nope i wanted to hear things like that...it doesnt matter for him, if his opinion didnt change, then that must mean that he DID know everything on the speech that i wrote already...right? sarcastic*; this is very doubtful, i still think hes being ignorant if he doesnt think anything different about the Wii from what i wrote...doesnt mean he has to like the system or want it, but he obviously wasnt eager to learn lol)

3. Online gaming does not look to promising
4. IN GENERAL, Games may be too kiddy
5. Picture quality may suffer on large hd screens.
THats all i can think of right now, please remember im not bashing the wii.

I'm in College, so while you're in for 6-8 hours, I'm only in for 3 at max.

On Topic: You make a good arguement, but the truth is that during console wars every party (Including us) is too persistant and dedicated to their favourite systems that there is no mind-changing involved.
Only by getting them to play it can you persuade.
but anyways, in terms of Console Wars all I haave to say really is
'Each to Their Own'

he is bieng really ignorant about the wii...
i think he just dosn't want to admit that the wii is actully more then what ppl think it is...see we kept talking about it and he kept saying the wii will be gay and blah blah blah its gonna suck ( the thing is he didn't do his reserch right...he thinks PS3 and 360 is way better then the wii when actully in the lattest reviews...the wii is kicking both 360 and PS3's asses so..) so anyway now that he knows im right he dosn't want to admit it ( he's one of the kind that can't stand bieng wrong) i hate those ppl

you spotted something very good! these are EXACTLY the people im talking about, who readily choose to be ignorant and do not value the truth...their assumptions are too much of assumptions--not proper research is being done to label the Wii like that. well, now he really nows the truth about the Wii after you explained it, yet his ignorant side still doesnt want to admit it...he is too controlled by the "all-mighty PS3 and X-BOX 360" and by his own stereotypical opinion on the Wii, which is obviously not based on fact or the truth, since he STILL doesnt believe what hes hearing
remember, when you assume...you make an ass out of you... and me

i believe in this same thing you wrote up there. but u didnt grasp the main idea!
i am NOT trying to persuade anyone on buying the Wii or making it their favorite console either, i am NOT a Wii salesperson and therefore can care less if people buy it or not...but my point is to help people make their decisions based on FACT and the TRUTH, not on their stereotypical/ignorant views (which i stated in my speech)...my goal isnt to make people buy the Wii, it is to tell them the truth andl et them decide based on the truth, not the stereotypical, wrong views.
This year, thousands upon thousands of people will not buy the Wii due to stereotypical (and therefore ignorant) views on it...is this decision made with real information backing it up or not? these people are not buying the Wii because they think its gonna be another gamecube, have bad graphics, kiddie games etc. (look in my speech to see the rest)...but these things are not true; the people are literally brainwashed by their own stereotypical views do you get waht im trying to say here? making a decision based on false justifications is wrong altogether, rather make right decisions on something thats true, right?

well, if everyone knew the truth about the Wii from the start, then the Wii would DEFINATELY have a high chance of being number one...unfortunately, most of the people believe in the stereotypical ways of the Wii...if they knew the truth, their decision on getting the Wii or not would be a good decision since its based on fact
(sorry if this is all getting a bit repetitive, im trying to use lots of emphasis lol; plus, it seems that things need to repeated just to keep the idea in your mind flowing)

Well, I am no fanboy of any system, I think all of them have their pros and cons. My only problem with the Wii is the specs. I realize that the specs aren't important when it comes to the Wii, but my case is that I feel that I am paying $320 (Canadian) for an idea. To explain this a little further, the specs on the Wii, if I am not mistaken look roughly like this..
CPU: Approx 700mhz (Single Core)
Video: Slighty better or comparable to Xbox.
How much does a 700mhz CPU cost now a days? A 2.8 Ghz CPU is like $50! I realize that there is alot more to the Wii than just the CPU and Video, but I just feel kind of ripped in a technological sense. This isn't stopping me from buying a Wii, as I am buying both the PS3 and the Wii, but I just feel like I am paying for the idea of motion sensing. I encourage any comments anyone has regarding this. (Good or Bad)
