260 for Wii + 150 for upscale = $410 > PS3


Here's another one, for 50 dollars, if they enable CD and DVD playback via firmware, will you pay for it?

Nope.

Ever since I learned that using consoles as a media player can shorten the lifespan of their optical drive, I've been glad that Nintendo didn't even bother implementing multimedia capability. Better off buying a stand-alone player or a media center PC.

And I totally second TRoO's thoughts that $150 HD = 3 games, so screw HD. My Wii is hooked up to an HDTV, but I seriously don't care about pixel density.

 it's not about pixel density but about image quality, and the image is only as good as the source that produces it.

Also, playing games shortans the life span of optical drives, it's just natural wear and tear that occurs becuase of the moving parts the optical drive has.
