Which to Last the Longest? Nintendo Wii, Xbox 360 or Sony PS3

I say the PS3. I think that Sony has been doing pretty well for a new system and the momentum should build into next year and beyond. The Wii is a cleaver concept, but I think it is a fad that will likely fade as more and more people buy high definition televisions. The Wii will look like a relic on these types of sets. It’s not really fair to include the Wii into the comparison though as this system is not equivalent to either the PS3 or Xbox360. Wii will always attract those 12 and under but those that are into serious gaming will likely buy one of the higher end systems.

Sony fanboys: “the Xflop sux”
Xbox fanboys: “the Gaystation sux”
Wii fanboys : “HD graphics sux”
Me : Yawn…

The Nintendo Wii continue to release innovative and exciting content long after the other consoles.

I feel the Wii will peak like next year, you can’t play party games all the time

PS3 hasn’t reached it’s full potential yet, once game developers quit slacking off people will see how great it is.

360 is strong, won’t die soon.

All in all, i feel the Wii the sucks.

Hardware is irrelevent, its games that matter.

360 and Wii have the best, depending on what you are after.

Sony is playing catch up to both.

Why do the uninformed masses think that the Wii can only do party games ?
The Wii can do , will do and is doing hardcore games .
Maybe the X360 and PS3 need to ditch the hi-def graphics and 5.1 sound and spend that processing power insanely huge environments with massive amounts of enemies . That would be something the Wii just couldn’t do ( no mater how you slice it ).
Which will be the most popular ? That depends on how compelling the software is! Software sells hardware .The proof “PS2″ .
Most popular in 5 years ? What if the Wii is really just an ‘ramped up Gamecube’ . It makes a profit on every unit sold . Possibly a lot of the Wii R&D had already been done on the gamecube allowing Nintendo to focus some R&D elsewhere. What if Nintendo has only put a shelf life of less that 5 years on the Wii , and already have something up their sleeves . I’m sure thats a thought that scares the pants off Microsoft and Sony corp .

“I feel the Wii will peak like next year, you can’t play party games all the time”

Because that’s all the Wii has/will have.

Riiight….

The wii doesn’t support HD so its going to be difficult for it to be accepted in the future (as a serious gaming device). Unless of coarse they make a new Wii which is very possible.

The Xbox has been out for two years now and programmers have been telling me that they have used up 90% of its development potential.

The PS3 has Blue ray(The new DVD) Its also now a TIVO and according to developers it has only reached 30 percent of its potential. It also supports 1080P through HDMI.

This doesn’t mean that the ps3 is or will be more successful than the other systems but I do think it will be around longer.

First off, I was discussing the game aspect of the wii, not the hardware. Hardware wise, the system is fine; lacking of course, HD.

While lacking HD is not hurting it *too* much now, I agree that it will hurt more in 2-3 years. The great thing, however, is by then Nintendo could release Wii2 with HD, and even buying a Wii and Wii2 still costs less than a PS3.

Also, regarding PS3 and blue ray – big deal. HDDVD is still putting up a fight, and a new media disk is coming out. I forget the details, but the prototype of this disk holds 500gb.

No one except the hardcore wants a PS3 its too expensive and has the weakest lineup, and that won’t change, 360′s are too fragile and unpopular overseas, only Wii can win this war

Thing is, they’ll probably all last a long time. After all, the Xbox, the PS2 and the Gamecube all survived fairly well (the latter probably less). Most of the fans of the last-gen consoles will have stuck to the same next-gen console maker, so they’ll all have fans.

Specifically though, I don’t know. People seem to be hesitant to make PS3 games, and if that trend continues, then it will slowly lose its players (aside from the obstinate ones who insist that because they have the best graphics they have the best console. Which is a completely different argument). The Xbox360 is doing pretty well for itself, but once the Halo fad has died down, you have to wonder if it will continue to be so popular – Halo is one of the few “big” games out there which will make people buy the console just for that game. Whereas:

Nintendo have lots of them planned, and always do. Halo 16 would be boring if it ever came out, but Ninty keep doing innovative titles, which are nothing like their others. Plus, with the huge campaigning going on right now, they’re not likely to lose fans more than they gain them.

