Now don't get me wrong I really loved the Game Cube but now, of course, I have the very heavy, very black beast that is the PS3... it's like an 8-track player on speed, dangerous and so cool! I love the way its motor starts going when the way needs clearing... it's like a freakin' Mustang! But the Wii is too cheap... all I can remember about it is that the controller is long and slender and a bunch of old people were playing with it on television at the old folks home... stuff like bowling and pin the tail on the Donkey... which is cool if your with 3rd graders! But these days its about Violence and killin' stuff. That's what the kids like to see! Horror and Mayhem. I don't think kids these days are any more different that kids 10,000 years ago... they'd want the same stuff as well. But the wii is bound to slip a bit... I don't think Nintendo is putting enough money into thier games. Sony and Microsoft they spend billions to stay on top... but with nintendo they seem to worry too much about putting the money on the line.
