I get the PSP, after all, it is a mobile device, all the way down to it's BUILT-IN SCREEN, but the Wii?
Hmm, the visual device, I guess you can always mod a car headrest television on top of the Wii, but a kid doing that? IDK
Power? Well, I guess you could mod a battery to it, but you have to know the correct wattage and how long the battery will last, the average kid barely knows about current let alone how to limit current to prevent blowing up something or having it underpowered
Controller, remember, the Wii's controller isn't a controller at all, it's a gyroscopic remote with an IR reciver, somehow I don't see that going over too well on the go
Finally size and weight, for size, well, it's not big, but compared to a handheld? I don't think I can stick the Wii in my pocket, and if ai can't stick it in my pocket, it dosen't have a high chance going out the door for mobile gaming, as for weight, the Wii is light weight, I wouldn't mind a portable console the same weight as the Wii, but add the battery, the car headrest televison, and something to replace the gyroscopic remote, that thing will weigh quite a bit in the end
And unless you live next to a starbucks or other establisment close enough to recieve their Wi-Fi (which I don't think much do), I don't see the Wii ever being connected to a starbucks Wi-Fi WAP or other establishment withe Wi-Fi access, maybe a neighbour's WAP, but I don't think so, if the Wii is going to be used on a wireless network, it's going to be a wireless network located in the house, and like the site said, there are security measures that can be used, for example, blocking servers, might not be the pleasent of computers in a house or software on a computer, but it can be set up, and it can block pornography
They have a better chance telling me that the electrical signals emitting from my Wii can cause cancer
The DS and the PSP on the other hand, that's something they should be looking into, and the fact that there isn't a patent on the PSP's UMDs, meaning anybody can make UMDs, including the pornography business (is it even a business?)
Also, the #1 user of the web browser on my Wii is me, and guess what? I'm 18, I have the right to look at porn if I choose to
