Doesn't surprise me at all.

I'd still take an xbox 360 over either.

The wii gets old... quick and the ps3 is too much money for not enought system.

I have to say that I'm not a big fan of any of the 3 systems but the xbox is the best of the three.

I agree the PC is superior to any console. IMO, the article seems to point to the fact that people are more willing buy an innovative and fun, yet somewhat graphically lacking system that costs less than the higher performance and more expensive 360's and PS3's.

Which is making Nintendo a ton of money considering they don't lose money on each console sold.

I don't care about sales figures. I own a Wii and a 360, and from personal experience, the 360 kills the Wii, IMO. And what is this about the Wii being so much more fun than other consoles? I have yet to find a game for the Wii that was better than the same game on the Xbox.

Xbox 360 > Wii. IMO.

Although it may just be hearsay, apparently the new Man Hunt coming out on Wii was far too graphic with the hand motions you would have to make, so the whole game is being re done.  Kinda sucks.
The desire for polyester is just to powerful.

Because the majority of Wii owners aren't lonely nerds who sit in their bedrooms and fap to Halo 3.

I have both the Wii and the Xbox 360. They are two completely different systems used for two different types of gameplay really.

id take my xbox over a wii. i havent seen or heard any good games or games i'd be at least interested in for wii. ps3, maybe resistance fall of man, that looks cool, but still no games have i heard of.

if i had the money for an amazing computer, i'd get one to play some RTS and whatnot on it, but no shooters. defiantly sticking with my 360. i'd defiatnly like a nice pc to play star wars empire at war.

i love nintendo products for their fun games to play that are always classics like the smash bros games and mario karts. I never like mario party though.
