The Wii menu is easy to understand and navigate, but I find it completely useless nowadays. If there was an autoplay option I'd probably never see it again.

I say the XMB is better if only because you can bring it up at any time at the push of a button, message friends, see what people are playing, view your trophies etc. Plus, it's easy enough to use and dynamic themes FTW.

Can't comment on NXE.

You do not like WiiWare or VC?

I have some VC games but I'm finished with them now. I don't buy many downloadable games on any system.

Ok as I just bought a 360 and have had a PS3 for about 2 years now I would have to say that I like the PS3's menu the best as I am more familiar with it. I do not really like the new 360 menu layout at all. I did have a roommate 4 years ago that had a 360 and I liked that menu a lot better than the new one out. The Wii's menu is just too simplistic and really has no organization. It still is nice though. Out of the three I would list them as PS3, Wii, 360. Now if the 360 still had the old menu it would be tied with the PS3 in my mind as the best menus.

XMB is great unless you're really bad with intuition and technology

my favorite menu is the ps3's xmb...it feels like home

however, the best menu will have to go to the wii, i mean its customizable and pretty to boot

the nxe is too slow, and the you have to scroll all the way to the end to see the options in a slow way...its pretty and all, but too clustered

I like the XMB the most, but that would be because that's the one I'm more familiar with (First PSP, then PS3). Still, I love how everything is organized, and how you can get to what you are looking for in a blink.

NXE could have been a perfect tie, but sometimes taking a lot of time for it to load stuff was a downer. EDIT: I forgot: I sometimes hate the ads everywhere.

Don't have a Wii.

That's right, just one "d"

Wii has the most intuitive and easy to navigate menus... But, since it is not as functional as the 360 or PS3, it is not really an apples to apples comparison.

360 is in second. Blades are nice, but because there is so much there things are hard to find sometimes...

The PS3... Third... Seems like everything was just tacked in with very little thought and organization.
