Wii outsells PS3 3-1 in Japan

[cigar no baka]

I had a feeling that the high price of PS3 would have this effect

I think the high price is a factor... but not the only one. There are much better games out right now for the wii. Having played both for a decent amount of time (and owning a wii), I would say that the wii games are just plain more fun.

PS3 needs a killer-app style game to see consoles and show off it's hardware. Until then, I don't see them having many more sales.

F*** Sony ,I got the boy a wii,he loves it and ity will play gamecube games too. Its a nice rig. He is amused in my old NES

I don't have any experience with either one, but I'd buy a Sony over the Nintendo if I had money to do that. Maybe in a year when the price of the Sonys and HDTVs drop I'll think about it. Without HDTV, there is not point of getting the PS3.

You have to remember Sony was trying to put out a "multimedia platform" not just a gaming console......In no way am I saying sony is better. I in fact own a Wii and love it to death. For less than half the price I enjoy playing the wii more than a ps3. They updated the graphics...big deal. People were looking for something new and fun to do, which is what nintendo put out.
