Wii problems top 15 million

After our Xbox 360 was stricken with the three red light lurgy, we headed to Dr Google to seek a prognosis. Typing in 'Xbox 360 problems' we nearly choked on our fingernails when it returned 7,530,000 results. That's a lot of problems and, from the first 100 or so pages we bothered to check, nearly all of those related to Xbox 360's red lightyitis. An outrage and no mistake.

Our consumer anger was immediately distracted, however, by the opportunity for a pointless and trivial number hunt and we probed the internet further to see how Microsoft's rivals fared in the Google problem stakes.

'PS3 problems' notched up 3,700,000 and offered a vast variety of disgruntlements, including hardware, manufacturing, pricing, software, global launch and on and on and on...

But it was Wii that stacked the top of this impromptu study, with a search for 'Wii problems' conjuring up an almighty 15,200,000 results. Who'd have thought that Nintendo's friend-for-all-the-family could be so problematic? Of course, it didn't take us long to deduce that 'problems' really translated to 'slippery handed numpties' or 'spatially spastic'.

And our conclusion to this shallow investigative analysis? Er, when we're left without a console we'll play anything. Even Google.

ive not had 1 problem with my wii that wasnt my fault and was fixed immediately after.

The only "problem" I've heard about with the Wii was the wrist straps breaking, except in no Wii game is the player supposed to throw the controller (so it's more player stupidity.)

wow whoever did this must be pretty stupid. jsut cuz you search "wii problems" in google doesnt mean that wii has 15,200,000 problems with it.....stupid....

The ps3 is fine. The price is great, since it's 400 bucks cheaper than buying a stand alone blu-ray player. I've had no problems except maybe a little controller connection problem but tht's cuz my friend and me keep switching around houses to play on and it messes with the blutooth recognization. If that makes sense, lol. Anyways.


PLAYSTATION 3 FTW!

i love the fact that people are breaking their wii-motes because the strap broke. its so funny. there is NO wiisports game that involves throwing the remote. you dont throw your bat in baseball or you racket in tennis. its sooooo stupid!!!

Wow that's more problems then there is consoles...

Some people are so clueless though.
