The fact that she even considered the Wii is a big step.......how many people like her have even touched the 360 or heard of the PS3 let alone thought about buying them
also next week the 360 might jump in the No2 spot and as it was foretold when that happens the horseman of the apocalypse shall come............and buy Pink DSs
There's no browser on the 360 because 95% of 360 owners have a PC....so why waste money developing a browser just to please 5%..it's all about money
also the Wii has a browser because it wants to appeal to a wider audience....in the UK millions still use teletext for weather, news, holidays...now if they have a choice to do it on the Internet without the fear of spyware, virus and have something for the kids/grankids to play with they will jump on it
and the PS3 has one because it wants to be everything to everyone
Well the browser could be good and bad for Nintendo and Wii users.
Good, there are thousands of games available in flash (hopefully the Wii will have a decent amount of RAM), quick access to game guides, quick look at Joystiq for the best gaming news ;).....and probably more uses.
Bad, there are sites that have hundreds of Snes, Genesis and turbo graphics all in flash, which could lead to Nintendo disabling some features in the browser.
