just for the record, I have a Wii........its around here somewhere under about 6 inches of dust.
My 9 year old Nephew uses it to play smackdown raw or some such crap. He begs me to let him play the PS3 or 360. He calls the Wii "the Weak" Like this "come on, pleeeese let me play the PS3 I don't want to play the Weak anymore!! the Wii is essentially a gamecube with a 100 more mhz processor and a gimmicy imprecise controller scheme.

This coming from a anon,(but, I still do appreciate you actually answering even if it is anonymously.) so your saying that The Wii is not used by old people and children and that it is a system that is on par with the 360 and PS3? that the Wii does play DVD's? or that you can use it as a media server?

here is something that I posted a while back, and if the big "N" can rake in the cash doing this fine. but, don't presume because casual gamers are buying the Wii that it is somehow superior to the other 2 consoles.

"In a sense, a company selling their console at a loss is good for the buyer, that means that the games have to be compelling enough to sell, because that is where the profit will be coming from. with the Wii, (a console that is very limited and its only claim to fame is it's unique controller) the big "N" makes a profit on every unit sold, the games cannot even be considered secondary, the selling of more nintendo brand "gadgets" and "doodads" meant to make the Wii work like it should have in the first place takes second slot in the Priority list apparently. so, essentially, Nintendo just t-bagged all of its fans and customers with The Wii. that is why most games on the Wii are shovelware. and every once in a while Nintendo throws a bone out by updating an older game, changing the name slightly a parading it out to get more people to fall into its trap."

you have hit the nail right on the head, I have one of these dust collectors floating around the house somewhere. thank god I didn't spend my money on it. I also own a PS3 and 360 and love them both. great games excellent controllers great graphics and complex stories with great high quality surround sound.

It may be a/the top selling console but, seeing that only people who don't play games are buying them. (eg: old people, parents of very young children, care givers for people with downs and aspergers syndrome.)
People who play games on the other hand know that the Wii is a scam and a waste of money. personally, I LIKE good graphics and a complex storyline, I LIKE to play dvd's and blu-ray discs on my console. I like having the ability to download games and demo's to an internal hard drive. I like using my console as a media server.
