Microsoft doesn't really bring much to the table. Sure they got XBL, and they are really well known for that. But when the 360 came out it was just a step up from the XBox. The graphics were a step up, and XBL was redone. But that's about it. One of the 360's downsides was it isn't able to play all the XBox games. The GBA could play GB and GBC games, the Wii will be able to play all th GC games. The PS2 could play all the PS games, and I think the PS3 will be able to play all the PS2 and PS games. So Microsoft is sitting there saying "Well you won't be able to play all your XBox games, at least not right off the bat.". That doesn't look all that good for them. The PS3 has this big price tag with it. You could be paying $700 dollars for a PS3 and a game (since they said games will be from $50 to $100 dollars). Yea it has Blu-Ray! Good for them, not like I'll use it. The DVD player in the PS2 was the best idea Sony had (the reason why I got my PS2 was because I wanted a DVD player in my room). But Blu-Ray is stupid, it's too far ahead of it's time and it's too costly. The reason why that price tag is so high is because of the $1000 Blu-Ray player in it. Not only will they be losing lots of money on the PS3 but they'll not be making many sells. How many here really has the money to buy a $600 dollar game system (I'm getting one, but I have no clue how I'm going to dig up $600 bucks)? Sony might have lots of fanboys, but not all them fanboys will have the money to buy a PS3. The Wii, the unknown system out there. We know it'll come out Q4, we know it's going to be below $250 dollars, we know about the controller, we know you can play old games (NES, SNES, Sega Gen etc). That's about it. Up till a few weeks ago we found out what's under that flap on the front. We don't know what games will be on it, we don't know everything about the Virtual Console, we don't know everything about the controller, we don't know how much the games will be, we don't know how it's online thing will be, we don't know when it'll be out, heck we don't even know the price of it. But what we do know is what gets us. Being able to play old games (this is good for some of the newer gamers, and I'd love to play some of the games I played on my SNES), the price being lower then the PS3 and the 360, and that strange new controller. It's people asking "What is up with this controller?" that's going to buy one and see what it's all about. And the price is low enough where people will buy a PS3/360 and a Wii. Most don't have the money to buy all three, but buying one of them costly systems and the Wii will be the way to go for most. If Nintendo doesn't screw up and do something really stupid then I think they have a big big chance in taking the market away from Sony and Microsoft. And if that happens then Nintendo will be back on the top of the food chain again.
