Nintendo: Wii is all about fun, not teraflops

Nov 21st 2006 6:00PM (Joystiq)

Having played on my friends WII for about 5 hours now, the novelty soon wore off, the WIImote is not intuitive as first imagined, to my mind pressing a button is of equal gesture if not preferable to waving my arm. Greater graphics and processing power can enhance fun, most of the best and immersive games took of advantage of the best graphics and processing power at the time.

$39.99 for controller, the nunchuck for $19.99

I see where Nintendo make all their money, by releasing a new controller with every console, it's a Rip-Off.

$250 is outrageous, this is mutton dressed as lamb, the WII is not affordable or even value for money.

Is it easily possible to build a PC capable of playing Crysis for 100 to 300 pounds (with upgradability), buying parts off ebay, a fraction of the UK PS3 cost of 425 pounds.

Crysis Minimum Requirements:

* CPU: Athlon 64 3000+/Intel 2.8ghz
* Graphics: Nvidia 6600 GS/X800GTO (SM 2.0)
* RAM: 768Mb/1Gb on Windows Vista
* HDD: 6GB
* Internet: 256k+
* Optical Drive: DVD
