Welcome to Gaia! ::

Stabbing him in the throat stare .

ninja or would it.. >.> surprised

Oh, I got another idea. Give him a Revo controller, watch him suck at a game, then switch it over to the GC shell, and see him play a game like a pro, of which he will say "See? I told you this setup works better!" That'll like, totally embarass him when his friends find out he sucks at Revolution games..... xd

Actual Answers to Your Question:
1.Give him the number of PS2 games, then give him the number of GOOD PS2 games. *Repeat with Gamecube.
2.Repeat #1 with X-Box and Gamecube.
3.Repeat #1 with PSP and DS.
4.Repeat #1 with any portable before DS and Game Boy.
5.Let him know that without Square and Capcom PS would have died years ago.
6.Force him to play GTA until his eyes bleed.
7.Force him to play every FF on PS-PS2

I COULD go on but I've ranted too much tonight.
(Those last two are just my personal favorite tortures.)

well, i have a criminal backround and Capcom's D&D arcade games rocked... lol

Do what I did To get my cousin to go from wanting a PS3, to wanting a Wii:

Next time he starts talking about the PS3 tell him that They completely ripped off the Wii. First, when they updated the PS3 to show the final model, it looked nearly EXACTLY like the Wii. also, with their final update of it, they put a motion censor into the PS3 controller, but it sucks because all it can do is tell if the controllers being tilted, but it'll probably COMPLETELY rip off the Wii after they break into nintendo and steal their controller software rolleyes

Like all Sony fanboys/girls, he'll begin going on about how Nintendo copied the PS first. Well he's wrong. The rumble pack started in the N64, and if Nintendo hadn't started gaming off, There would be no gaming industry whatsoever.

Also, you need to go on about how awesome the controller is, no matter how much he puts it down. Tell him about how it works. "You can swing a sword with it!" "The controller IS the gun!" Show him a few videos about the Wii.

Also tell him about how the Wii will be online even when it's turned off. The first thing he'll say is "Exactly! How stupid is that?" It isn't. It lets you get updates for your games! again, he'll say that's stupid.... but it isn't. It will add more bosses, more levels, more features, better gameplay, more gameplay. Imagine your favorite game, you beat it, you're happy you beat it and sad it's over. The Wii updates your game, and you can play more! Frickin' awesome!
There's also the fact that you can download games from the NES, SNES, N64, and a lot of Sega Genisis Games onto it. He'll say that's stupid, probably, but he'll think that's awesome once you've turned him into a Nintendo fanboy.

Also tell him it's compatible with the DS. There's some major potential right there. Think if there was a sequal to a DS title on the Wii. You could like, after you beat the DS game, Transsfer your data to the sequal, so you'd have all the items and stuff from your original file (I don't know if it CAN do this, but that would rock out loud. (I hate playing a sequal and having to go and get the items you busted your butt for AGAIN (I should like submit this idea to nintendo or some game company(I want a Trace Memory sequal! ><) wink )) And then go on about any possibilitiesnthere could be for this. Ooh! another idea! You could be playing the Wii game, and your DS could be like a comunicator to like the people you work for in the game, AND a map O_o That'd be frickin' sweet.

He'll be going on about the PS3's features as well, and every time he does tell him something about the Wii that kicks the crap out of it. You may find yourself repeating things that kick the crap out of something the PS3 can do, but that's because every feature on the Wii is so good it can take out multiple PS3 features wink

Show him some vids from here: http://wii.nintendo.com/home.html

If after all this he says the Wii is completely retarded, Then he is what I like to call an "arrogant wannabe fanboy who defends a piece of crap without any knowledge of it", and need to be slapped, shot, tied to a cinderblock, and thrown into the ocean to die.

Also, tell him that the Wii controller will be so easy to use, that if he sucks at it, then he's probably really bad at games anyway.

Sorry, about the bits of ranting throughout this, I hope I helped.

what does?
