I'm just putting an unbiased point of view across.I sort of admire Nintendo for pricing their console like that a making a huge success with it.

It makes a big difference!
Do you want nintendo to lower their price everytime microsoft has a price cut?

And nice job ignoring my post about the ps3/360 prices.

exactly wtf is RAM???legend26

Random Access Memory. Basically if a hard/optical/flash drive is a computer's "long-term" memory, than the RAM is it's "short-term" memory (storing only currently relevant data). RAM is much faster than any disc drive, though the drawback is that it's volatile (needs a continuous charge to be maintained) and relatively expensive per MB.

So just becuase Cows can't get the PSP to win in the PSP vs DS polls means that they're picking on the Wii now?

PSP vs Wii, huh?

On a standard or 480p screen, Wii may in fact be able to do more than 360 or PS3 with this much RAM, but I don't see that happening at all.

ahh i got it what i meant was that using this much ram the wii should be able to do better then its counter parts since it uses lower resolutions, while that can make some sense the wii wont be able to suprass its counterparts in terms of graphics due to other technical limitations, i obviously was under effect of some drug that day, feel free to sig me =p

Memory: * 88 MiB main memory (24 MiB "internal" 1T-SRAM integrated into graphics package, 64 MiB "external" GDDR3 SDRAM)[46] * 3 MiB embedded GPU texture memory and framebuffer. this is from wiki wii does not use mega bites it uses mega bits witch are much small . wii has a tiny amount of ram . even psp slim has more ram then wii does . i got this from wikipedia . psp slim has 64mb ram witch means it has more ram then wii does .deadmeat59

You got this from Wiki? Hahahahahahaha! lol lol lol:lol::lol::lol:. Wiki is a very unreliable source. But in the evnt that this IS true, RAM has never determined whether a system was good or not last time I checked. That's what memory cards are for:P

No, no it doesn't.

Your understanding of memory units is lacking.

Yep the Wii is vastly overpriced. Even most games and especially the VC are overpriced too. I have no problem with the direction Nintendo is going they just need to stop being so damned greedy and giving a horrible value to consumers. Lazy_Boy88

Waaait a minute! we have lemmings and cows coming in here telling us the wii is over priced, when even simple Halo maps cost 3 dollars?

did we forget about the horse armor? I have been getting free dowload maps on PC games for years, and with such an easy system like forge,

we shouldnt be charged through the nose.

My dell computer from 2001 has more RAM than the PS3.

Yay! I can run UT3 on it!

*Installs game, PC explodes Scanners-esque*

Wii probably costs about $50 to make and it sells for $250, we already know the motion sensing costs about $2 to make. :| Nintendo are making tons off cheap hardware. Milkage.Dahaka-UK

i heard nintendo wanted to sell it for much less, but retailers didnt want to profit laughble ammounts per unit sold, but iam unsure if its truth
