I don't see why. Confused The PS3 and the Xbox 360 are both better platforms. The weird controls on the Wii are nice, but I think the graphics and game complexity have been woefully neglected for the sake of those new contols.

The Wii is damned impossible for stores to get in let people actually buy.

I am annoyed by the wiis popularity in schools and when i argue to the kids that it is a childish gimick it seems to fall on deaf ears ( funny that seeing that they are children Very Happy ) , essentially it is still a gamecube dressed up with a new hand controller , and I get a little bothered when it is lumped into the same catogory as the PSIII and Xbox. Luckily I saw this advert and it pointed out ( in a backward sort of way ) that i wasnt going completely crazy and made me chuckle ( albeit its a nintendo ad) .
