        Bwanac I probably can get you one. I will check tomorrow. If you pay for the controller, I am not trying to make money so it will be what it actually costs and I will take a photo of the receipt, and shipping would you want one

          That would be because more than double the amount of Wii's were shipped to the US than the PS3. If there were as many PS3's available as there are Wii, they would all be gone already, too.

            You bring up a valid point. However, Ninetendo would still win the market had there been similar release numbers. Take a look at the resale values... Wii's are increasing in value while PS3 prices are tanking. I really don't see PS3 prices recovering. That tells you there's a greater demand for Wii's.

            Perhaps I shouldn't have ordered that Premium PS3 tonight...muhahaha :evil:

              PS3 retails for what, 650 bucks, and was getting jacked up to 1500-2k on Ebay. It's starting to cool off for around 1k now. The Wii retails for 250, and has been going for an average of 300 bucks on Ebay now. I don't understand this "priced recovering" crap, anyone paying more than the retail for either one of these systems is nuts.

                  There were 3 Wiis on the shelves out here at the Walmart yesterday, and I saw another one out on a bestbuy shelf thursday. They're obviously available. Why would people go to Ebay?

                    the fact that only something like 200K PS3's were even AVAILABLE for sale.... and that they are re-selling for WELL over double their value.... i have no idea where you got this "prices tankded and recovering" and crap. ...you make no sense.

                    the Wii's motion controllers are a total flashback to th good ol days of Duckhunt! ...the PS3 Blue-Ray (blue laser refracts less than red so the data layering potential is sooooo much greater) the question is is if Sony's techno-gamble is going to pay off as well as it did back in the day of the Cartridge-VS-Disc technology wave. - if the Blue-Ray takes off, we are bound to see ALOT of stuff int he entertainment-center-industry change in the next few years

                    personally i think the PS3 has the greatest gaming potential, as they will NEVER be limited to how much information they can stuff onto just one disc. ...motion controllers can always be developed for the Sony later on if the Wii's "fun factor" is limited by the games Nintendo offers, or the lack-there-of. ...added bonus of the PS3 is the old systems' games still being supported and compatable with the new console - big selling point that Microsoft has been recognizing
                    ...what hasn’t been done to an m20 yet?

                        I'd like to know where they're selling for more than double... please advise. The link below sums it up... they're practically selling for retail now.
