Nintendo Vs Sony

From cent.com forums:

Which one would you buy and why? I'll tell you right now, the only company that will be getting my money is Nintendo. Why would I want to pay 400 bucks for an Xbox with better graphics? Why would I want to pay 600 bucks for a PS2 with better graphics, and half-baked Wii-like controls? Granted the Blu-Ray could be important to those who want it but I personally dont care much about Blu-Ray so Why should I spend THREE TIMES AS MUCH on the PS3?! Plus, what good games does Xbox have besides Halo - and I mean FUN to play GOOD games - not many. PS3 has a bunch of pretty good ones but 600 bucks is too expensive for most consumers to justify spending in my opinion. Plus, the games for PS3 will very likely be more expensive considering they are Blu-Ray. . . I want something completely different and fun to play - Imagine the control you could have over first person shooters with the Wii! And sweet nintendo-only titles such as Zelda: Twilight Princess (or should I say Twiiliight) and Super Mario Galaxy - how can you resist! And I completely forgot about being able to play all the nintendo classics from back on the original NES and SNES. . . Hopefully they will be cheap.

Ha, I kinda sound like a Nintendo spokesperson but it just seems like it has a lot of potential - I was massively dissappointed with the gamecube (But then again I done own any of the really great games so I'll have to pick some) but I am putting my money on Nintendo this round: Who agrees with me? If you dont, which would you be most likely to buy and why?

I actually think if you look at the huge sucess in sales of the PS1 and 2 compared to the Nintendo console sales (gamecube anyone? lol) that this blokes got it completely wrong.
Yeh the price is high, but thats cos your buying more than just a games console, its a complete media center.
The noveltly of the motion hand sensors on the wii is just a gimmick and will wear off quick and other than Zelda most of the games are designed for 6yr olds as far as I can see!
Sony are having a few problems with the controller issue, but imo they will get through this and soon after realease half the population will have the ps3 just like the earlier versions.
The games look awesome, and its a must but on my list!

Anyway this was pretty funny!
