wii sells because it is cheaper, and has a unique input for controlling in the game ... the input method is what makes it sell more then the price.

I'm not sure, but I guess it's the other way around, the Xbox 360 as worse graphics then the PS3 but a better CPU, thats the reason why Splinter Cell: Convection isn't coming out on the PS3.

/cheer!

i still prefer my PC over everything else when it comes to games ... i got rid of my ps3, and eventually picked up a Wii .. just for the 'simple' family games that it has...

The 360 uses "500 MHz ATI Xenos" and the PS3 uses "550 MHz NVIDIA/SCEI RSX 'Reality Synthesizer'... in terms of numbers the PS3 wins....lol But I honestly don't claim to know that much about graphics chips, maybe someone like Ex could fill us in....

Price isn't the only reason, Brawl is a good game, so is Mario Kart...
However I do have some friends who got a Wii because they can't afford the PS3 or a 360...

360 uses the "3.2 GHz PowerPC Tri-Core Xenon" CPU and the PS3 boasts the "3.2 GHz Cell Broadband Engine with 1 PPE & 7 SPEs" CPU...
once again, I'm not very educated in this department....

No, I'm pretty sure that PS3 has a lot better CPU than XBox 360, but it's hard to program in it. Performance-wise it's better, it just takes a lot more to make a game with that CPU. EA developers sent a big complain once to PS3.

Yeah, but isn't XBox 360 - 512MB and PS3 - 256MB?

AGAIN: Do not discuss which CPU is better. All gaming developers have already stated PS3 has a better one but it's more complicated.

Didn't you JUST say that you thought the 360 has the better processor?

anyways, as stated in wal-mart training "The Cell Processor is essentially as powerful as 3 Xbox 360's or 35 PlayStation 2 CPU's”
PS3’s Cell three times more powerful as the Xbox 360 processor? - VideoGamesBlogger

wrong, any game that's possible on the 360 is more than possible on the PS3.

but anyways, let's try to keep this mature...

Nope, capability-wise I said PS3 is better, to program with it, it's a lot complicated...

no I didn't say it's worse

Omg this has been discussed a billion times~ The Wii is my favourite but I love them all.

And a cheap plug for my video!
