Wii
Crappy storage solution
Too few VC-games released per month
Not taken seriously by 3rd parties

 

I would add the crappy online without voice chat (I don't think we'll have it for the older games) together with your list to make my list.

  • ps3.......... large installs, large updates
  • 360.......... no free online play, not to many interesting games
  • wII........... no games


...not much time to post anymore, used to be awesome on here really good fond memories from VGchartz...

PSN: Skeeuk - XBL: SkeeUK - PC: Skeeuk

really miss the VGCHARTZ of 2008 - 2013...

The 360- I absolutely DREAD having to call 1-800-4myxbox. Once was for RROD and about 4 other times for various Live, Microsoft points and account issues. I have yet to have a positive experience with these fucks, at least in under an hour on the phone. I'm not saying that the issues I've ever had were all because of my 360 but either way, I've ended up on the phone painstakingly dealing with "customer service".  Anyone ever hear of George Carlin's take on custome service? Well it's been all bullshit for me unfortunately. The scripts that they work off of..." Let me check my resources, could you please hold" fucking make me sick. And seriously, I have no problems with people of diffferent nationalities and English as a second language (my mother is 100% Panamanian) but this has only added to the problem for me. Either I can hardly understand them or vica versa. I could go on but I won't. This has been my only problem with owning the 360 that I would call complaint worthy. Crummy D-pad? LOL!



Wii:

  • No universal FC system. Mario Kart got it right with the ability to send invites to people on your System FC list, but it isn't a standard.
  • Costs me too much money with all the games I buy for it

DSLite:

  • My thumb gets cramped with the d-pad, but other than that I love it.

PS3:

  • Mandatory installs & patches. I loved consoles because they loaded fast, not because they made you install things. One of the many reasons I got a N64 over the PS1 was because of the lack of load times.
  • Inconsistent button meanings. I get confused all the times when trying to back out of menus (granted, this is the devs fault, but is due to no common scheme set by Sony)
  • Games being $10 more than what I'm used to paying. I can't bring myself to buy a PS3 game new at full price even though it is only a $10 difference.
  • No backwards compatibility for PS2 games, which is a shame, as I have a few, but no PS2.



If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

PS3: No cross game invites, no Private chats across games/movies/ w.e, and the low amount of PS1 titles on the PSN.

Thats about it

360 - Nothing to complain about - RROD'ed on me 4 times and now lies dead in a dumpster

PS3 - Cost of games. Would love $39.99 (Most titles) & $49.99 (AAA titles) games




ps3: sometimes when typing a message in in game xmb it freezes, have to quit game...
other than that its excellent

Wii Friend Codes. I'd be fine if I only had to enter one code, but adding one code for every online game is retarded.

This for me too. I would also add that the flash drive is to small......2GB would have been fine for me.



Wii: i don't like it much period. Games are boring unless you have a group of people.

360: I don't like the NXE and I don't like the 4-6 week wait for system replacement. Other than that perfectly content.

ps3: delays are annoying on games, home is kinda lame, online is average, battery ife of controller is bad after 6 months.



wii - no decent racing games and not the influx of fps it deserves

ps3 - how much it cost me!

360 - nothing yet, just got it
