| Tecmo said: that's an expensive controller charger |
according to these graphs (mind you, they have launch versions of the PS3, so power savings may have been introduced), the wii uses ~160W less than the PS3 while charging the controller. Eventually, it would pay for itself, especially if you left your PS3 on 24hr/day so you could conveniently charge your controller (like some people I know do)
So it would repay for itself in 1.25 years
