he only decent games (16+ aimed at young adults) the wii gets are ports from the ps2.


im out these arguments coz there just like groundhog day, but you got to stop saying stuff liek this

the fact is that although you and other dont enjoy certain types of games, people gaming since the start love them, it slike rap, you may not enjoy an artist but if you have half a brian you knwo talent when you see it.

so stop tryna act like there isnt a huge fanbase for zelda, mario, metroid ect. coz the fanbase is one fo the biggest in gaming only 2 or 3 games come close to it n thats GTA and maybe MGS or tomb raider

but those games are all platforms (idk bout MGS to many rumors)

and it isnt only 12 and 13 year old, but on that note 12 and 13 year old love GTA and MGS game's aswell, but anywae, it isnt only that age groupe go look at E3 or conventions when these big games get reaveled its all young adults and older gamers, not little kids.

again im out fo this coz ive seen it played over 100 times already, but just stop being so close minded when ti comes to this shit

nah, u are a wiitard, I wasnt posting the picture for you :y: .

Ur just must be in a bad mood since the Wii is kickin ur PS3 in sales.

Ohh man that breaks my heart, coz I really care about sales lol.

i mean look at this. Everyone who wanted a wii has got one, and more are still buyin. But the poor saps who still want to spend money on a ps3 r strugglin and still hav not bought one and the thing has been out for months. Aint that sad?

When they do buy it though, they'll be playing games with superior A.I processing, immense story based games and will continue to play them for the next 4-5 years if not more.


Asprine E u r lookin for trouble arent u man. Dont embarasse urself. Thats fine insult me if it makes u feel happy, but i am not goin to retaliate. it aint worth it. I am not like u. So i will just play the role of the man and just leav this beef while u play the role of the pussy and continue insultin me if it makes u feel better. I cudnt careless of wat u think about me so say watever u please, thats fine. :y:

I have a 30 year old cousin who works in technology and knows a lot about consoles but PC by far. He told me that the Nintendo Wii is commercially the best and that the Play Station 3 is technically the best. I was a bit disappointed in not hearing anything to do with the Xbox 360 so I asked him if it was the best in gaming. He told me that during some time it has been, specially with Live, and that the games are better than the ones in Play Station 3 but that now PS3 is getting there and is starting to have games better than the 360. I asked him about bluray and he told me it's very insignificant. He said that PS3 can't be judged as in being better because of bluray. He told me it was nothing and that it's pretty much worthless even that he admits PS3 is best in graphics.

actually man its an oppinion which console is the best. The only reason ur cuz said that ps3 was technically the best was becuz of all the extra blueray stuff and graphics it has, but for me thats not all wat i look for in a console and really is not very important.

yeah same thats y i like wii, and wii, nintendo is the only place where u can get zelda, mario, Metroid, F-zero X and all of its other famous franchises. So thats the main reason y i stick with it and also of course becuz of its controller, and at this rate nintendo will win the console wars, but they r still battlin with microsoft and sony is far behind but still has a chance of catchin up. So we will just hav to see how things turn out in the end. But my bet is that nintendo will win.

I know the PS3 price drop is great man, thats y i posted it here, and no i do not work for nintendo, but do u work for sony? But thats the point man, even with the price drop, Sony r gettin kicked by Xbox360 an Wii so....

And listen up here, dont even mention psp, cuz sony lost the handheld console wars a long time ago man. Everywhere u go the DS outsells psp, more people in the world hav DS's than psp thats a fact. Like every month DS sells more than psp, it litteraly just crushed it. Check the attachment and u will no wat i mean kinda ironic huh, the psp is a lot stronger than the DS, just like how the PS3 is stronger than the Wii.

And now ur talkin about ps2.... sorry man but no matter how high the ps2 sales go, it will never win this console wars for sony, the ps3 has to win its own battle.

Fuck haha man this is funny. Dude dont even start talkin like that cuz the ps3 has sold the least outta all the three consoles so wat r u tryin ta say? We r improvin but we r still gettin our asses kicked?

sumtimes a console dusn't have to be better cause it sells more e.g. ps2
when da dreamcast and ps1 were in competition the ps1 smashed it but the dreamcast is betta and u shud check it out cause i have one and graphics r way betta (probably like the ps2 but a bit more cartoony) not only graphs but more

well ddrapid in away u r right but in a way u r wrong. Cuz any skilled electrician can stick all the latest technology and gamin equipment into a machine, it doesnt take skill, but its all about judgement, u hav to think if i do that will it really make more people buy it? How much will the price go up? What r our competitors prices? U hav to ask urself questions like that before u start doin things like that. To me, the price of a machine makes a big impact on how successful it is too along with the other accesories it has inside it. So when u look at which console is best to buy u gotta also look at the price of it aswell as the hardware. Thats is y i wud choose a 360 over a ps3. Both of them hav very similar games and graphics, but the ps3 is a lot more expensive, so y waste my money? Xbox 360 is better for me to buy. So the sales actually in away do decide which console is better in most/some cases i guess.
Sometimes the price is more important for the customers other times its the hardware. It all alters, but the sales help show which console was prefered the most.

