I had xbox ps2 and a gamecube. I think a lot of people have atleast 2 if not 3 of the old gen consoles, so a Wii and 360 in the same household doesnt sound stupid, heck Halo 3, PGR 3, PES 6, GTA plus more 360 games for the 360 + Live and Mario, Zelda, Starfox and the rest of the Nintendo crew plus the whole Nintendo back catalogueetc. plus the amazing controller

= sex Wii :eek:

Kids wont be able to get 2 but anybody with a part/full time job could.

Makes sense to side with Nintendo.
The enemy of your enemy is your friend.

Nintendo 64's project name was "Project Reality". Ultra 64 was to be the launch name in the USA and Europe, with Nintendo 64 in Japan right up until about 3 months before the Japanese launch when it was announced that the Ultra 64 tag would be dropped in favour of Nintendo 64 worldwide.
