Nintendo Wii

One word. "Unbeleivable". Im not a gamer, and honestly I dont play games. The only game I ever play is Madden. I bought the 360 the day it came out and I played it the 1st day and it has been picking up dust ever since. So the PS3 and the Wii come out. I have to words for the PS3, "Blow Me". No way in hell will I ever pay $600 for a system I know I wont even use. Than here is the Wii, a measly $250. Now $250 is alot of money but compared to PS3 and 360 it's nothin. I called around and I finally found a store that actually had 2 in stock beleive it or not. Ive been playing it the last couple of hours and as I said before "Unbeleivable". I think I'm just so amazed because I'm not a game person and for me to like almost every game I have played so far is unreal for me. All the games feel like you are actually in the game. I was playing Tennis and I'm actually moving back and forth moving my arm back to hit the ball. This system is a blast. I also just now found out that you can download every Nintendo game for free and play them on the Wii. Time for some Super Punch-Out baby. Anyways just wanted to tell ya....Wi......definately worth the money and 360 and PS3 can suck it.

I agree about the PS3, but I really like the 360. I'll probably end up getting a Wii, but I was disappointed with the shitty graphics on the Wii. Anyway, what games have you played on Wii?
See now I'm the type where I dont care about graphics UNLESS the are phenominal and high-tech, just down right crazy. Ive played 360 and PS3 and in my opinion the graphics suck. Considering that the graphics are not that great I'm gonna Wii it up. No, the graphics in Wii are no where near like 360 or PS3 the gameplay is great. 99% gameplay and 1% graphics for me. I could care less about graphics if the gameplay is good. I have played Call Of Duty 3, Madden 2007, Tennis, Bowling, and Far Cry.

Bowling on the Wii is incredible...
Step brother and my family both got a Wii and EVERYBODY (even people you couldn't handle Mario) loves it. It's just a lot of fun.

I was a little concerned about the launch titles. They tend to gravitate toward T and E ratings, right? Zelda of course looks fantastic, but does it look like it will be a good landscape for T and M rated games? Not that the gore is everything, mind you, but there have been quite a few M rated stand outs and it seems like dodging M rated games might be a bad decision for developer support.

Nintendo has a track record of trying to keep things family friendly. They had the "watered down" versions of Mortal Kombat, remember.

That being said, they have created a platform that screams for some m-rated games.... could you imagine a game where you play a slasher on that thing?

I want to get a Wii but since I heard it didn't have any online play that pretty much killed it for me.Plus i've heard about alot of people getting injured playing the game from all the swinging of the arms and hitting fans and bulbs and what not.
I have to say I'm pretty satidfied with my 360 and will be for quite some time.
