You guys do make pretty good opinions. It does sell like crazy but I guess it does this by finding a pretty broad audience like families and its in/around everyone's budget with a tough economy.

But comparing it with other consoles like the 360 at a cheaper value, I still think its expensive for a system that doesn't play DVD's/HD video/Quality online service. But if you get a rebuffed Hard Drive for $20 and an HD/AV cable cheap for the 360, then both the prices will be around the same price and the 360 would still offer a lot more.

I own both systems, so please no fanboy wars. i just want a valid opinion if the Wii is overpriced.

That's your personal opinion and I don't mean that in a negative way. I'd just like to remind you that many people think differently. They might see no value in the features you listed, thus they don't care that the Wii doesn't have them.

What most people see when purchasing a console are the games available for it. The Wii currently has the most desireable exclusive software and that's why people are willing to pay for it

 

Yeh, its my personnal opinion. Thx for understanding :). But I know that most people have different ways of purchasing/picking their consoles. i just wanted to point out different options and what I think is a better choice for them.
