Prices of controllers

Blacksaber - why would a simple statement of facts make you mad?

You buy 3 extra controllers because the single player gameplay depth is missing from a lot of Wii games and playing with a friend is the only way they are fun. (wii play, wii sports, mario party, rayman 1&2, etc)

The point is the total cost of getting up and running. Trying to add the cost of the TV to the PS3? Thats just silly and pretty much tells me you see nothing wrong with my point so you will try to move the argument to something else.

Think of it as the cost to mom & dad buying a gift for their son. If they just get their son a Wii and leave him with only the 1 included controller and Wii Play - is he going to be happy? Or is he heading to Best Buy to buy the rest of the stuff he needs for when he invites his friends over to play? If you get him a PS3 and Uncharted and he wont leave his room for a couple days.

 

Add Mario Galaxy, 2 wavebirds ($60) and Mario Kart and he will be.

(Look I have two great games, four controllers, and a couple of party games to your one. For the same price!)