So, my vote goes for the Wii. Interesting discussion point though – I wonder if they’ll all survive to the next gen?

Forgive the book–it’s a great question and discussion…

It’s hard to predict which would last if we look at just the merits of the three existing consoles. While some point out the strong gameplay aspects of the Wii, from a hardware point-of-view, it has a lot of room for improvement. I think Nintendo will come out with the next console version the soonest, but it’s popularity will continue (similar to how the PS2 is still a popular machine).

I think we’ll see a few iterations of the consoles in the same way that the Gameboy (original, colored, advanced, sp, mini!) and DS (& lite) have had several mini-changes before truly transitioning to new versions. (But when do you count the next version of the “same” console as a new version?)

I think a new (and significant) contributor to console brand-loyalty, aside from the software titles, is vested social interest or commitment to a community. Having certain friends play the same console as us coupled with achievements, virtual spaces, or customizable characters (such as the 360 Achievements, Sony’s Virtual World, and Nintendo’s Miis) creates a very strong and appealing reason to stay with a particular console. Who would want to uproot and leave those friends and/or earned, collected, or customized features behind?!

If these community-based features are here to stay, I’m assumming the companies will NOT let them die with the current consoles. Achievements and Microsoft points will probably follow you to the next Xbox. Your Sony virtual avatar would be able to visit or at least move to your next Playstation. And Mii’s would be useable on the next Nintendo console* (Wii II?). [*I'm guessing here, what do you think?]

I think the question is then when would people be willing to buy the next console. Because of its higher price point, I’m thinking more people will hold onto the PS3 the longest before buying a REPLACEMENT console. With the Wii as the least expensive, I can see people replacing a Wii with a new Nintendo console earlier than replacing the 360 or PS3.

I think the Wii will last in terms of longevity not because of current owners, but because of future buyers. Current Wii players may not be interested in or possibly may not afford the more expensive consoles. But for those that can afford consoles at the higher cost, what’s to stop them from trying out the one that’s 1/2 as much at some point down the line?

A bias we have as console gamers is that we’re looking at the positives and negatives of the consoles, their software, and their features. I’m guessing we also skew towards a higher rate of having HD (a majority still don’t… for now). We forget that long after we get bored with a given console, people are still entering the market. Next holiday season Grandma will still buy that console for some lucky kid. A non-gamer may buy his or her first console (or first in a long time) a year or two from now.

So my guess is 1) the Wii will see it’s replacement sooner than the other consoles but 2) it will “last” in terms of popularity in that consumers will continue buying them because of the price point and possibly family-friendly branding.

A side prediction is that the communities, achievements, rewards, and such will forever be part of consoles. The question I have then, is which brand will last?

give the wii a chance, there hasnt been time for ANY planned dedicated hardcore games yet, remeber no one expected this level of populatity
i support the Wii based mainly on the fact that its innovation i enjoy in a game, graphics are a bonus but i have my pc for that, and in 2 years the pc will be capable of things the PS3 cant dream of, such is the rate of technalogical growth, the main point is that it is FAR cheaper to make a wii game, that simple, cheaper means less of a risk, less of a risk means developers can be unleashed a bit, its litrally ps1 vs n64 but reversed, the n64 was more powerful but the development costs were higher, simple really

Hey you! Arsehole! (Maggot, I’m talking to you!) Stop dissing the Wii! You hear! Leave the Wii alone! Please leave the Wii alone! She’s a human!!! (sob)

What the hell is wrong with you?! Shut up! Microsoft rules! You suck suckage! YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

The life of a console is actully dependant on when the first console giant puts in the idea about their new console – Then all the other companies follow suite.. a deadline is made for the new consoles thus lifespan can be judged that way..

