Well I actually only use my Wii for games and nothing else and have no problem with that. I use my 360 for games and DVDs.
ZOMG, YOU USE TEH 360 FOR DVDS! There ya go, multimedia on a 360. Isn't it easier to have a 360 and a Wii than a 360, Wii, and DVD player?

quote
I never said anything about a pc in your bedroom, if you have a pc in general, which everyone here does(obviously),
Not everyone has one. I know of a few people at my school that go to the library or a friends house for internet.

quote
it is much easier to just use a pc which is built and based around this sort of thing.
It's only easier because Nintendo is too stupid and lazy to allow simple USB peripherals to be used with a USB-compatible device.

quote
The Wii is built around gaming, it's strong point if you say, so why not just use it for what it's best at and leave the other stuff for electronics made specifically for them.
But ZOMG, you use your 360 for DVDs, do you not? Lets say the 360 didn't have a DVD player. You would have to purchase a separate DVD player to play DVDs, even though the 360 HAS A DVD DRIVE, YOU CANT WATCH MOVIES. Inconvenient, isn't it?

quote
I consider the Miis to be a sort of game type of thing, not really something from a pc that people would use.
The Miis aren't a game. They are customizable avatars.

quote
And about the 15+ individual components you stated, I only know of the web browser and picture viewing as pc related. SD card reading comes along with picture viewers.
You don't need an SD card. It has built in memory.

quote
Music nowadays can just be anything since people listen to it on whatever.
Ummm.... That was irrelevant. People also take pictures with different types of cameras, from phones to PDAs and (now) PSPs, but that doesn't mean anything.

quote
And I have no idea what you're talking about good graphics because the Wii doesn't have them already.
Oh god, the graphics VS gameplay argument again. USE SOME COMMON SENSE. If the Wii could have PS3 level graphics and still cost the same, would you bitch about it? NO, you wouldn't. Graphics and gameplay go hand in hand. The Wii spider man game is fun, but the graphics are SHIT, which is why the game has such awful reviews.

quote
I don't know about you but I buy my consoles for games, like most of the people I know, not purely for the extra content which is why I don't mind, care, or complain about stuff like this.
Once again, CONVENIENCE, CONVENIENCE, CONVENIENCE. Nintendo is simply too lazy to allow use of an ordinary USB keyboard/mouse.

quote
Just let it go. And besides, once you buy the Wii and the upcoming keyboard and mouse you're looking at $300+ due to taxes which is what you could pay for a shitty pc to look at the internet.
THATS ONLY BECAUSE NINTENDO IS TOO STUPID AND LAZY TO ALLOW USE OF AN ORDINARY USB MOUSE OR KEYBOARD.

re: wii can't connect to mouse or keyboard wirelessly?

It wouldn't really bother me if the 360 couldn't play DVDs because it would be cheaper and then there's my money for a cheap DVD player. Your friends must be poor or something because the only family I know around me that doesn't have internet(other than old people) is a family that the children are mentally disabled. A pc is still more comfortable than sitting on the couch with a keyboard and mouse. My uncle has that MSN internet on TV thing and I used it and it's very uncomfortable. And about what you said about graphics VS gameplay argument, I didn't say one word about that argument, I just said that the Wii doesn't have good graphics which was either proving or disproving another one of your stupid comments. I have no idea what you were trying to say with all of your other bitchy comments so I'll allow you to restate them or something.

Alright then, lets get rid of Miis. Lets get rid of the Photo channel. Lets get rid of the SD port.
But all of those are gaming-related. The Mii's are used in some Wii games. You get to play as yourself in Wii Sports, for example. Also, the SD port is used as extra storage in case you run out of internal memory. And the Photo Channel is a game within itself. You get to turn your pictures into puzzles and try to beat it in record times.
