PS3 may have really good graphics, XBox360 may have the best shooting games such as Halo series and Call of duty series, but clearly, Nintendo Wii is the best of the three with its revolutionary controller small cpu and the game super smash brawl

While this wouldn’t be ideal for many games, it has great potential:

A pair of these things would allow one to be far more engaged in a game, if they could be made to work with a ton of games and scenarios, from driving cars to picking up items to opening doors.