So technically they will last aslong as each other.. The PS3 wont fly of the shelves until the price drops more.. and the wii has sold more because its so different. Not everyone can afford HD and a PS3 at the mo, which is why the good valued x360 has done better.

i think you all need a girlfriend

Blu ray is the future. There is a university in Germany that has managed to create a 1 terrabyte blu ray disc. Imagine the entire star wars series on one disc in full HD. The PS3 has a long life ahead of it.

PS3 will last long according to Sony..its planned to have a 10 year cycle, as opposed to the MS and NIntendo’s 5 year cycle.

There will be another Xbox and Wii2 out in a few years, and Sony will stil be schlepping the PS3 to their target audience..who would that be? The hardcore gamer…actually the hardest of the hardcore gamer…the type of 20 year old man who will actually go out a buy StarWars all-in-one TB disc.

^^ The king nerd.

Unfortunately there just arent enough mega nerds out there to support the PS3…and as said before the Xbox does not sell well overseas..just the US.

Wii will be the dominator because kids, parents, adults of all ages…girls, women- senior citizens are all intrigued. They are the by far the biggest target consumer group because they include EVERYone..everyone is buying a wii.

99 times out of a hundred- only younger men buy the other two systems. They just pigeonholed their target audience by making a hardcore system. MS is back tracking now to appeal to women..but its too late.

Sony wants HOME to invite a community for everyone to hang out in..but you and I both know the rooms will have ratios of 10,000 boys to 1 chick. Sausage fest PS3 style.

End of story.

Wii is fun, and xbox has Halo, but PS3 is still growing. one feature i LOVE about playstation is from the beggining it has used the same “format” for its games, a CD. this means all the loved psOne and ps2 games one might have can be played on the next gen. Just like a pc cd rom drives. the newest and greatest hdDVD burners will still play the regular cd format. PS3 has the future of bluray and the past of all previous games.

i have been a long time gamer for a long time, and before i bought the wii i played mostly pc type games, like halo, cod3, and all these first person shooters, THe xbox360, and ps3 are basically just a pc that sits under your television. Their nothing more to their games then just shooting people up. THe wii offer actually games were you think and have to find stuff. I just bought one and have been playing addictivly and can’t get off it. I got sick of the pc games they get old because they are all the same. It like the western of old. All the fps did was improve graphics and the environments looked great but they need to devolop more of their time to the fun of the game which nintendo is the master of. In fps like metroid their is still an element of gaming and not shooting.

A few things to consider. It is true that Sony is planning a 10 year life cycle but that says little about whether or not it will happen. Sony also planned a ten year life cycle with PSP; does anybody honestly think that it has that long of a shelf-life? The market–not Sony–will ultimately decide. Also, the price drop this summer boosted sales 60% in the US–but it still could sell more than 360. If all that’s preventing Sony from out-and-out dominance is its price, then the price needs to drop $300 before it’s overcoming Wii (which realistically will not happen before Wii is selling at $150).

I also hear the term “serious games” floating around. If you want an example of how “serious games” do not necessarily make a console the most successful, look at 360. It has, according to Microsoft, the highest consumer spending of this generation yet its life-to-date sales figures are pretty much the exact same as the original Xbox. As to Halo 3, well, the original Xbox had Halo as well. What Microsoft needs right now are some solid games that appeal outside the hardcore crowd.

Finally, (aside from the lie that Wii is only for party games) it is interesting that there is not a SINGLE argument against Wii that was not made against the DS. That fact alone does not prove that Wii will gain market leadership but it is food for thought. Ironically, what people tend to forget, as far as HD adoption is concerned, is that (just like Wii) the masses are going to be attracted to lower-end products. That is to say, not every HD purchased in the next few years is going to be 1080i.

There is no “end of story” here it all. Market leadership at this point is still an open question. Gamers should elevate this debate by leaving the practice of relying on one-liners and stereotypes behind.

