Wii vs. Vii: Will the Chinese version be as good as Nintendo’s

For those of you who thought that Nintendo had the market cornered with their Wii video games console, it seems as if China has other ideas. We told you earlier this month that the Chinese plan to produce a fake Wii called the Vii.

I know that I had a bit of a moan on that post about the Vii, about it being cheap and nasty before I had a chance to see it in person, so I would like to say sorry. Someone commented on my post that “All they need is a small percentage to make their product a good competition against not only Wii, but Xbox and PS3”. And they are right there as China is a big country so they do not have to worry about the rest of the world buying the Vii.

The thing is mo matter what people say, Nintendo have more money and a bigger fan base so it does not matter how good the Vii will be, the Wii will not have to worry about the imitation games console.

  • suckyourself

    Wow, i’m not surpised, why is anyone really? i mean for crying out loud the Wii is made in CHINA! how hard could it be for them to look at how to make it when the parts are put together right there.
    as for them ripping it off…might as well right? they rip off everything else and they DON’T make it better…hence it being made there.
    i can’t wait to read the headlines when one of those Vii’s catchs fire or blows up or something.
    what are they going to make a chinese mario too? that’d be a hoot

  • wii is the best

    wii is better than the vii
