Wii is just what I want. A new console that plays old games and at a decent price. Plus, Nintendo drops their prices quicker than Sony/MS. You can get a GC for $80 new these days while a PS2 costs $130. Plus, the games are BETTER. Who cares if MS/Sony look a little prettier. 95% of people are still playing on 24" composite TVs anyway. cbmeeks http://www.codershangout.com I’ve been a fanboy of Nintendo since the beginning…even playing their games on my trusty Colecovision.

You need to get some medication pal, as they are better then Gamecubes. The guy was smiling when he was playing, how often do you see people smiling whilst gaming nowadays? Rarely. The Price isn't high either. It is lower than Gamecube's launch price was going to be, and it plays gamecube games, SNES,NES,TurboGrafx,Sega Megadrive and N64 Games. I might of bought the console for those things alone. An NES cost around £100 now anyway. Your saying the graphics are the same as The PS1’s?

They are gorgeous. I would rather have the graphics Wii presents anyway, and have a quieter, more efficient console with far, far shorter loading times. Have you seen the graphics of Red Steel?

And sure they're asking a lot of money for it, but they're not asking as much as Microsoft or Sony.