I have a wii and all the other nintendo consoles, because i lvoe the games, how can wii be only for kids when it has games liek resident evil and scarface, pretty fanboyism that I think, the games for wii are amazing. I just had Super paper mario it’s very good.

All fanboyism aside… I own all three and I am going to say the PS3. The continued popularity of the PS2 is proof of that. They are not even making games for the original Xbox OR the Gamecube (past consoles from the Playstation’s competitors). The PS2 is still going strong, and like the PS3, had a slow and critical start. Reading all the negative things about the PS3 mostly comes from people who dont actually own this reliable peice of hardware. My word to them is “don’t knock it until you tried it.. or can afford it”.
/end

hmm yes i think the Wii can, and is doing hardcore games but at the moment overall its lacking good games as well, i havent touched my wii for at least 2 months, alot of good games coming out but i dont think with gameplay alone it can keep up to the standards 5 years later or even 3 years later, we all know how fast technology is advancing, the wii has been using the point and click with the wii remote much better than the motion sensing, the motion is getting boring but i know it has great potential, they just have to use it instead of setting preset moves or combos it seems kinda pointless
If the ps3 doesn’t collapse and keeps growing at a steady rate there should be a time where it explodes with alot of breakthrough games, but yeah its just got to keep steady and grow right now, oh and maybe a price cut =D

As we can see, there are millions of people without nex-gen consoles yet. My guess is sony was the biggest winner last gen will lose some share for MS & Nintendo but for sure who had playstation before will have playstation again. In the long run PS will win again but maybe with fewer shares. I don’t think there are many PS owners leaving for MS or nintendo, the numbers speak for itself, MS Xbox 360 is doing just like the original Xbox did and probably who had gamecube will have Wii’s and there is a whole new market for wii from Older & woman. But in the end sony will have the biggest share again. I own a PS3 and Wii and I can say that I had fun with Wii for the first 2 weeks only, after that was so boring and now they coming with wiifit? I mean… What?? The only reason that I bought Wii was for Resident evil games from gamecube and 1 for Wii coming out this year. VC games are nice touch but I wish they had the same quality as the original cartridges, for example I own a Super Nintendo and I tough “I can buy these VC games and sell my cartridges”. I bought Donkey Kong Country 1 & 2 and when I played the graphics was a disaster compare to the cartridges, I’ll give you 1 advice, DO NOT SELL YOUR SNES SYSTEM OR GAMES IN FAVOR OF VC GAMES!!

Xbox 360 will probably keep declining in sales unless Microsoft does something drastic to get non-gamers’ attention and gamers overseas because at the tokyo game show, practically no one was excited for any 360 game title.

If the PS3 developers learn how to use the hardware to its’ full potential and make price cuts(without losing money), then Sony will most likely catch to the Wii over the course of a year or two.

I personally see Nintendo staying Number one as long as the developers keep coming with fresh ideas and more hardcore games.

So my bet is Nintendo Wii, if they keep the pace rolling which by the look at this holiday season’s game lineup(Super Smash Bros Brawl, Resident Evil:The Umbrella Chronicles, Super Mario Galaxy) they show no signs on the stalling of good games.

anyone else noticed that alot of Xbox 360 fanboys jump right in with BIG CAPITAL LETTERS and insult every1 else? lol

1. Wii- I don’t know about other folks but the nintendo wii is BORING and i am tired of seeing those old ass games like Mario which is old as I am and i’m 20. Zelda, metroid prime, mario, ugh. But it still seems to grab attention…YAWN….i’ve played the wii and i think the wii SUCKS!!! I just want to sit down and enjoy my games, not having to flop my arms around everywhere it tires the body but with 360 and ps3 you actually can sit down and enjoy them.

2. 360 will last a long time probably not as long as ps3 but halo is the only thing happening for them and sales numbers show it and all microsoft has to do is sale 1 halo per year and it will sell hard, sad, but true.

