Think about it. Recently, everybody has been bashing on the other system's faultiness. Cows seem to never give up the 360's early failure, and the lems have recently been bashing the PS3's failure rate. ( An.....extensive thread just came out showing how bad the PS3's survivability rate really is.) But the one thing you never hear about is the any Wiis dying. Sure, mine has frozen up on me a couple times, but it hasn't been permenantly damaged in any way. Compared to any other system's fatality rate, the Wii has been doing outstanding. Maybe it has to due with the Wiis relatively simple innards, or something of that matter. I think this is an accurate representation of the Wii vs. the other two. The Wii's mechanics may be worse by a lot, but what it does have, it is able to manage with what it has.
Yeah, Nintendo never really has probelms with their production. Must have some solid Quality Management Control people on staff there (that's my major BTW that's why I mention it lol).

ok, so i'll drive a ferrari and you drive a honda. we'll see which breaks down first. i mean, c'mon here, its apples to oranges. when you're doing things at limits, you're bound to give up some reliability. not to mention that they've had about 8 years or so to work with the same basic machine. if it wasnt realiable that would be pathetic.
Well the reason the wii is doing well is because of the controller. There are Some people like me that is tierd of the same controller over and over again. if the wii did not have that Motion controller and use the same controller I would have brought and Xbox of the wii and I would Just stick with the Gamecube instead and have the Xbox with it.

hi my wii just died.

For the extra you paid to get that Ferrari, you should expect to get some extra reliability. If you're paying $350 more for a system, you should expect just as much reliability, if not more.

Well my wii had a problem it had black spot all over the screen (and it was the wii) but Nintendo shiped me a brand new one and when i got it a shiped back the old one. They were really nice and it was only on the phone for like 10 mintues some of the best costermer services ever.Â

If your warranty is still "on" everyone does this, heck if your console breaks before the normal 90 day warranty, you can cahnge it in 5 min without a single question, all you need is go to the shop where you bought it. I doubt nintendo would ship you a new Wii if it didn't have any warranty.
