Competition Heats Up
I just received my latest Wired magazine, and they reviewed this winters hot new gadgets. Among the TV's, sound systems, and cell phones were the big three: Nintendo Wii, Sony PS3, and Microsoft Xbox360. Sitting atop the list was the Wii with a stellar 9/10. Wired fell in love with the new controller and the virtual console. PS3 came in lower than its rivals due to high price and lack of killer games. The online service from Xbox helped them achieve an 8/10. This artical is just the first of many comparisons due this fall trying to name a winner this christmas. only time will tell, but i have still got my bet on the Wii. Thier piggy back with the nintendo fusion tour this summer helped thier exposure a lot. making the "r us" wish list from Toys R Us will really help Nintendo this fall too. Gears of War for 360 is coming out soon and it may be the killer app MS has been searching for for a year. Sony really has to make up some ground in the media amidst produciton shortage news and constant price criticism. let me know what you think, but I think the consumers will choose the Wii with an overwhelming demand this christmas.
