Fabrice Cuny: Overall the Wii is more powerful than an Xbox, even if the Xbox can do some stuff that the Wii can't.

From an IGN interview with Far Cry creators for Wii.

Kinda sad really ... the Wii is about equal with Xbox. Been beaten into the ground enough, but I'dd like to know what specifically are advantages of one over the other.

What the Wii lacks in horsepower, it makes up for innovation and gaming magick.

Don't buy anything third party unless it says Capcom on the cover.

I won't buy anything for the Wii until it says "YOURS for only $9.99" on the cover. Fuck this shit.

You could say that for just about every franchise, so blow it out your straw, Shake.

The Wii will be the console leader next generation, with innovation and mainstream appeal. It has the tools and the hardware capable of changing the video game demographic forever. Own the Nintendo Wii experience in November, and make a choice you will never regret -- Wii are the world.

Yes a new 3D Mario with an intuitive interface is more of the same. Why can't I play something new and fresh like bald space marine kills aliens, version 6000 exclusive to 360/PS3!

Say what you will about alot of first party Sony/M$oft titles, but at least they change their game up every once and awhile. Nintendo just seems to be rehashing the same few titles OVER and OVER again, no matter what gimmicks they toss in for good measure. It's still the same old-same old, and its hardly appealing to me anymore.

729 MHz IBM PowerPC "Broadway" CPU
243 MHz ATI "Hollywood" GPU
24MBs "main" 1T-SRAM
64MBs other 1T-SRAM
3MBs texture memory on GPU

vs.

733 MHz chip crafted by Intel (PIII)
250MHz custom chip named XGPU, developed by Microsoft and nVIDIA
64 MB running at 200MHz DDR (Double-Data-Rate)

It's a draw!

How the hell is Mario a rehash? The entire game is a brand new premise. Wind Waker was completely different, now TP is completely different than that.

Nintendo has been more daring, on making something new, even if you don't like the games they are coming up with.

Let me tell you about a little game called Super Mario™ Galaxy®, featuring unique and innovative gameplay that revolutionizes the platforming genre -- it's only available for the Nintendo Wii®, which will retail for the groundbreaking next-gen price of $249.99 and a bundle pak of Wii® Sports.

That's not all, exclusive to the online Nintendo Wii® experience are a variety of online channels - from the Mii® Channel to news and weather. Turn your living room into a portal to the information superhighway, impress peers and loved ones and never move from the couch today.

That's just scratching the surface of what the Nintendo Wii® can do, because it focuses on content, not visuals.

Joke? There will be plenty of joking around the living room this holiday season when your loved ones unwrap a brand new Nintendo Wii® from Nintendo brand wrapping paper, and plug in Ubisoft's incredibly hilarious (and charming!) epic Rayman® adventure - Rayman® Raving Rabbids only for the Nintendo Wii® Entertainment System.

Nintendo fans need not worry, Super Smash Bros.® Brawl is on the way for Nintendo Wii® Entertainment System, featuring all the Nintendo stalwarts you know and love and some surprise entries as well (Snake, anyone?). And with the Nintendo Wi-Fi® online experience, you will be able to play Super Smash Bros.® Brawl like never before - online (possibly). Just another reason why you should put down a low deposit for a purchase of the truly first next gen system for next gen.
