Nintendo Wii(Formally know as the Revolution)

[iastreb]

one reporter asked the Sony company: why do we have to buy a PS3, when we can buy a Wii and a XBox 360 tgether on the same prize of the PS3? The Wii will be a dream come to reality, something beatiful for all gamers... Nintendo Wii, 20 years of games in one console.... my coment to all this: WOW ;D

Then the PS3 must be like $800 if the Wii is $300 and the Xbox 360 is like $500, and we can get the same games and more for a cheeper price, is that what this is saying?

You need to keep up with news JDog.  The PS3 has two versions available.  There will be a 500gb version which is a basically stripeed down version of the system.  And a 600gb version which will have all of the special features on it.  

On another note.  Nintendo has said that the Wii will cost less than the 360, which is currently priced at 400 dollars.  Knowing Nintendo, it will probably be about 300 dollars.

I said the wii would be about 300, did I not?

Also, the Wii Controller will have a speaker of its own inside it. That way when you use the clawshot, you can hear the echos off to the side. Yoyu aim with it and everything! Its SOOOOOOOOO going to rock. However... For some of the old school gamers like myself. The controller will have certain.. difficulties. Thats why they made a second Wii controller. Its like a watered down version of the origional. here is a pic. http://www.planetgamecube.com/media/2533/1/22060.jpg

Why did they change the name to Wii?

1.They probably wanted it to sound more Japanese
2.Some believe that Revolution was just a codename

 :'(not a good reason. Wii is close to we. 20 years together

The wii remote can also be attached to the nunchuck controller which you can spin to do the sword spin  and move Link with the analogue stick. I think the old style controller might be just for the old games. Also you can buy an attachment to play DVDs etc
Go on the link I put before it has the hardware, software (games and their descriptions), philosophy (general info about the Wii), and all the information about the controllers!

[JDog]

I'd say to make it sound fun.

[Rev Rabies]

The wii remote was innovative with it's motion-sensing but Sony copied it and put it in the PS3 controller

Also in FPS's if you tilt the remote the gun tilts to the side! Gangsta!

Not only that, but you can also continue using GameCube controllers! Now THAT is the ultimate in game consoles! ;D
