And with both lacking any clue as how to make gaming inovative (aside from turning console gaming more and more into PC gaming) they simply compete the only way they know how by making bigger and ever more graphically outlandish systems

Well maybe that's because it's WHAT THEIR CUSTOMERS WANT... *Gasp* They actually listen to what their customers want instead of actually telling them what they want (well in Microsoft's case anyways).  Damn them to hell!!!  Why can't they be more like Nintendo and just tell customers what they want?  Damn customers don't need a good online experience, etc...  That's what we want companies to do, tell us what to think...

Look maybe graphics mean nothing to you and I'm happy for you that you're enjoying your Wii, they actually do look fun, but there are some of us that have HD tvs and actually enjoy good graphics to go along with good games and expecially in some of the genres some of us play.  That's not to say all Wii games don't have good graphics (some of them have fairly good graphics) just they we might want a bit more than what's possible on it and last gen machines.


IF Nintendo isn't giving people what they want, then why is it selling so well? Huh? Seriously, always justification after the fact with you delussional Nintendo haters. Considering their last console sold like shit, how do you figure they're forcing horrible business practices on the consumer now that they're actually doing good?

How are people are showing their dissaproval of what Nintendo is giving them when the Wii won't stop flying off store shelves. Listen, its simple logic, If the Graphics are too expensive to make happen without inflating the production cost and thus console cost, then the market was obviously not meant to go there. Nintendo was simply doing what was logical and within the means of the economy. Sony and Microsoft are building increasingly expensive machines just to eek out what little bit extra potential they can over the last gen and charge you more for it. Nintendo is actually doing what is smart, economical, consumer friendly, and most importantly, successful.

How about you tell me how putting Blu-Ray into the PS3 is giving the consumer what they want? How can the consumer want something that doesn't even have a market yet and is facing a format war?! How is the 360 what the consumer wants when they can't even sell half a million in Japan?
