So dont go on rumors because Nintendo said Wii has additional capabilities which will be announced as per the launching formalties are over.
Les come to talk is it good to add VoIP to a game console? My understanding is Yes it will be an add on advantage a latest technology gift by Nintendo to us.
Which will allow players to talk to each other while playing latest games online.
If we talk about this latest feature then it is not new, Sony Playstation 2, which have cross 5years allows gamers to communicate each other while playing with the help of headsets.

What is the best gaming system? The one - best in performance? best in price? is it PS 3 from sony, Microsoft Xbox 360 or Nintendo Wii from Nintendo?
The best answer of anything is a matter of individual opinion, so here’s mine: my answer is based on console information and consoles reviews.
The Nintendo Wii is designed for a specific kind of gamers than that of Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 games. I just simplfy what I means One who is working with a gaming industry and one is a Game player, I feel both them have different destinations and different taste so i put wii gamers on different platform something different from other two game console which are also know to be best gaming system in United states.
Here first I had compare the Xbox 360 with Playstation 3.
In many reviews I have seen maximum nubers goes to Xbox 360 May be because of popularity across the globe, I am talking in numbers, other wise PS 3 and Xbox 360 both gaming systems are pack with high definition games and entertainment with lots of power in them.
IF we comapre graphics of both the game console then the clear winner for graphics goes to Xbox 360. As earlier as I said it may be because of XBox 360 was released one year before Playstation 3 gaming system in United States
With the addition value of $150 Xbox 360 provides HD DVD. where as Playstation 3 comes with Blu- Ray disc. Some reviews say Xbox 360 wins due to the seperate unit of DVD player.
So after clear cut victory of xbox 360 over PS 3 in some one individuals review let us now talk on Wii vesus Xbox 360. Now days suddenly i have seen many Nintendo fan, I too is a big Nintendo fan, reason my first gaming system is Nintendo wii. I and many fans of wii love to play interactive games,
One of the cheapest gaming system in US is Nintendo wii costing $249. That why I select Nintendo Wii gaming system.
Once again it individual perception what he or she like so just check it out and Buy your favourite gaming system in Us.
