I read a lot about this, about its actually supposed to be a successful system. Every article written on it, claims it'll place third in sales. I'm glad they gave honest reviews.

i played ultra 64 in 96 when it first came out. Right from the beginning, nintendo was targeting the same little kids they target with their handhelds. Look at the DS, its not new technology, its just a re-release of the ultra 64 but handheld form. Great idea... remake the games that failed in sales, but for a handheld and call it new!

I think im going to get one. Its affordable and something unique. I know none of my friends are going to be able to afford a PS3, and since the only gaming I enjoy is online the PS3 will be no fun at all. The controller is motion activated, there's a few articles on it. For example, if your playing a samurai game and want to swing the sword, you just swing the controller. They also have many other plug-in's and accessories for the controller to make it functional for all games, including the console standard game pad.

Make your frinds get a job, thoze lazy bumbs! I gess do what ever you want, for all i know the wi fie thing might be bigger then the ps3, but remember when the 360 was coming out, every one said it was to expensive, but it seems to be the hot thing to do? Well Gran Turismo 5 will be on the ps3, as well as gta, so thats reason enough to buy it for me.

How come the controller thing looks like a tv remote? It looks hard to control if it's like that.

You should have seen the one on my old Calecovision
Made it hard to play Frogger...I'm waiting on the PS3, until springtime. I honestly wish it didn't take so long to port game's to the PC, I'd never buy another system again if they'd all release at once.

Yes they have, however they have declared that instead of sticking to those types of games they are just going to go with whats the most popular.
