And I'm saying: Yeah. Wii's size is also impressive but it's silly to compare it with PS4/XB1. It has 61 gigaflops for crying out loud (PS4 has 1840 gigaflops).

"I don't think Wii is very small, PS2 Slim is what I think is very small." You see how silly that comparison is?

So, PS4 Slim is smaller than OG PS2, buy your point PS4 need to be much bigger than OG PS2 because has much more power!? That doesn't make any sense.

And I didn't talk at all about power, I talk just about size, regardles PS4 power I dont think PS4 is "very small".

PS2 Slim is final version of console with longest life on market (around 12 years), not exactly good comparison with first revision of Wii.

Bold: The final revision of PS2 (PS2 Slim that launched 4 years after the original) is smaller than the final revision of Wii (Wii Mini that launched 6 years after the original). But this is not even relevant to my point. It was just an example of how silly it is to compare sizes of consoles that are so different. It's like saying "PSTV isn't small. Just look at my Tamagotchi." (no that's not a reference to my dick)

 

Regarding the rest: What?

 Here. See SWORDF1SH's post. He's better at explaining my point than I am

I get what both of you are saying. [Mike_L is] trying to say it's small when you consider the tech it packs. While Miyamotoo is saying Wii (Wii U even) is small without looking at the tech but purely on size. Wii definitely was a small console at launch before any revisions but was technically weak to allow them to do that.

With the PS4, Sony flexed it's muscle. It's more powerful than the Xbox One but still launched a lot smaller. Even MS' second attempt 3 years later couldn't match the PS4's launch size.
