Wii bestseller in Canada

Why are people buying PS3s? Wii outsold them 5:1! Interestingly enough, PS2 outsold both 360 and PS3! What ever happened to the "NEXT GEN" mantra? Sony has to cut PS2 production at some point but with those PS3 numbers, they will milk it for all it's worth.

The only thing the PS3 is good for is smashing on the ground. Seriously the PS3 has so many problems to it, and too many people still think that it will be just like the PS2. They are somewhat starting to listen.

Cheap BluRay player. The keyword here is "CHEAP"! $600+ for a system and it ships with composite cables! Thanks for pioneering the HD era Sony. Sony deserves those low sales numbers! HA! Now excuse me while I look for RF input on my $3000 1080p plasma.

Why are there still PS2s for sale? That generation should be dead for sony; sony fans should just give up until price on ps3 goes down a LOT.

Wow. PS2 is selling more than the Xbox 360, never saw that one coming. I'm Canadian, so this makes me happy to see that we like the Wii more than the PS3.
