"I've played a Nintendo Wii. I don't see it as a competitor. It's more of an expensive niche game device. We're selling a lot of PlayStation 3s now and it's still the best way to buy a Blu-ray player.''

Does he mean that game devices are expensive and niche, and he only sees value in the PS3 for it's Blu-ray player?

"That's not a formula for success. Once you create the demand and aren't able to deliver, you create a situation where it stalls.''

Didn't seem to hurt the Wii nearly as badly though...

You know, you could drive to the Nintendo headquarters and suck a dick instead of trying to raise whatever pro-Wii propaganda you can by writing bullshit articles here.

Who the f**k wrote this article? An 8 year old?

Well, that would make sense considering the only people who buy/enjoy the Wii for more than 5 minutes are under the age of 10.

Admit it, the Wii is a joke. People like you make me sick, thinking the Wii is a real console. It's a cheap piece of s**t, no hard drive, s**tty graphics, no HDMI support, dildo controllers that are no fun to use (especially in the Wii's biggest hits, like SSBB for example...)

May I add that Nintendo's 3rd party support is f**king horrible at best. Name one damn good game on the Wii that doesn't have an italian plumber or a gay green fairy-elf.

The Wii deserves to be belittled. The only good game on it is Brawl, and even that's only fun to play with at least 4 people. If you have a Wii, and do not have at least 3 friends in your house at all times, the Wii absolutely sucks dick.

Now, I know that you Wii owners aren't used to criticism and meany talking like this, considering you're all toddlers, and especially since too many people think the Wii is the cutest little thing. People who love the Wii obviously haven't played a real console.

Totaly agree!

Imagine quoting someone high-up at Sony sayin'g something like that - Sony is bias and Stringer is a fool. Sony is scared and is running. The Wii is s**t an all and Microsoft will make a better controller which will rule at e3 no question. I agree with you man Sony and Nintnendo should just run away and stop crying like babies.

Youv'e got to be 8 to love the Wii and youv'e got to be a moran to go with sony! I am not biased and I own a DS and 360 so don't shout me down because if you love games you hate the wii and the PS3!

Damn, someone must have left the door to the creche open again and the stair-guard off.

Sorry Mr A... and others.
