I have been playing Nintendo since I was five,only having Super Mario Bros and duck hunt.. Since then I've gotten every Nintendo system and every nintendo handheld except Gameboy Color.In my opinion Nintendo still makes the best games; Mario, Kirby, Super Smash Bros., Zelda, Metroid and Pokemonruled the schoolyard back in the day.I started noticing a problem when for the first time I seriously started considering getting a non-Nintendo system while playing my friends 360.

Look at wii's page on gamespot. The news screen that flashes by now only has four slots, the other systems having five slots, not too big of a deal, theres just not as much news to report for the Wii.

Next look at the top rated games section, eight of those are nintendo made. I remember Nintendo talking about all the third party support it was getting with wii. And the third party games we do get are nothing special, Naruto, One Piece, de blob and truama center? nothing main stream nintendo will really benefit from.

The graphics, us nintendo fans can say it doesn't matter, and graphics will never be the deciding factor for me personally, but it is for a lot of people and Call of Duty 4 for xbox360 is alot nicer than my call of duty 3 for wii

And all of this is happening when PS3 dropped its price and started coming out with a few successful games, which is something 360 has been doing for quite some time now. How long do you think before Nintendo slips from power? i cant see it staying on top for more than two more years at this rate.

The PSP is definitely the better handheld as far as games go.  The DS is a gimmick handheld.  I have proof!  Here at GamSpot, the PSP has more AAA + AA games than does the DS.  The PSP has only 5 AAA games compared to the DS' 7, however, it is in AA land that the PSP far surpasses the DS.  Links are below:

So DS has more superb rated games, has been dominating sales charts everywhere, and is mocked considerably less than the PSP....... yep its a gimmick

After being out for a year and a half microsoft has produced 11 games which received a gamespot rating of 8.7 or higher. In this time it has sold 10 million and something units.

After being out for a half of year, mearly one third of the time wii has produced 4 games which received an 8.7 or higher, and has sold 7 million and something units. In this first 6 mothes wii has sold over a million more units than Xbox 360 had in its first year.

After the PS1 and PS2 success, PS3 is turning out to be Sonys ugly third child. After being out for a half of year, the same time as wii, PS3 has one game that received a B+ or higher, and is a port. Even worse, It hasnt even sold half as many units as wii, only selling 3 million and something units.

I know that its still early but as of now Wii is winning, Xbox 360 is second and PS3 is third. I'm sick of people saying 360 is winning and wii will flop, if you multiply the units sold and number of good games for wii and playstation3  by three, to compensate for the 360 being out for three times as long, you will see wii is thus far most successful

fair enough, but at this rate which console will have sold more units in another 6 monthes? and while i'm at it might i add that you still cant find wiis on shelves anywhere, but you can find 360s all over the place

But PSP fun, success, or great sales does not even come close to the DS

now, do graphics matter more than fun and success?

Sony along with kutaragi deserves more credit and respect than any other gaming company. Psone rocked, ps2 rocked and ps3 rocks bigtime boyakasha. What can nintendo and micro$oft brag about? All they have is flopping franchises. Sure wii sells but it still sucks major because it has no games.  I dont wanna play monopoly on a next gen system so wii can suck it bigtime.

 Short, ps3 = Best, the michael jordan of gaming.

360 & wii = tonya harding

Go to highest rated games for both ps3 and wii here on gamespot... now remember an 87 and above is a B+

wii has four games B+ or higher, one of them is a port

ps3 has one game B+ or higher, which is a port

Nintendo can brag about having five major console generations and for having the only successful hold on the handheld market

Microsoft can brag about having the best next gen library to date

Nintendo can brag about having long running, and STILL SUCCESSFUL franchises

Microsoft can brag about its very successful new franchise gears of war

What can sony brag about? it just came out with the awesome god of war 2......... for its last gen console...

just wondering, what to xbox 360's graphics look like on a normal TV?

[QUOTE="MarioSonicMK"]who cares, wii has first party nintendo games, and you cant get more fun than marioNicktehImperial

Please name these first party games oh and how about we leave out Mario Galaxy, Zelda and Metroid..  

How about we name good 360 games, and how about we leave out Gears, ME, Halo, and all other shooters ect.  I can do a the same thing. Its only fair.

Oblivion, Gears of war, Dead rising, Mass effect, Halo 3, COD 2, COD 3, GRAW, GRAW 2, Forza, Blue dragon, Bioshock, GTA4, others I'm forgetting now although theres alot of shooter. Oh DOA 4.

first party only

smash bros
