"Better" is relative. imo, the Wii is the most fun I've had playing video games since Dreamcast. Virtually everybody that has played mine has turned around and bought one of their own.

The graphics are nowhere near PS3 or 360's capabilities, but for me, it's all about the gameplay.

Being an old-timer (in video game years only), the Wii is a refreshing change in a world that has been missing real innovation for quite some time. I am also intrigued by the nostalgia offered by Virtual Console.

X-Box and Playstation can't compete with the Wii in the party games department. If you have friends, you need a Wii.

If you can afford it, the Wii would be a great addition to your 360. I'd bet you'll even like it more than your 360.
 
I got a Wii for Christmas, and I havent't stopped playing tennis since then. It's pure fun, I love it. But what i love the most is that they won't stop at minigames and stuff like that. Zelda is the proof. I've seen my brother play, he won't let go of the controls, and I'm dying to play. That game is indeed a revolution.

Hopefully i can score one at the end of this week and we'll play!
 
While I love the Wii and am currently playing it the most right now, if you have friends whom aren't local, then Xbox 360 w/ Live is a great choice IMO.

Personally I think the 2 systems complement each other nicely. Wii for when have friends come over, and the 360 for online play. Hopefully will see more online gaming w/ the Wii in the future.

Meanwhile, my PS3 sits and collects dust.....
 
I finally picked up a Wii yesterday morning at Wal Mart. It was funny, cause I went to this 24 hr. Super Walmart that is in a small town near me and had no problems picking one up. I went around 5am and they told me they had actually had them on sale since midnight and only 1 person had come in. I went to another 24 hr. Super Wal Mart in San Antonio around an hour later and there was a small line and they weren't even going to be putting them on sale til 8am. These two Wal Mart's are only around 25 miles apart.

Unless I misunderstood you, why would you need a DS wifi connector for the Wii?
 
i got a Wii a few weeks ago from Gamecrazy, and scored two more in two other locations for two of my coworkers. I haven't opened Zelda yet (i know...) but i do like Wii sports.

I also got Red Steel, but didn't like it so I traded it in for Marvel Alliance... it's the same as the 360 version which i like, some of the controls are "eh", but it's still playable.

i.e. i don't fully recommend Red Steel. I can't wait for Wii Play to come out since it comes with a Wii Remote.

I think he's referring to the little USB device that you can plug into your wired computer and broadcast wifi signal for your DS. This is useful for those that do not have a wireless router.

I can't say whether it works or no because I use a wireless router, sorry. I did find this at nintendo's site: https://store.nintendo.com/webapp/w...USD&storeId=10001&ddkey=SetCurrencyPreference
