Some interesting tidbits

With the imminent release of the Wii, I'm forced to make some tough monetary decisions. While I am certainly going to buy the console, the question becomes: what else do I buy with it?

I'll want another controller (probably like $50? I can't find a price), so that will cost me. Twilight Princess ($50) is also a gimme, and I'm leaning toward Trauma Center ($50) or Red Steel ($50) as well, but that leaves me without a good multiplayer game other than Wii Sports. Perhaps Rayman ($50)? Let's not forget the component cables ($20 and which, for some weird reason, apparently won't be available at launch?) so I can actually get a decent picture.

All in all, it looks to be an expensive weekend. But here's a fun fact. The Metro claimst that the ratio of software to PS3 sales so far is 0.98, meaning there are a lot of people out there who bought a PS3 and NO GAMES.

Also, it seems that Sony is trying to push the PSP as the handheld that will get you (re?) laid. A noble cause, to be sure, but I think the ladies might like the DS Lite better.
