The Wii isn't necessarily better, it's just what you prefer. I prefer the 'gameplay for my dollar' value, which obviously, with the Wii being so much cheaper, is much better. I think the online service for the Wii is amazing. It's free, i can buy wiipoints to download NES, SNES, N64, Turbographix and Megadrive games that i grew up with, and the unique controller has given me more fun in gaming overall since Goldeneye. Graphics take a back seat, and as long as they are better than last gen, then i am happy, which they are. Zelda on Wii looks better than anything last gen, and having my games in 16:9 480p makes them look better again. My only gripe is the lack of 3rd party N64 games on the virtual console and the fact there is only 1 online enabled game (Mario Strikers, which i love and is lagless). Each to thier own. All consoles have thier good games, i just think that for the price of a 360 and Ps3, games would have to be extraordinary to be worthy of purchase, and by extraordinary, i mean have 20+ hours of gameplay that is worth the price. Graphics are not worth the price, for $1000 i can buy a PC capable of better Ps3 graphics cause i can build it myself. Buying a console for future games is a waste since by the time those games come out, it's a cheaper console, and is THEN worthy of purchase. This is obviously just my opinion.
