The Onion takes a stab at the Wii (and PS3)

The Onion, in full-on satiric overdrive, took some stabs at both the Wii and PS3 in a fairly funny side-by-side comparison. Taking the everyman approach to labelling each system's strengths and weaknesses in a full-on 'two systems enter, one system leaves' battle in the Thunderdome, they gauge such aspects as 'special features' and 'the way your peers will view you.' They've got some curse words in there, so we included their observations into the post, past the jump.

I know it's satire, but it did seem strange that they would paint the wii as a system where one might say "I'll come over, just don't tell anyone". If anything it should read "You have a fucking wii? Can I come over?!"

they seem a little ps3 biased, they are going overboard with the strange idea that nintendo isnt cool at all... i dont know about other places but where I am the wii is probably 10 times more popular than ps3.
Seriously" everyoen wishes it were a ps3"? that sounds stupid lol