3.Ps3 will last the most because not even being a year old the ps3 is already a more diverse system than the 360 in terms of games. It has Blu-ray which is outselling the hd-dvd’s by a ratio of 3:1. Ps3 has a pretty decent line-up for the holiday and would beat the 360 if the 360 didn’t have halo (If xbox didn’t have halo then microsoft wouldn’t have a gaming franchise) Also it helps that the ps3 doesn’t have such a massive failure rate as the 360 (Yes 32% is massive) So to a conclusion things look great for the ps3 to survive the longest, probably an 8 to 10 year lifespan

yes sit down and enjoy and being a lazy ass, where the wii makes you stand up and get in there

The Wii is okay but the games that try to compete with 360 or ps3 are kinda lame. i can only play those games for a few before i shrug and wonder whats next? call of duty sucked on there madden might be decent but i dont want to actually throw the remote to pass the ball. Scarface on the Wii is edited ever so slightly games like manhunt 2 will never make it on the wii. i agree with some others mario party can only be so fun the 35 time playing it. cooking mama is only so fun playing it the 5th time. mario games are fun but i can download those free on to my pc so i dont think that angle is going to hook me. i played the Zelda series and it wasn’t as fun as some of the DS series games. residence evil might actually be the only game that snags me but as for paper mario, cooking mama, the little ER game, wii sports, wii games those just arent that cool. i think i am personally liking the way Xbox and PC games are uniting and there is no way in h3ll that the wii will have a MMRPG game to hook me. sure its fun and the tiger woods games proably be the best type of sports game on the wii but i just seem to enjoy the more mature games. Am i going to get a Wii? yeah but i donno how often i will play the little guy.

ok, i have owned all three new systems and heres what happened. (i am 20 and very active in sports, cars, girls, etc, etc.) the 360 came out first so i got it, because i didnt want to wait another year for the ps3, big mistake, it had absolutely NO GAMES that the PS2 didnt have except for oblivion, which was out on PC anyway, so after i spent upwards of 2gs on 2 different 360s, (cause at that time the warranty was only 3 months, and they lasted about 5 or 6) 6 games, and 3 more wireless controllers, i was not impressed. 33% failure rate, ouch. wish they would have started off with the damn 3 year warranty. they will come out with a new xbox in about 2 years. or less. so no, for the 3shity.

then i got a wii. ya, it was fun playin with like my sister, mom and whatnot, but once i figured out that i could do the same thing sitting down that i could standing up with the controller. (it was not accurate at all, i would swing on wii sports, and it half-way look like thats the way i swung, but once i sat down and just flicked my wrist it did the same damn thing!!!) give it to nintendo to use the public’s ignorance of HD and low price point to its advantage. but once people have figured this out, nintendo will have to pull something else outta its but. im sooo disapointed with the wii. i expect it to be around for MAYBE another 2 years.

then i bought the PS3. of course, like the 360, it really didnt have much for games, except for resistance which didnt last long, and Motorstorm. but its extra features still amazed me for the price. i cant complain about spending 500 bucks on a system that does everything and more that my 1400 dollar laptop does. the motions sensing controller is a little underutillized, and the rumble is sorely needed (though its coming soon!!!) but i love the playstation controller, and its easy to pick it up, and not have to learn a controller all over again, unlike nintendo. also i dont have to worry about it dieing on me like my 360s did. (my original Playstation and PS2 still play like new!!) right now my psp is getting a pretty good work out, but once Gran Turismo 5, MGS4, and FF13 come out, i dont think ill be able to break away from it. so i think the ps3 will at least be around as long as the PS2.

I would say the PS3. It has started life the same as the previous 2 PlayStation’s did and Sony are going to support it for a long time. The PS1 was on sale for about 12 years, the PS2 has now reached 7 and is still I believe the second biggest selling console this year and I have no doubt the PS3 will be around for equally as long.

i say ps3.Even though i have a 360,i also have a 60 GB ps3 sitting in my closet.Its unopened .I think my 360 will eventually get the red rings of death,and so will all other 360′s.Then i will mov on to the ps3 see how that works for me.

