Its PSWii for me, since ive got a few DS's and a PSP...

But on the real, you cant really compare Wii to 360 and PS3. Mainly because its in a completely different league. Not that im saying its better or worse than ps3/360, its just different. Nintendo had different goals in mind, Sony had different goals in mind, Microsoft had different goals in mind, but they all are dope pieces of technology. Especially PS3 and Wii. :hairy:

To you that controller is gay. Glad you've enjoyed playing the same thing for years. :bored:

im satisfied with the ps3's controller like i said its the easiest to use and navigate

With Wii you won't even have to update yourself. It saves you the trouble.

its not trouble for me

The PS3 controller can't match Wii's so don't even say it does.

it does, what makes wii's controller better?

:bored: You find so many of the same types of games on PS3. Whereas Wii has something for everyone.

PS3 has something for everyone also

What more does Ps3 have than what I said?

you can watch and listen to whatever media is on your computer on your ps3, and you can watch and listen to whatever media that is on your ps3 on your PSP from anywhere, also you can download psp games and gamesave to your ps3 harddrive and access them on your psp, theres so much shit i could list

And the shit with the controller is just a matter of opinion.

i agree with you, but i cant afford both the raw ps3 and games and the wii and games since im going to college next year, i could use gamefly but they only let me hold 2 games at a time, i agree with teremuto, but if i had to choose between wii and ps3 id choose ps3

Terumoto 09-16-06 01:18 AM

Shits dead cheap... If you can afford PS3, you can afford Wii.

btw, do you understand how the Wii controller works? You saying that its no better than the PS3 one is crazy.

Its very simple... It detects motion of EVERY axis possible. Rotation(X/Y/Z), movement(X/Y/Z), velocity(X/Y/Z). It has buttons on it for whatever, and the nunchaku attachment is like an analog stick on a thing that fits into your hand, and it has two triggers where youre middle and index finger would go.

In case you didnt know:
X = Across, both ways.
Y = Up and down.
Z = Back and forth.

So like... Basically, instead of shooting by aiming with two analog sticks, then pushing a button, you just point and shoot. In first person shooters, you walk with the nunchaku (like WASD on a PC) and navigate/shoot with the wii-mote (like the mouse on a PC).

Driving games? Turn the controller so its parallel with the ground and use it like a steering wheel.

etc. Not to mention theres a jack in the bottom so you can slot the controller into other devices. For example, you can slot the controller into a normal looking controller and just have a remote, wireless, average controller to play n64/gamecube/snes etc games. Or you could slot it into a steering wheel, a gun, whatever..

One of the games im most looking forward to, I forgot what it was called, but I think namco is making it. Its like an online fighting game. Except you use swords and whatever other weapons, and its first person. So like... You hold the controller like the handle of the sword, and if you move left slightly, the sword/arm on the screen moves left slightly. If you bring it up as if you were blocking, the sword on the screen does the same thing. If you stab, the sword on the screen stabs, if you twirl it around so does the sword on the screen... Basically whatever you do, the game doesn, in 100% real time. So like, that would be dope.

And zelda is looking ill too... Using the controller to whip a horse, aim and shoot a bow, row a boat, go fishing... etc.

Basically, the wii controller owns.

-TeamOne- 09-16-06 01:36 AM

dude, ps3's controller does that to, even if the wii controller owns the ps3 controller then thats the only thing it has on ps3, and if i can afford a ps3 i know i can afford a wii, but i cant afford to buy both of them, and buy games to both of them, like i said i would choose ps3 over wii, pluss wii's a dumb name

Kirk 09-16-06 01:37 AM

^Red Steel, I believe. I'm stoked on that shit too. Story is about a dude in the Yakuza gang or something along those lines?

P.s. - Go to the Nintendo site, teamone. It says you can there.

Kirk 09-16-06 01:40 AM

Wii's Internet Channel - This channel dramatically changes the relationship between a user's home, the television and the Internet. Users download the Opera browser with Wii Points. Then they can surf the Internet right from the comfort of their couch. They can do quick research while watching a television program ("What was that actor's name again?"), or book travel plans and shop during commercials. The service is compatible with Macromedia Flash and also runs AJAX software.

