Sometimes it's hard to make decisions. You are given options such as the turkey sandwich and the tuna sandwich, but which should you choose? You don't have enough money for both and the two seem equally delicious.

| The PS3 will cost $499 for just the basic 20GB version. It's best that you have your rich uncle buy it for Christmas. |
Console Price
Winner: Wii
|
Good news! Instead of buying that iPod nano, you could invest your money in a Nintendo Wii! At only $250, Wii wins over the PS3. |
| Skip lunch today. Actually, skip lunch for the next month. That should get you close to getting a $60-$100 PS3 game. |
|
Sell two or three of your old Playstation 2 games. You won't need them when you're playing $50 Wii games. |
Old Playstation games? No problem. Do you have that romantic DVD for that special someone? Go right ahead. Put it in. |
Compatability
Winner: PS3
|
Wii owners are stuck on this one. If your soulmate doesn't like games, tough luck. You can play your old Gamecube games though. |
| One word: Gargantuan. Bigger than your textbooks, heavier than your 10 lb. dumbell, here comes the PS3! |
|
The smallest game console yet. Clear away three or four of your parents' old CD cases, and your Wii has a home. |

|
November 19, 2006. You snooze, you lose. |
Play on. Your parents don't have any restriction over you. You're a free spirit. |
Parental Controls
Winner: PS3
|
Avoid giving your parents the manual. They can bar you from "bad" games. |
| You can play with other people in the Playstation Network Platform, browse the internet, and buy some music. That means there's nothing speical. |
|
Besides communicating with other peers and having a Virtual Console, stay connected with the latest news, forecasts, and message boards. |
| Resembling the previous Dualshock, the remote upgraded its analogue sensitivity, improved its buttons, and has limited motion sensing. It has no more vibration. Boring. |
|
Wireless and motion sensitive you ask? Yes, and they come with speakers and a rumbling device.The Wii remote has it all and if that's not enough, there are plenty of upgrades. |
| "The PS3 is just misunderstood." |
Decision
3-5 in favor of Wii

"Wii sounds like 'we.' No confusion. No need to abbreviate. Just Wii." |
