Nintendo Wii beats Xbox 360, PS3 as most wanted consoles by engaged couples
You would think there would be more important things that couples would be after in a wedding registry but the Nintendo Wii managed to be at the very top of Amazon’s wedding registry list. I’m happy to say that there are other people out there with severely misplaced (gaming) priorities, like myself only I’m not a Nintendo fan.
That is the one thing I can actually understand. The Wii excels at being a party or group play console and what could be more fun then playing Wii sports with your new spouse, okay, so there’s one other thing which probably shouldn’t be mentioned here.
As I said, the Wii is a group console so couples should gravitate towards it but for everyone else, get a nice Halo 3 Xbox 360 Edition and a copy of Halo 3 Legendary Edition.
According to Mlive, the PS3 came in at number 44 and the Xbox 360 was sitting pretty at number 96. What I don’t understand is why the Xbox 360 was so low, that’s a disgrace and travesty, Microsoft should do something about that perhaps a “Xbox 360 wedding pack” is in order.
As for other console and console related things, the Wiimote was at number 15, nunchucks were 26 and the charging station made number 76. Sadly, no games were on the list.
I can understand why couples would want the Wii but that does by no means that I can grasp the overall situation of the Wii being the most wanted console over the Xbox 360 or PS3.

ok you’re a 360 fanboy, we get it already. but do you honestly have to continuosly groan about your console of preference losing to the Wii?
instead of wasting time by trying to make Wii look bad, why don’t you try to give a positive reasoning why the casual market should buy a 360?
they are the crowd that got PS2 to the sales numbers it holds. they are the ones that have to be convinced if MS want those kinds of sales numbers.
you’re constant crying about Wii isnt going to change anything. all it will do is make you sound like a fool to alot of people and really unhappy when you realise 360 didnt get the sales it could have because everyone called it hardcore when it needed to be mainstream.

You don’t get it. COUPLES want the Wii. Lonely single boys want the 360. So yeah, if you can get a girlfriend, get a Wii, if you can’t, the 360 is perfect for you, it has lots of games like Dead or Alive so you can watch cartoons in bathing suits, while the Wii fans are having fun with real women.
