@Rol I forgot. I love having my wii collect dust. Its the best part about it. Too bad it doesn't happen often because I'm playing it.

My Wii's always collecting dust, no matter what I do. What do you do differently? Do you dust it as you play, or what?

 



I agree with all those points. The PS3 is much better. Its a shame people buy the wii only because its cheaper.

If you add controllers for the Wii, don't you have to add extra controllers for PS3 (or other consoles)? I don't see how number 5 works.

You'll need to have a look see in this thread to understand it.

When I play I waggle so much the strap on my controller breaks and hits my wii knocking it over and the dust falls off as well. Actually my Wii surprisingly doesn't get dusty. Actually none of my consoles get dusty. Maybe it just has to do with the stand I keep them in protecting them from dust.

While the Wii only offers two basic functions (playing games and collecting dust, more commonly the latter one of these two is used), the PS3 is a magnificent media center for the living room and is also the only console with the ability to play Bluray movies. This makes the Wii look like a toy in comparison which doesn't stand a chance against the Sony PlayStation 3 Interactive Multimedia 4D True Next Generation Computer Entertainment and Gaming System.


4. PSN - Sony's online service is clearly superior to Nintendo's (if you can call theirs even a service). Aside from the overpriced ROM dump called Virtual Console which offers a good game here and there, Nintendo hasn't much to offer and the online play in their games requires friend codes and is laggy (you know what I am talking about if you ever played SSBB against someone from freaking Mexico). Sony's PSN gives you pretty much all you want from an online service and on top of that, it is free.


 

1. Is it possible to play games on the Wii?!!

2. Hey hey, more respect to Mexico

@BMaker11 So people buy the console to look at it? I'm pretty sure people buy a Video Game console to play Video Games. If it doesn't sell because it has Video Games that the people like what does it sell for?

I say this because I stand by the belief of, if you think the likes of Mario Kart, Super Mario, Metroid, etc are making it sell, then why did the GCN and N64 do so poorly? Those games obviously aren't the driving force behind people buying the Wii, otherwise the two previous Nintendo console would have had a killing in sales as the Wii is having now

 



PS3 better than Wii? coming from Rol? head explodes :P
