Games The Wii (pronounced as the pronoun wee) is the fifth home video game console released by Nintendo. The console is the direct successor to the Nintendo GameCube. Nintendo states that its console targets a broader demographic than that of Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Sony's PlayStation 3, but it competes with both as part of the seventh generation of gaming systems.

I got bored of PC gaming when the anal retention set in too much. The same has become of the PS3. So much focus has come upon specs and HD this and that, that no thought has gone into having fun at all. It's become a "mine's bigger" contest.

This loss of focus reminds me of 1983, when so much shite was shipped that the industry collapsed. Guess who revived it? Nintendo, in 1987, with the NES, a system that actually had fun games.
