  Hmmm.. I think it's sales will do jus fine and maybe better than PS3. It's strengths come in it's lower cost (not forgetting better technologies tho) and games aimed at the masses and kids alike.
  
  Wii has somewhat a universal appeal and something that parents will be willing to part $$ with. "Honey, that Nintendo Wii set looks so gorgeously white and harmless/innocent..shall we buy one for our son?"

  In other words, they also promote fun and healthy at the same time. Can exercise the limbs and aching joints.

  Imagine wielding Wii as if a lightsaber in a game of starwars! Woot!
  
  This is a very creative console. Would buy it if I've actually got the spare cash.

  The Wiimote uses batteries like siao.....
  
  Have to wait for reviews when it's actually out.

  any website to see the announcement?
  
  anyway, i remember when i was a teenager, this was this arcade game whereby the concept is the same as the Wii, using the joystick to wield a lightsaber.
