You mean better gameplay? Then why are you bashing Nintendo now? The Wii got awesome gameplay, same same with the DS. “I went for ps2 instead of xcross simply because the games on ps2 where and still are, way better.”

That still didn't prevent PS2 from being the bestselling system. And try dig the visuals in the Metroid Prime games. And the Wii IS much more powerfull than the gamecube. But it just doesn't have the extreme specs of the 360 or PS3. So what? Big deal The Graphics on the Gamecube were also better than PS2, and so were xbox graphics.

Wrong. The graphics capabilities are better on the Wii than the PS2. “The graphics suck badly, side not theyre not even good as the ps2 graphics.”

And as a side note: Wii sports has some amazing visuals. The problem is that the Mii's detract from it, but if you take a close look at none Mii objects they are very detailed.

Have you played Wii Sports yet? it's strangely very fun, especially with friends over. I'd have to disagree about ps2 graphics being better than the Gamecube's. Just look at games like Starfox Adventures, that game had some great visuals for it's time. Only time will tell. So far Wii is selling more than ps3. If sony can change that, then good for them, but let's wait and see what happens when the next-gen market is more mature. Nice post.

The graphics suck badly, side not theyre not even good as the ps2 graphics. Saying that the gamecube had better graphics so something wrong. The new style of gameplay seems really really kool. But I still see the ps3 and xbox360 and pc winning. I think more people are excited on how you can play with the game now. But in my opinion keyboard and mouse still pwns on fps games. Its a hard call cuz i can imgaine myself playing madden,racing,skating,basketball, maybe baseball on the wii mote. Then again other stuff can be kool on it. The major set back is the graphic issue with this console. Right now everybody is going OMFG this is gonna be amazing. To me this will be another N64 system where it was massive poplular then faded away. I think its a great idea but something that'll reach one million. But nintendo and MS are actuall worried about the gamers where sony worried about their movies too. I dunno its a hard call saying anything on this cuz I personally havent played it. But that tennis stuff looks really fun, aside from wii sports. You're really lagging in what games could be great for the console. Then again it always comes down to games. These are some of the games i see having a hard time playing on the console. 3rd person shooter,sports -not baseball-,racing...mostly this types. I heard FPS will be amazing for it!

The 100 million figure might be doable depending on if wii sales stay as strong Interesting though that analysts are changing their tune and backing wii now. Pre launch they all backed ps3 I think this analyst is pulling figure out his arse. 30 percent of households aren’t going to buy a games machine even one aimed at non gamers.

It's only difficult now because it is new, but over time, they will master it and rule the world! Well, 30% of it anyway.
