because nintendo knows that the only way in hell it can stay alive is to feed people bullshit like "we're revolutionizing the way people game"

honestly, nintendo saved the video game industry 20 years ago, we don't need a savior now.

yeah, 'cause that's what really matters when deciding on a game console. not graphics, not gameplay, not the games themselves... it's how good you look while playing them. yup, that's right. i'll bet you look gangsta sitting on your tired, not-feeling-well ass playing video games with your girly wrists, already. don't want to ruin that image. :ghey:

you keep asking the same question over and over. the answer's not gonna change. i honestly wish the wii did have better graphics, and better HD support. but i don't have an HDTV, i'm not gonna get one any time soon, and the same is true for most people. six years out of date is a bit harsh... maybe two or three years. :uhhok:

some more videos of the wiimote in action. these are from madden, showing how you don't have to stand up or wave your arms - you don't even have to go through the strenuous and injury-prone action of lifting your arm up :chuckles:

their video player blows. there might be some ads, and sometimes i had to reload a buncha times for the videos to play.

it's $249 not $599

we will see when it comes out, haters. When you spend your $600 on the PS3 alone, we will have a Wii and many games h:

Affordable price + different gameplay > PS3

graphics don't make the system more enjoyable.
