  12. Wii rocks because I have it and like it,also it has Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

  13. i love the xbox360 playing halo 3 on it!

  14. I know my typing stinks but ignore it i really want anything because eventhough i think my GBA is the best but i’m getting bored with it here’s my rating

    DS***

    PS3****

    WII****

    PSP***

    XBOX***and a half

    you know why i don’t have a another system1.i don’t have the money2.no that get’s me gifts will get me another system except my freind who got me my GBA but he’s probaly not gonna get me a DS eventhough i want one really badly because all my friends have it.

  15. all i have is a puny game-boy advance sp but i think the playstation 3 is the best by far other than the price i mean come on it plays ps1 and ps2 games and look at how many of them there are the DS is cool but hard to use stylus and controls plus it breaks easy if you drop it unlike my GBA advance (which i’ve dropped like a million times and still works!!!) my opinion is the all stink whether it’s malfuctioning or just expensive or just plain stinks the GBA advance rules so it doesn’t have good graphics or good library but it’s cheap,reliable and you can find games for it ANYWHERE for a cheap price again the GBA advance RULES!!!

    Play Station 3

    Wii is lame. Face it. Just because you can’t afford a real gaming system doesn’t mean the wii is good. MARS: I dont like the wii.

    jd_w98- PS3 has many good games that are not for adults. Games aren’t rated the same as movies.

    XBOX has lame games.

  17. NES RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  18. Nintendo makes systems that are not worth it. Playstation and Xbox rule. Wii and DS are boring. They have bad graphics. Who cares about a touchscreen or wand-like remote when you can have action, graphics, and blu-ray? Also, mario games are alwways rated E, E, E. Why can’t they make any T or even M? Halo 2 and Call of Duty 4 are better than Super Mario Galaxy and Mario Party DS by a long shot. This is my opinion, so disagree all you want.