As an active person (work out hard twice a week, play lacrosse, play pickup games of whatever with my friends, etc.) I don’t mind getting up and moving around. I don’t mind moving around till I can hardly stand. I hate the Wii. I aquired one for a friend, and after playing a grand total of four hours, I’ll never touch it again. Now that being said, I enjoy the 360 a heck of a lot, buy I enjoy my PS3 even more. While the 360 does have a lot of games, not a lot of them are very good, and the ones that are don’t have a ton of replay value. In fact, the only game that gets played a lot is COD4, and that’s only on multiplayer. Now, the PS3 gets a LOT of play time, and the few games we do have get a heck of a lot of play time, both on and offline. So that’s my story. And I’m sticking to it.

ps3 and xbox have rock band.

wii have *yawn* Guitar hero.

ps3 has blueray the new standard for Movies.

Wii is not next gen it is last gen technology.

I have both wii and ps3. anything the wii can do the ps3 can do better.

last but not least. nintendo should make only games. their console is a big ass joke they played on us. (gamecube with u-force and power glove technology, repacked and resold as next-gen)

nintendo have never included anything other then a gaming platform. what i mean by this is. that is all the nintendo’s will be a gameing console. where as the ps3 is a home entertainment platform. movies, music, internet(i know wii has a browser, but they make you pay for it) and pictures.

So one said that the xbox and ps3 are just computers that sit under your tv.

let me correct you. they are Semi-Super computers that are under $1000 that sit under your tv.

I agree. I think that when games become too real, they lose attraction to some people. Many are looking to escape from reality, and want a fun game. Especially one that can get them to move a little, and encourage family or group participation.

I loved Wolfenstein 3D, Doom, Quake, etc. but when Return to Castle Wolfenstein came along, I couldn’t get into killing the luscious Nazi women killers. Is it just me? I am 62 now, maybe that has something to do with it. We have had everythin from Pong, to Coleco to Intellevision etc, and enjoyed all of them.

Great graphics are wonderful, but I no longer want to invest the time in learning complicated controller tricks. I have an 8 year old grand daughter, and she loves her PSP. We are still looking for a Wii at regular price without bunch of games we don’t want.

I reallly think the wii is going to last for at least 4 more years or 6, why, well development of course is very cheap but of course it all comes down to control and power, the wii can only do so much like make certain landscape and characters shown on screen at the same time, the controls have to be configure, for players to be able to play in a very easy way so that everything can be natural extensions of your body. They aren’t AWESOME games on this console unless of course Metroid Prime, Zelda, and Mario. Of course this games are meant to be played by 12 and under, but still this games are awesome but of course lots of the games are of Mario, mario party, mario Kart,ETC.. It gets lame.

The XBOX 360 is a very great machine, everything is on the palm of your hands you just connect it to an outlet and put a game,connect HD cables so at least games will look awesome, and start playing but of course be ready to have ethernet so that the whole package can be ready. OF course it comes out with fault games are at least SIX hours or 12 the most, they are based in first-person shooters, there are games that are also in the ps3, exept gears of war, bio shock, and Project gotham. It also overheats alot, i was once in my cousins house and the fans were super loud and the dvd rom started whirring and basically its super loud.

The ps3 is the one that I bought basically with the success of games and hardware of the ps2, theres no limitations in updates and the abbility to last longer than any other console, it comes with blue-ray, which by the way the movies on blue-ray and dvd arent that much even running at 1080P the games of course look out of this world they do look way much better than the xbox 360′s. Resistance, Lair, and heavenly sword, Uncharted, Assasins Creed, look awesome. The games are fairly longer, exept of course heavenly sword(six hours). Of course developers have more freedom to make games since technology aint there yet to reach the full capacity of the ps3′s cell broadband engine, theres lots of stuff happening at the same time, lots of buildings no lagging its awesome, online is free and there are lots of players.

