Since some of you obviously can' t get over your rampant fanboyism, lets try and keep in all in here. You want to argue that one console is greater than another? Ok, that' s not a problem, just don' t do it in any other threads.

Quez, i' m dedicating this thread to you. You' re the ultimate Microsoft posterboy and now you have a new home...

The catalyst? This...







I' m not sure if they' ll update in realtime, but you can find the up-to-date figures (according to nextgenwars.com) HERE



It looks like Microsoft are well on their way to hitting 10M by years end and Wii is off to a flying start. Sony, ...well, they' re getting RAPED!!!

Those numbers are lying. They probably took a huge payoff from Microsoft, Or... or... Sony doesn' t care about market shares... or... um... maybe they missed a decimal... or...


(Read as: " About D@/\/\ /\/ time this thread showed up" )

Hopefully people can keep their inner Microsoft/Sony/Nintendo freak on a leash.

Even with the clear 1 year Head Start (360), 54% of people Voted Wii will overall Winner.

I actually hope Both / Sony /MS go down..

I want the Originators, the Only Company out of the three who really care about the future of Gaming, I want Nintendo the Prevail and Continue to spread their creativeness to as much people as possible.



Then i Want Sega to come back on the Scene (lol, i Can only dream).

Dreamcast 2 in 2009!!!

F*ck Nintendo, and their low-res sh*t!!

(I' m just made ' cause I can' t find any component cables for my Wii!)

360 is the best console available RIGHT NOW!! Don' t give me that " down the road" bullsh*t!

Hell, 360 is the best " down the road" , too!!!

Mass Effect > PS3 + Wii

I don' t think i will be getting my component cables for my Wii at launch too (On the 7th DEC), so that means no Zelda TP for me till i get them, considering i purchased my HD TV to play Zelda at 480p. AAARRRRGGGHHH!! You better get those component cables to me soon Nintendo, YOU HEAR ME!!!

Well at least i can play Wii Sports and Wii Play with my crappy non gamer friends.

If you really want component you can supposedly splice open the cord they give you with the Wii and make your own. All you need is 3 connector heads extra.

Hehe,great thread,lets bump tyhis forever,or make it a sticky.

ofc we know the real figures and how the console wars is really going after sometime 2007 x-mas.

Its not that easy..


(very deep breath)...surely the scart or whatever connector which comes with Wii does not use all of the pins used for a Component signal.. (Gasps.. )

I share your frustration Chee Saw, but I just ordered mine straight from Nintendo Canada over the phone on Thursday. Guy said they finally cleared there back order, and my order status as of today was " preparing for shipping" . I can' t wait. I bought Zelda on day one, but haven' t even put it in my machine after I saw comparison shots on the internet between composite and component. I' m pumped!

Linky plz.

What do you want a link for Quez? The comparison shots? My order update online? I can' t link you to the conversation as that happend in real time on the phone .

Is this simply the number of PS3 consoles that have been made? Have they reached the point yet where you can walk into a shop in Japan or the US and just pick one up?

I was looking at Wii preorders online there for the UK, looks like I won' t be able to get one before Christmas now! I' m glad it' s already doing so well for Nintendo, but obviously a bit disappointed for me! I' m surprised so many people have preordered too, I' m still not sure if the Wii is actually going to have lasting appeal or if the controller is going to be a gimick thath gets tired quickly! The WarioWarez video spurred me into placing a preorder, but now I can' t!

The comparsion ofc,i still cant afford a wii, dont know if i should buy the GC version of zelda or wait...

Comparison shots

Ok, there you go. Just let the page load, then cursor over the image, and after about 2 seconds it will flip to the component image. A world of difference.

ANy diffeence on wii vs GC?

Can' t afford a wii until 2007 jan or feb.
But want Zelda very much...i think

Thanks for the comparison shots mxpx182! The component cable images are much more crisp and less blurry then the composite version. I' m glad i' m picking up my HD TV today!! YES, just have to wait for the Wii component cables, and more importantly the Wii (DEC 7th).

Quez the GC version doesn' t run at 480p nor does it run in widescreen. If i were you i' d wait till you can afford a Wii, most reviewers agree that it plays better on a Wii.

Okay Terrak.

Well I dunno about the scart, but the composite ones it comes with do have them on there u just gotta cut it I guess. I haven' t tried it or anything.
