Sooooo you are saying that the Wii will technically match the PS3's 10 year plan with tech that was outdated even for THIS generation?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.

     Okay, but is it any wonder then that the people that were looking forward to much more refined, much more beautiful, and much more expansive games this gen would be at least a bit anti-Wii?  Especially, if the Wii due to its marketshare was to start gaining some of the games those people were looking forward to the most this gen (eg. Kingdom Hearts III), and then started putting them out as games that in some ways were much closer to what last gen consoles could do than what they were hoping systems like the 360 or PS3 would be able to do?
