For everyone saying the PS3 sucks, I bet you never even played one before
My cousin has a Xbox 360 and PS3, I play them when I go over to his house, so I CAN compare the systems, and Tom maybe the games the wii has aren't fun to you but to me they're better than any games on the 360 and PS3.
What games did you play then?
PS3- Littebigplanet, some stupid racing game, Metal gear solid 4 (i forgot about that one :o), and the PS3 version of Sonic Unleashed
Xbox 360- Gears of war 2, Gears of war, Halo 3, Banjo Kazzoie nuts & bolts, and some other game I forgot.
My favorite games are Adventure (like Mario, Zelda, Sonic, etc.), Virtual Life (like Animal Crossing), sometimes puzzle (like in Zelda), but FPS and games like that are fun I guess but not near as fun as Adventure ones.
LittleBigPlanet is kinda boring, MGS4 is alright, if I could only figure out how to move on, Sonic Unleashed I've got it, hate Werehog. You need to try Mirror's Edge. |:
From what i've seen it isn't my kind of game.

THAT is my kind of game. :P
 
Yah it isnt the best console but it have the best game play on the planet. But now nintendo knows that the graphics are needed.
 
Yes t's the best.


IDC about the graphics, I care about how you play and the story line.

To a certain extent; N64 graphics on a next-gen is NUTS.
 
When it first came out it was a hit in my books....but the more time goes by the more people get bored of the wii's highlights..............but Brawl is the best game ever............
...........
 
Wii is pretty decent. It better pick up on epic games because SFIV got released today. It has some competition! =DD
 
Okay, I just want to make a quick post, even though this was bumped up.

The Wii. I was excited at first, because I had a GameCube, and I liked many games that Nintendo put out on its consoles.

When I got the Wii, it was fun... for a bit. The only other time that I really actually spent a load of time into playing a game was when I rented the Wii version of Bully (which I didn't mind the Waggle for... it was a decent game, and really fun), and Metroid Prime 3. Hell, I only ever use my Wii anymore to play GameCube games... just a few weeks ago, I moved the GCN into the family room so I could play big-screen Metroid Prime.

I suppose it was because the Wii was hyped so much, with it's "revolutionary gaming style" and whatnot... now I look at it, and I wish I got a 360 instead... far more interesting games (Fallout 3, Oblivion, Mirror's Edge, Gears of War 1/2, GTAIV), better online (do I even need to explain this), better graphics (while I do agree that graphics aren't everything, it's still nice on the eyes to see sleek graphics... especially when I have an HD TV), and I just personally like the console far more than the Wii.

I have yet to play a PS3, and I would like to try it a few times, because it's always good to have tried something and then give an opinion, rather than sit there and yell at your computer screen about something you've never even touched before in your entire life.

I'd also like to point out that the PC is the best gaming utility you could have. Good online, graphics can be made to your desire, pretty much everything is out on the PC nowadays, and the PC version of a game is always, by far, the more superior.

To sum it up, I'd much rather have a 360 right now, because I could play my GCN games on our working GCN... but a computer is the best thing you could have.

Quoting limited to 5 levels deep
The ONLY good game on PS3 is LBP.
What the Wii has
1. Fun unique controls.
2. Kinda suckish online but at least there is online
3. Mario
4. Zelda
5. Fun games
6. Virutual Console
7. It's cheap and affordable and small and convinent unlike the expensive and fatass PS3.
Mario? SMG was easy, Mario Party 8 sucked. MKWii is decent at best.
Zelda? All I see is a game that was on the GameCube; aka a PORT.
Virtual Console; yeah, games I bought 10 years ago. I buy a Wii to play some Wii, not NES.
Unique controls? Controls that tend to make or break most games.

Also, you have to pay ALOT in accessories if you want a complete Wii experience. Wii Wheel, WiiSpeak, Nunchuk, Wii Zapper, ans god forbid if you need to buy even more for another person.
uhmm sorry but this are the games that are awesome

SSBBrawl Overrated.
MKW Great online, leaderboards were ruined by glitches and the Homebrew Channel. Still, it was ok.
Mario Galazy EASSSSSSSYYYYYY.
ACCF More of the same, a hybrid more than a sequel.
No More Heroes
Battalion Wars 2
Zelda Twilight Princes PORT

oh and the games coming up

MadWorld
New Zelda
New Pikmin
No More Heroes 2
(for our hopes) Mario Party 9 WI FI

pleaseee
My views above. ^^^
Aaannnddd I am hopeful for all the upcoming games you mentioned except Mario Party. It'll be boring without voice chat because takes a long time for a entire board to be played out entirely... and I don't want to be sitting there watching my friends. And if they include matchmaking in there, it'll probably end in suck and fail. Imagine this: you play after 40 minutes, and after you finally are nearing the win, one of the following happens:
Lags, D/C'd from Wi-Fi or someone turns off their Wii or disconnects.
Twilight princess release dates in America:
11/19/06 Wii

12/11/06 GC

The gamecube version was released later, so that is considered a port, not the wii version.

Kolvo, please do some research before spouting your mouth off.
 
The thing i hate about it is u hav to get a friend code to add ppl on 360 and ps3 u can play them and add them on the spot
 
The wii is a good console but, its not the best improvement. Its beats PS3 and Xbox....
but the games are a bit stupid. Most of the games they have are Mini Games
 
See I like the way they did it on Wii with friend codes. Because now random idiots cant follow me into games. Only people I allow to. I wish there was an option though that allowed 2 people to add each other if they wanted, like in AC or MKW. They should expand on this a little bit.

Personally I love my Wii. I cant get enough. I've played it almost every day for the last 2 years. I wish they would add a few more Mature games. But I'm happy with my REs and COD. The games are great for parties and friends. Even if you suck at video games, you still could play Wii at a friends house and still have a blast. Which is more than I can say for the other consoles. I have a PS2, but I almost never play it, because I'm always playing Wii
 
Friend codes hurt the Wii more than help it, Nintendo has a good sytem with friend codes(from legal and safety standpoints), but they need to fix it somehow. By having the Wii's central code, that should be a universal code for all games, having a seperate code for both the wii and each individual game is a bit of a hassle. Aside from the online, the Wii is truly a great system, those who badmouth the Wii generally haven't played it to its full potential, or are just too big of xBox/PS3 fanboys/fangirls to even give it a fighting chance.

Not to say the Wii is the best of the generation of consoles, but its certainly not a bad system, its great fun.
 
Yeah roster should increase I would like more people on my Animal Crossing list or Brawl one but overall I prefer Wii than any other console :P
 
it's intresting to hear diffrent peoples point of view
i aggre 100% with the whole "friend code is stupid" because miiyamoto tried to help ppl to "be Careful" but instead it's just a pain in the ass i mean did he really think that we would'nt find a way around it? now i could think of 3 other ways to strictly crtisize the wii and how nintendo should come out with a patch and by now i no ur think "just shut up and buy a 360!" but there's a few reasons why i won't
1. my mom would'nt let me get M games/X-Box Live
and 2.The Wii's A decent System
 
God (that I don't believe in) awful third party support.
Gimmicky controls.
Three games Nintendo pumps out every year.
Hundreds of filler *censored.2.6* that line the shelves.
Zero console power.
*censored.2.1* online system.
Lack of console options and control.

It's not the best system. Not by a longshot.

*faceplam* It doesn't beat 360 and..... even the PS3 is better. The only thing it has that others don't is..... friend codes which suck.
