The Wii definitely gets more use in my house than the PS3 or 360. Gameplay is simple and pretty intuitive.

I'm really thinking about getting the Wii just for the TW game. That feature alone makes it pretty dang cool. I don't think the controller would adapt as well to football games...but for baseball, tennis, and TW golf it will be pretty dang cool.

The only problem with Tiger on it is the putting is ridiculously hard. Bowling on Wii sports is a blast

the reason for the good sales numbers might be because it is so much cheaper..

We have one and havn't been too impressed with it, the remote isnt as responsive as it should be, but I havn't played a whole lot of games either, just Wii sports, Madden 07, and Zelda twilight princess

Ding Ding Ding Ding Ding!!!

We have a winner!!!!

I too think the price has more to do with it. I'd love to have a PS3, but I can't justify 1/2 K on it.

Putting on the 360 is horrible to. Atleast on the Wii you can do a practice and know how far you are bring it back. As far as i know you have to just judge on your own what percentage to bring the putter back. You can't even see the line like on the Wii.

I've looked for the Wii but they are still hard to find unless you're there when the shipment arrives. I look forward to getting one soon.:cool:

I just love how some of the "Next Gen Juggernauts" that were supposed to dominate the little Wii are now treading water and were doing so shortly after launch. (See: Playstation 3, The)
Warms my heart.

I personally think if you are a serious gamer that wants to sit down and play some great games than the PS3 or 360 is the way to go but if you want to kick back and have some good times with some friends and laugh your arse off then Wii is awesome. I think the Wii is more fun in social settings like playing doubles tennis and stuff like that.

So are you saying that the Wii is a better "drinking with friends" game system?:thinking:

Thats exactly what I mean, lol. Alcohol does make gameplay alot more fun and graphics really don't matter as much.

Haha that is cool.

We have a modded Xbox and it has all the arcade games on it, it's always good to relive the glory days of parachute pants and TMNT.
