    Didn't Sony copy Nintendo on that (who in turn copied Microsoft's joystick thingy from way back when) whole motion sensing thing. I mean if you actually believe Sony's big secret was that, then you really are gullible. Sony ripped off the Wii, which in turn ripped off other various 3rd party companies.

    Nothin "truly" unique what so ever at E3 this year.

    I don't care. Gullibility doesn't factor in.

    I'm not a fanboy in any sense of word.

    I have no allegiance to a company besides wanting them to do well if I own stock in them.

    I don't care who came up with what first.

    I don't understand "brand loyalty" unless it's with customer service.

    I think fanboys are idiots.

    My favorite console right now is the Xbox...then Xbox 360.

    If the PS3 is better (at friggin $600) then I'll say it's better.

    From a "what's on paper" standpoint and what I've seen on the 360, the Wii (in the next console generation) is more of a shit product than the GC was in the last generation.

    That remote controller doesn't change squat. I just know that besides a paltry number of games, that I'd never use the damn thing on a normal basis.

    It's a Xavix ffs. I also don't think the marketing is telling the whole story on how it works either.

    The main thing I like about the Wii is that it's Wii (small).

    It seems to have better marketing already than the GC did.

    I think it's a case of fresh and new syndrome.

    So far, I mean really, what is their to be hyped about.

    Emulated games?
    A new peripheral?
    The new Zelda?

    I'll admit that the thing I'm most hyped about if anything, would be the new games. Game that if they came out on the GC that I'd have the same wow factor.

    I just hope that if they are going come out with a new F-Zero or Star Fox that it'll be the bomb and not some bullshit.

    Btw, I think Zelda is coming from for the Wii and GC.

    Don't knock it 'till you've tried it.

    Missing the last generation entirely there's still many GC titles I'd like to play, so along with the new controller, and innovation in general; design; N's rep for quality titles; and price, Wii looks like a good choice imo.

    Ofc the ps3 have potential as well, but so far I've yet to see something to really get excited about game wise. Oh, and the price. Ugh.

    Oh I definitely try it. I'm just not as impressed as everyone else. I thought the Eyetoy was great for the PS2.

    The GC had good games but not a lot of them. I've said before that I've got more out of my Xbox and PS2 than the GC. Although the GC was lower in price, it actually ended up being the worst on a cost vs. benefit basis.

    If the PS3 comes out at $600, the Wii is $250, and I play 50 great games (plus hi-def standard movies) on the PS3 to the Wii's 15, then I'd say my PS3 investment was better.

    If you think about it, there is an easy reason why Nintendo went to number 3 in the console wars. Thanks goodness they had the Gameboy/DS/Pokemon to keep afloat.

    One thing I want to point out... It's ok, well its a great thing if the consoles steal ideas off each other. In the end we all look at what each system doesn't have and put it down for it. Sony stealing the idea, is alot bettert then not having it at all. Now if they make it there own, we'll see.