-TeamOne- 09-16-06 01:43 AM

ok thats one thing, but ps3 still owns it in

downloading all new levels/characters/storylines each month

being able to watch and listen to your media thats on your computer from your PS3, and your PSP(from anywhere ie. different city)

Kirk 09-16-06 01:47 AM

Man, Wii has access to the internet too, so why wouldn't there be updates as far as levels/characters/etc.? You don't know. I mean I'm sure PS3 is gonna be dope but give them some credit.

-TeamOne- 09-16-06 01:50 AM

i dont know you tell me, but i havent heard anything about it, i give them credit, jus not as much as PS3

Terumoto 09-16-06 01:55 AM

Yeah, there will be updates for Wii.

But yo, team, that connectivity shit is sony. Their goal is to make a powerful multimedia machine. They started with PSX, it could play music CDs and games. PS2 could play music, DVDs, had access to the net, and games. PSP had photos, music, movies, games, internet access. PS3 will have all those things, as well as unparalleled connectivity with home networks and other devices, bluray, internet access.

Nintendos goal is to make gaming systems. nes, games. snes, games, n64, games. Gamecube, games. Gameboy, games on the go, GBA, games on the go, DS, innovation in the way the user interacts with games. Wii, more innovation in the gaming department. And they brought the DS/Wii online because everybody loves to play online.

Thats why you cant compare them.

-TeamOne- 09-16-06 02:34 AM

yea but dude, every since playstation 2 came out, sony has been better, its not jut my opinion sony's sales were far superiorto gamecubes, the same wll be with the PS3 and Wii, based off what you just said sony has done nwhat nintendo has done, and more, so like i said if i had to choose, which i do, id pick PS3

Terumoto 09-16-06 03:37 AM

If youre basing it off of sales, then Nintendo's sales for the gameboy advanced obliterated the sales for the PS2. The sales for the DS obliterate the sales for the PSP.

That doesnt necessarily mean one is better than the other. Theyre different.

And wii will absolutely blow the 360 and PS3 out of the water when it comes to sales. Its very good value, cheap, so many people will buy one as well as a PS3/360, it seems as though its a VERY smart move by nintendo. They moved off in a different direction, and now they have something that sony/microsoft cant offer, at an affordable price, meaning people will want both.

-TeamOne- 09-16-06 04:59 AM

1.you cant compare handhelds to consoles

2. show me the proof of the ds having more sales than the psp

3. the wii is different, but as a gaming console in this generation, and taking advantage of the technology thatpeople use and want the PS3 is much better

Kirk 09-16-06 01:19 PM

Termuto is right though. They are trying to do different things.

As far as power, thats what ps3 goes for and thats what they got.

As far as something fucking new, innovative and creative. Wii.

SINISTER 09-16-06 02:05 PM

Am I The Only One Who Thinks The Game Cube Controller Is Fucked?????

Kirk 09-16-06 02:11 PM

Idk. Controls never bothered me for any system.

SINISTER 09-16-06 02:13 PM

Well it really dosent bother me as much as it annoys me...........

Kirk 09-16-06 02:20 PM

I think the only controller that ever bothered me was the Virtual Boy's controller. If any of you have played that before.

SINISTER 09-16-06 02:21 PM

No never played vitual boy, what year did it come out????

Kirk 09-16-06 02:22 PM

A loooooong time ago by Nintendo. It was a headset sort of looking thing. Only colors showing up on the screen was red and black.

SINISTER 09-16-06 02:28 PM

Ahhhh , like virtual reality or where the graphix really shitty????????????

Kirk 09-16-06 02:36 PM

Yeah, I thought they had some decent games though. Just wierd.

SINISTER 09-16-06 02:37 PM

did they have old school games like pong and shit??????????

Kirk 09-16-06 02:39 PM

Naaah. Just look it up.

SINISTER 09-16-06 03:26 PM

I did and it looks pretty shitty

Kirk 09-16-06 03:34 PM

I liked the games. But for the most part it was wack.

SINISTER 09-16-06 04:32 PM

The games see alright if your stuck in the 80's lol, i dont know man but the whole nintento thing is old news, i prolly wont buy one
