Sooooo you are saying that the Wii will technically match the PS3's 10 year plan with tech that was outdated even for THIS generation? I won't say it is impossible, just HIGHLY unlikely IMO.

 

Techonology has never won console wars.  It has always been the amount of new experiences offered by the console that wins it.  NES won due to new gaming experiences never experienced at home before (such as arcade ports, etc.)  Genesis/Megadrive refined that experience hence was able to steal some market share from Nintendo however the SNES was able to offer more of these and better in the end hence it won.

The PS1 offered new 3D worlds and a whole not of new experiences through its shear number of software.  PS2 is to SNES as PS1 is the NES.

The technology of the PS3 is designed to offer the same experiences of the PS1 and PS2 albeit in a more refined, more beautiful and more expansive way.  The Wii's technology offers gamers new experiences in interacting with their games.  In that regard, it is the PS3 that is technologically backward.
