Is the Wii really competing with PS3 and Xbox 360?

I love Nintenodo's in house games so I buy a Wii, I loved the idea of playing and competing online with others so I bought an XBOX 360. I then discovered listening to foul mouthed Americans and competing against some who obviously take it way to seriously when they lose is no fun and I discover I actually prefer to work through games and complete them myself, so I sold my XBOX 360. I don't like endless repeats/sequals of PS2 games and it seems a lot of the games I will be able to play on the Wii anyway, so i will never buy a PS3 unless it comes down near PS2 prices.

The Maturity level of some of the people that play Xbox Live is another issue entirely. I do know a couple people personally that won't use the service anymore either because of the foul mouthed bad attitudes you come across. I'm not fond of it myself, or fond of my year and a half son over hearing any of it. I still play, and get my behind kicked hard and repeatedly (I can't believe how good they are online), but I do it without the headset and don't listen to all the junk.

This is the reason I think Home may be an exercise in futility. Home could be a Disneyland for adolescent jerks and griefers.
