Enter Nintendo Wii
On Sunday afternoon Dayna and I were lucky enough to find a Nintendo Wii at Best Buy. We got the last one. The fact that they can stay in stock at Best Buy for most of a Sunday tells me that the supply is starting to catch up with demand.
The Wii seems to be a great compliment to my Xbox 360. My general impression is – lower price, worse graphics, better multiplayer experience.
I am going to start keeping a list of what I love about each console and post it up here.
Video Games!
What an exciting week for the video game industry. Playstation 3 launches Friday the 17th of November, and Nintendo Wii launches Sunday the 19th of November.
I personally am still excited about the year-old XBox 360.
It will be interesting to see how these consoles sell during the holidays. The rumor is that if PS3 is not a huge success, Sony is in serious trouble.
UPDATE
At least one reviewer (NY Times) is calling PS3 the loser this year. This is not entirely surprising considering PS3’s high cost and short list of games thus far.
