I think it's been hinted at enough already by many here that graphics don't make a game any better. I just don't know how you can claim that the Wii has the worst line-up. There are games on the Wii for an 8 year old, other games for an 18 year old, other games for a 38 year old as well as another selection of games that a 38 year old can play with his/her 8 year old, ..., and games even a 68 year old can enjoy. That's the best line-up. That's one of the reasons they sell so well. I'd also argue that the PS3 and the XBox360 were not next gen consoles when they came out. They were the last gen with better graphics. The Wii was the only next gen and now the PS3 and Xbox360 have to catch up - they are indeed actively trying to catch up introducing their own motion sensing controls which decidedly defined the current generation console. Its not graphics or processor - its the change in the gaming experience that the Wii brought with its seemingly silly motion sensors that makes it better. Upgrading graphics are the gimmicks just like special effects in a sci-fi movie.

I just don't understand why high tech firms wouldn't instead invest more in virtual teaming technology. Why does a Google employee have to be in California anyways? Does Google creativity involve indoctrination that could only take place in a "cool" office workspace? How diverse a workforce can you have if you want everyone to live the California lifestyle? California doesn't appeal to everyone regardless of their stance on same-sex marriage.