If you are going to buy a console buy a ps3 its worth it… it doesnt overheat I had it on for 3 days straight and hasnt burn out.

In terms of market success, creativity, innovation and gameplay have always been more important than graphics and sound. By this measure, the Wii has added a new dimension to gameplay that has nurtured a whole new kind of game, and with it, a whole new kind of customer. Wii-fit has soccer moms doing yoga and golfing dads practising their swings and school kids playing paper mario, all in the same household. And who knows what kind of games we can expext in the future? Fishing games? Cooking games? Lightsabre games? This alone makes it obvious (to me anyway) that Wii will long outlast the other two consoles. And not only that, but how long before MS and Sony comes out with their own version of a Wii-like console? The sales speak for themselves, and MS and Sony are businesses, after all…

I think PS3 and Xbox 360.

Nintendo is for kids,family and some adults that love to have fun
This isn’t for gamers who play hardcore since it doesn’t have most of the good shooter games, Free world ,and stealth games (ex:COD4,COD5,MGS4,GTA4,Halo 3,Splinter Cell)

PLUS Xbox has Xbox Live which is the best online gaming service around.
PlayStation Network is alright.
but the Wii was meant to be a be together and play toegether system why doesn’t it have an online service that’s as good as Live .

SO DON’T SAY PS3 AND 360 ARE ALL IN FOR GRAPHICS THEY ARE ALSO IN FOR GAMEPLAY (DUH…GTA4,Mercenaries 2,Gears Of Wars 2)

most likely the ps3 will last the longest just on the fact that it is more than a game console. you can surf the web watch a blue ray movie or listen to music. the vesatility of the ps3 makes it the better choice.

I have one comment for the guy 2 posts up you’re such a chump… All you’re listing is gun games and simply put the wii is better at that (control wise).
The PS3 has the greatest potential and will outlast the 360.
Those who think the 360 is a bargain are ignoramuses
360:200$+Wireless:100$+Harddrive:50$+HDDVD(lost the new media war):150$+Internet:60$/year and less brute power than the PS3′s all inclusive 80Gb for 400$

The wii is most versatile and every title I put in the Wii surprises me. The gaming is much more entertaining, stimulating and brings forth something new to the table EACH time.

Nintendo is the innovator in this industry.
SNES was the leader in 16-bit
N64 brought us great 3D and THE THUMBStICK
gamecube was just a stepping stone
while the WII is the ultimate for gamers, it has titles with which other platforms don’t stand a chance and they’re constantly innovating.
Wii is the most profitable and is shortly coming up with a new sensor system which will improve gameplay further.
From the profits Wii is likely to be the first to innovate further into what some would call a Wii2

The PS3 will last longest but Nintendo will stay ahead.
When graphics become an inevitable NEED Nintendo will bring it to us.
You can’t mess with Nintendo:
Their Wii sells more than both others and their financial statements give them a lead on the others… more money for R&D

The Wii is light years ahead of the XBOX 360 and PS3 as far as hardware stability is concerned. There are currently no console-bricking software updates and RRoDs to deal with. Hear that, Sony and Microsoft? Nintendo consoles are built to last and the games are enough to win over general gamers. You don’t have to be a hardcore gamer to have fun, but even the Wii has third-party games (such as Resident Evil 4 and Mortal Kombat Armageddon) that satisfy hardcore gamers. As long as the Wii continues to support groundbreaking party games like Guitar Hero, it will outlast the others.

The wii simpley because it is the best and always will be i hate when people say it is for the kiddies i have been playing games for nearly 15 years and this consul has some of the best how many of you x box fans have played super mario galaxy it is fun and the gameplay is excellent therefor the wii will be around in years to come and will sell the baet!!!!

Incredibly great information, I liked looking through it. It had many fantastic details. I’m bookmarking this web page.
