Comparisons between iPhone and the Wii have already been fairly abundant simply because the two have arguably garnered the top spots in"electronic gadget mindshare" for at least a year each. But looking at the demos today, OFB's Timothy R. Butler thinks perhaps the iPhone could be on its way to being the Wii of portable devices-- literally.

For people like me, the iPhone is a world-class communicator
I've been following iPhone threads for awhile now and notice even though you said you're not an iphone fan boy but all your posts seem to indicate iPhone is God.
Do me a favor: for $400 you could get a phone that will do the following:
3G support
Exchange support (even better than DirectPush as it sucks battery badly)
Built-in GPS receiver so you could geotag all the pictures
DVD quality when recording video
5MP camera (it actually has 2 cameras)
Voice dialing
Great voice quality for phone and does not hang up by itself if you put the phone to close to the ear
3D and Games support (though I'm not a game boy so I'm not so sure how well but I've seen my boy plays FIFA07 and Asphalt Street Rules 3)
Real-time traffic thanks to GMap.
If you're a developer, applying for an account is free and you could digitally sign your app and publish to the mass. Don't have to go through iTunes'God.
Battery is sold everywhere and you could purchase extra battery for as little as $15 and don't have to send in your phone if the battery is dead.
I don't think the above are iPhons features. Lemme give you a hint, it starts with letter N.
