What do you people think of the new Nintendo Wii game console, and how well or bad does it compare to the Sony Playstation 3 and the Microsoft Xbox 360?

I have all the machines. You know what I love my wii. I mean come on it keeps me entertained for hours with its interactive controller. Plus it makes me a little more active then just pressing buttons. The first day I got the machine my arm felt sore from playing so much.

Hehe... I was thinking that the other day, that the only reason I see someone not liking the wii is if they're just too lazy to get up and move instead of pressing some buttons. Plus what about if you're playing multi-player games.. you'd need some good space in that room in order for everyone to play comfortably, and a big screen too so everyone can see. Either way, this console isn't for the fatties.

I have the Ps2, the 360, and the Wii. Don't have the PS3. The Wii is my favorite at the moment! It's so much fun. The graphics of course aren't as good, but it's definately different from any console I've ever played.

That's what I'm talking about. I want one badly. Hey are you a guy or a girl? Have you played the Zelda game yet?

I'm not a gaming buff in the least, but my brother is and he says that PS3 is not good at all. He likes XBOX 360 and wants Wii. He's a pretty good judge of these things, so I would have to go with him on this.

I think your brother might be right about this. I mean at $600, the Sony Playstation 3 is overly priced. I'm sure it'll be good, but it's still too much for the average person to pay.

Well you're right about that, especially with the whole " nunchuck " controllers. I think it will be a big hit. I'm hoping the new Zelda game will kick some major buttocks.

Sony said that the PS3 was going to be a generational leap, but it doesnt seem like that to me. Look at the graphics compared to the Xbox 360, its basically the same thing. The SIXAXIS controller bugs out on its own, plus you have to keep plugin it in to the system and take it out to use the wireless feature everytime you turn it on. Plus it has 8 freaking CPU's but it cannot multitask, not even custom tracks.
The Wii seemd really fun, but you need money inorder to actually have fun with it. The batteries only last 20 hours max. The classic controller connects to the Wii-mote and contribute to the battery power life. The graphics arent that much big, but u can expect that from Nintendo. They could have atleast made it a little more detailed, only a handfull of games look clean. Most of the games are inresponsive to the wii-mote and that makes the game boring. There is no online multiplayer and wont be any for quite sum time.
The 360 has been out for a year now and i've seen tons of games that are good for it. personally I would get that if you do not own it already. The controller is better, the graphics are clean, the frame rate is generally good for most games, good backwards compatibility, the best online multiplayer availible, and what more can I say. The Xbox 360 has my vote.

Nintendo wii will be the major player in the game console market.It has a new technology and a new form of playing games.The ps 3 is just better graphics and not much improvements from the ps2.and i don't like xbox.
