will nintendo kick ass?

Sony could soon be in the unfamiliar position of facing a serious challenge to its dominance in the home console arena, thanks in no small part to the PS3's high price - expected to be £425 (compared with the Xbox 360's £280 Premium pack).

Xbox is still overpriced, and well the ps3 is just a modern day rip of £425 thats just a joke..

heard lots of rumors that nintendo could pull of a bigger success with its new console (priced at around £170).

wot u's think will happen?

not really sure how Sony can justify the price tbh. they have already lost out big time because they are releaseing so long after the 360, which is now well established. Sony missed the boat this time IMHO.

of course the fanboys will be getting them, but i really dont see a lot of 360 owners selling their kit to move to ps3. and who can afford games for both??

i love nintendo stuff but they got nailed by the PS1 and will never recover. i did hear that the price was going to be £99 for the Wii, which at that price i would consider it even though i'm not into consoles at all really. i'll be interested in how that fancy controller works with the games

anyways good luck to Nintendo.

I'd like to try it.. but I an not a fan of the new Wii controller.. Just dosen't look right. I just can't imagine playing my favorite game with a tv remote?

Even though the 360 is still pricy, it's come down into the 'mainstream' price range.. and will probably fall a little near christmas because MS is going to really low-ball sony from what I hear.. If theres any reason to buy a PS3 it's because of the games they will have on it... PS2 had tons of awesome games.. xbox lacks in that dept..

The Wii only has a resolution of 480 dpi...which is below that of the original xbox. I think that will kill them after people start buying it and spread the word.

Whoa... close advisory there Bustin. I'm also not exactly a big fan of Wii-style controllers.
