Well I bolded all the issues in that post.. It's ok for you to see less value in Wii and I can see where you're coming from especially with having the blu-ray player built in, that's a big benefit to you. However that's what it is. It's a benefit to you, one which you say frequently that many people like you would like but in fact many more would prefer Wii Fit to having blu-ray.

You also said "I mean just buy looking at forum chatter of games people want and are coming this year ... " Well yeah the few tens of thousands of people frequenting forums.. I'm sure there are many also trumpeting Ubuntu but take a look at Linux's marketshare. I'm glad you enjoy your PS3 and find it a worthy purchase but I'm taking on a more encompassing, consumer/market orientated approach to my argument.


For many years I was regular reader of Slashdot. If one used the talk around there as a gage of operating systems one would get the impression that marketshare for OSes goes:

  1. Linux
  2. Mac OS
  3. Other Unix variants
  4. Various vapourware OSes
  5. ?
  6. ?
  7. ?
  8. ?
  9. ?
  10. Windows

The point being that you are absolutely right, you can't judge anything by gaging internet chatter other than what interests the people who hang out where you do.
