Don’t look at me with that dumbstruck look on your face. We have to discuss the next set of “Next-Gen” consoles to emerge out of the big N and Sony. It’s what gamers are talking about, and I’m completely in love with Wii already. So without further ado, let’s get down to buisness.
Sony PlayStation 3: Do you go by the little moniker of “money bags”?
Upon further examination of the Playstation 3, my jaw immediately dropped. The specs include:
up to seven Bluetooth controllers, Wi-Fi via PSP, 3.2GHz of this, 256MB of that, Blu-ray Media, DVD-ROM, DVD+RW.. it basically makes you believe you might be seeing things. Lo and behold: Sony Playstation 3.
Nintendo Wii: GameCube remixed
A huge grin broke upon on my face when I first heard the Wii’s specs, but still… what an odd name.
The specs:
A processing chip provided by IBM and a graphics chip provided by ATI, a self-loading media bay, two USB 2.o ports, 512 megabytes of internal flash memory, and so on…
I was really reading all about the Wii, and after several minutes of uncontrolled laughter by just thinking about the name alone, Nintendo proved their point about “innovating gaming.” They proved their point with a dagger to video gaming and anything even remotely normal. Wii allows fanboys and gamers alike to download and relive all of their past Super Nintendo, NES and N64 gaming memories. Moreover: SD memory cards, wireless Bluetooth technology, backwards compatability with Nintendo GameCube discs, all sound fine, but then it branches off into madness: “Wii can communicate with the Internet even when the power is turned off’ (your eyes just widened, didn’t they?) Sony is probably wondering if they are going to ever sleep or see the light of day again while they get word of more and more of the Wii’s habitual madness.
Lo and behold: Nintendo Wii.
I am of the opinion that both consoles sound nice and fancy and all that, but in all honesty, the Wii sounds like the most fun and most reasonable price-wise, so it gets my vote. Please note that due to obvious time constraits and other duties I have at the moment, telling you of the high risks of addiction and video game disease connected to these two consoles sounds beyond what I can explain to you in this set amount of time. Just don’t complain to me if you turn into a Wii.
I just wonder what Microsoft is up to…
