Regardless of those graphs, it is priced higher than the 360 and the PS3, which are in the same graphics range. When people need to choose between one or another price matters.

The screen is really the only value add, as well as the new games. But the PS360 have a massive library. The price is a bit steep, but during the holidays it's a tempting purchase regardless. I have to admit that the 3DS came out in march, which was a bad time to offer a steep price. Christmastime always makes a product more alluring.


So, is graphics capability (for which the Wii U's potential remains to be seen) is the barometer for price?  I mean, the Wii was kind of on par with the Gamecube, Xbox, and PS2 but the price for the Wii was $250 while the Gamecube was sub $99.  The last gen consoles had massive libraries, too. 


I think what he is trying to say is that too the average person, they probably wont see much of a difference between PS360/Wii U, besides the tablet pad. I kinda agree. IMHO the asking price isnt worth it to play a few new games and games that one could already get on a console they have or could get for cheaper. The wii is a bad comparison, because it released after 360 was already out and the gen started in earnest. Wii U will be competing with cheaper consoles on the market that could play most of the same games. 

That comparison was awesome and you know it.
