The Wii is a total gimmick and was never meant to be nintendos next gen system hence the name change from the revolution to the wii.  They are working on there next gen system right now that will be for HDTV's.  Currently they are behind Sony and Microsoft in terms of tecnology unless you count gimmicky kiddy games that you play with a thing that looks like a tv remote,lol.

In terms of next gen hardware and graphics and processing power the PS3 wins hands down.  Too bad the only game worth owning that is an exclusive on that system at the moment is Metal Gear 4.

They lost exclusivety to GTA4, and of course the yet to be released Final Fantasy XIII.  Which was a huge blow to sony and a big win for the 360. 

Sony got a lot of the Nintendo faithful back in the ps1 era when they landed final fantasy VII as an exclusive, that and the PS2 came along and the ps1 and ps2 were like the snes before them great role playing game systems.  I left nintendo once square went to work for sony, and never looked back.  I have not missed anything as nintendo continues to just do stupid remakes of mario, zelda, and metroid and does nothing original except in terms of gameplay.  I like games that tell a story.   Yeah i played a bit of twilight princess on someone elses wii, but it was largely a ripoff of a link to the past and some other wolf game.

They only have exclusivety To final Fantasy versus XIII the spinoff that has nothing to do with the main franchise game.  Also possibly Exclusivety to God of War 3 is it ever gets made,lol.

Still they are i have heard programming the HD games at 720P and not 1080P yet. 

Microsofts tentpole franchise is Halo and there are currently no plans for a 4th Halo game.  And if it does get made it will be without bunjie.  Then Of course they get a limited time of exclusivety on Mass Effect 2 before it gets out on the pc.

I am pissed that there will be no Knights of the Old Republic III for the 360.  They are making a stupid mmo that goes hundreds of years beyond revan and they never tell you his fate.  Where the hell is star wars battlefront 3 for the 360 i have been waiting forever for that.  Where is the Indiana Jones game that had san francisco as a location?  All we got was Travelers Tales Lego Indiana Jones, and the in house Force Unleashed which sucked.  Now that Lucasarts are outsourcing all their games will any good new star wars games be made.  I want another Kyle Katarn game for the PC following the last game Jedi Outcast.

We could always beg for a next gen game trilogy like the super star wars trilogy for the snes that followed the original movies.  Too bad Lucas would probably insert references to the prequels and special editions.  A game set in the real oot would be awesome though.   But to use footage from the movies in game would require using the less than stellar gout, thanks a lot george.
