Sony's mistake was in not producing a console that they could sell for a profit (or at worst a reasonable loss) at a price people were willing to pay for a game console. This is what's known as overengineering: the PS3 wasn't overpriced, but what Sony really needed was something that could be less expensive at launch.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
