Soon the Darkside will be irresistable and will crush the MS rebel scum underfoot.

The Wii owners are like Ewoks. The Evil empire will tolerate them but turn their forest moon into a secret base.

No one quite knows for sure but the figures are probably somewhere around what onyxmeth has posted. Thugh the wii probably costs a bit less that $172 but as i said no one (outside of the comapnies) really knows



I mostly play RTS and Moba style games now adays as well as ALOT of benchmarking. I do play other games however such as the witcher 3 and Crysis 3, and recently Ashes of the Singularity. I love gaming on the cutting edge and refuse to accept any compromises. Proud member of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race. Long Live SHIO!!!!

How dare you. My numbers are irrefutable. I pulled them out of my ass and everything.

You found numbers in your ass? Since I don't find anything in mine...mabye i'm just not lucky..



Former something....

Wii - $5.83 and a Unicorn fart
360 - 150$ without fancy HDD
PS3 - 934$. The Nuclear Reactors needed to manufacture the Cell processors really hikes up the price.
