Thanks Entroper and Redspear.. You got me :( How sad am I to enjoy one console and despise the other. The fact is GGE claims by her Name Tag that she is Elite Girl player. Elite Girl players are playing the so called "Big Boy games" like the ones I have stated, or even Gears, H3 and other games that usually appeal to hardcore gamers. You look at any elite player that plays or even gets paid professionally - they are playing games that require skill, requires ability and they are not on the Wii.

I just wanted to comment on this paragraph.  Firstly, any gamer can claim they're Elite regardless of what games they play.  You can take pretty much any game and put a challenge on it to put yourself above all the other players of that game. 

Secondly, I fail to see how Silent Hill, MGS, FF, Gears, H3, etc. require more skill or ability than games on the Wii.  Sure they're fun, the styles are usually darker, and for the time being there is an easier way to compare skill/ability through online multiplayer in some of them, but what makes them so different that they require more skill or ability? Most genres require a different kind of skill, but who is to argue which requires more?  I'll just stick to PC games for an example:  Half-Life 2, Starcraft 2, and World of Warcraft players may excel at their favorite game and thus probably be very good at other games of that genre, but may suck at the others.  There's no reason to call a FPSer more skilled than a RTSer or an RPGer or vice-versa.
