Really it cant compare to the 360.

Mario, Zelda and Wii sportsare allcool and they have Guitar Hero now. But the list of games are so much shorter compared to the 360. The graphics, multilayer, HD and HD DVD player compatible. Wiis online multi player is pathetic and it cant even play regular DVDs and it isn't even in HD.

If 360 wanted to destroy the Wii they would make XBL free or cut the price in half and have the console come with a wireless router so they can connect easier, built in HD DVD player.

The PS3 is such a better piece of hardware. Comes with rechargeable batteries built in to controls you just plug it in to the system and it recharges the controller, built in blu ray DVD player,you can play PS2 games on it,wireless router built in so you can connect to your Internet wirelessly, plus6 axis motion sensor controllers like the Wii has. Plus you get free online gaming which is way better than the Wiis and also an internet browser.

Its like comparing a Toyota against a Mercades. Who cares that one sells more than the other doesn't take away from the better piece of machinary.

Better machinery? Ironically, RROD = better machinery now?

Plus, the list of games for the 360 is longer because it has been out a year longer. The Wii is starting to ramp up with more games being announced for it.

And stop with the car analogies. Neither the 360 nor the PS3 are mercedes and the Wii is not a toyota.

1) Of course the 360 is going to have a better game library. It's been out twice as long.

2) XBL being free wouldn't "destroy" the Wii... People don't buy a Wii for the online.

3) Yes the PS3 a better peice of hardware, duh. That doesn't mean it's a better gaming console. This is the gaming industry.

People buy a Wii because it's different and offers a new kind of experience. We all know the Wii doesn't have the uber graphics or online.

Do you people feel offended by the Wii? Does it's success make you cringe at nights?

I don't understand, but I guess I won't worry. Matter of preference, and I've been enjoying my Wii greatly these past few weaks. I frankly don't need a HD player, the concern for HD graphics don't matter to me significantly. Good graphics don't always make a great game.

One thing the Wii truly cannot be compared to the 360 is failure rate, the infamous RROD.

It's all about the controller. People find it fun to fling that thing around like a madman to do stuff. I on the other hand, prefer a regular controller just to be casual. The Wii will hopefully help obesity in america, however. 360 on the other hand... not doing anything for for anyone imo.

PS3 has better games IMO. Outside of Zelda, Mario, Metroid and a bunch of mini games gameswhat do they really have? PS3 has Resistance,Ratchet and Clank, Uncharted, Warhawk, Heavenly Sword along with Oblivion, Orange Box, Call of Duty 4, Unreal Tournament,R6 Vegas, Ghost Rehcon, Ninja Gaiden, Assassins Creed.

What do you got to say about that?

Compare 1st year games for 360 versus 1st year games for Wii it isnt even close.

Wii has different style of games. Why because you wiggle the controller. PS3 has the same thing. They just use it for more moderation instead of it being involved in all the controls.

Have you even used a Wii remote? It's nothing like the PS3 motion controls.

*sigh* I'm not going to list every Wii title that isn't "Zelda, Mario, Metroid and a bunch of mini-games". You can look it up and prove yourself wrong. Secondly, quality is subjective. The PS3 simply isn't worth the money, at the moment, IMO. The only titles on the PS3 that I'm interested in are multiplat - thus, my status as a 360 owner.

If you dont have a PC then Gears of War, Halo 3, Mass Effect, Bioshock, Forza 2, are just some top games that arent on the Wii.

Take away little kid games, mini games games, zelda, metroid and mario and that is it. i know there are others but nothing that stands out. Just admit it already.

really stop fooling yourself.

yes i beat zelda and played some wii sports and then sold it to my friend for $400 and now i need to get another one for mario galaxy. and i also have a PS3 and I like they way they use the 6 axis controller for like aiming arrow and cannon ball shooter in HS and in Drakeswhere you are walking on ledges you use it to keep your balance. I would rather use issparingly rather than in zelda every time i attack im jiggling my controller i would rather just tap a button.