I agree, that was why I was going to buy the Xbox 360 and not the Play Station 3.

LOL,relax, i give 2 shits about game companys, and on the handheld market, psp is far better for me, mp3,games,movies, what i want from it, the main reason the ds is outselling the psp in some areas is because.

POKEMON
Do you really think 10yr old give 2 shits what handheld their pokemon games get released on?, hell if the ngage got rights to pokemon, DS will fall on its ass.

Its all apealing software, hardware wise, psp >> Ds in every way, same for ps3 and wii, its a fight for games not the console itself, i doubt you would buy a wii if the ps3 was the same price, like someone said before here, its like comparing a Italian supercar and a cheap motorbike, wii is only selling due to its price, besides that its a very limited capable console.

follow your logic

pc gaming

764mb video card vs a 64mb video card

764mb videocard is $700
64mb videocard is $99

what do you think will sell more.

64mb will. but is it better?

No.


i used to love nintendo, super mario bros 3 on the NES was my first game ever, but in this day and age, we expect more from these consoles than just games.

in a few years it will only be ps3 & xbox360, and its the main reason i will not buy the wii, like the gamecube, It has to rely on first party games, no grand theft auto, no metal gear, No proper racing sim.Ive grown out of the colourfull world of Mario. Life cycle wont be very long, My Predictions.

And on ps3 & xbox360, im not a fan of halo,to futureistic, Forza is damn nice tho, not as good as Gran turismo but it does the job,i still play the original on my xbox, Ps3 has just so much more going for it that makes it very future proof, like the ps2 right now, i last read 118 million ps2 sales world wide, once the ps3 price goes down even more, all those ps2 owners will buy a ps3 so they can still play their old psone,ps2 games on a new console, it will no doubt carry on.

I like the design on the wii best, but it seems so dated,like a been there done that sorta thing,i almost bought one on launch,thank god i didnt and bought a ps3.

LOL,relax, i give 2 shits about game companys, and on the handheld market, psp is far better for me,

yeah for u but not for the millions of gamers around the world


the main reason the ds is outselling the psp in some areas is because.POKEMON


Correction the DS is out sellin the psp in ALL areas, and trust me it aint becuz of pokemon. Only a few pokemon games hav come out on the DS, and even IF that was a reason, it doesnt matter, its just a lame excuse. I cud also say the only reason y people buy ps3 is to get MGS4. :whistle:


Its all apealing software, hardware wise, psp >> Ds


To any true gamer its obviously the software that matter more than the hardware, by far.


wii is only selling due to its price, besides that its a very limited capable console.


Dude look man if the Wii was expensive as the ps3 it wud obviously hav all the technology it had and be just as good, but SELL LESS. Nintendo were smart, they knew if they put too much technology into the system it wud raise the price too much and prevent many people from buyin it. That is y they r kick sony's ass in the console wars.


764mb video card vs a 64mb video card

764mb videocard is $700
64mb videocard is $99

what do you think will sell more.


Dude i dont giv a fuck about memory. Y r u tellin me this? :confusion: Do i buy consoles to store, my stuff in or play games? Yeah u cud do both but if i wanted to strore a lot of stuff in my wii all i hav to do is buy a micro sd card with plenty of memory and stick it in. There done. But i really dont care much cuz i got a pc with plenty of space that i can stick as much shit in it as i want.


in a few years it will only be ps3 & xbox360


yeah right man, nintendo has been there the longest and they aint goin nowhere. Wat r u sayin? Nintendo is a pure gamin company. Its the last company that wud quit. Sony and Microsoft can easily and quietly leave without a problem since they also make other stuff, but nintendo?
NO WAY :smoking: .

i last read 118 million ps2 sales world wide, once the ps3 price goes down even more, all those ps2 owners will buy a ps3 so they can still play their old psone,ps2 games on a new console, it will no doubt carry on.


When technology increases and the ps3's price drops low and the sales start to compete with the wii, nintendo wud probably introduce a newer more powerful console to fully defeat the ps3, and then sony wud hav no choice but to make an even stronger machine, in a futal attempt to pass nintendo, but if they do that in the end the ps3 wud be one big failure. And then it wud be dajavu all over again, with Wii2 and PS4.


It has to rely on first party games, no grand theft auto, no metal gear, No proper racing sim.Ive grown out of the colourfull world of Mario. Life cycle wont be very long, My Predictions.


U see those r all your opinion, can say the same thing about the other consoles aswell. PS3 and Xbox 360 dont hav Mario Kart, Metroid, Zelda, F-Zero, Soul Calibur Legends, Red Steel, Project HAMMER, DISASTER DAY OF CRISIS, Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles and the Wii unique controller. There :tounge2: . Its all really a matter of opinion the games everybody likes most.
