How heavy is the Wii? I'm just wondering, because a friend of mine owns a PS3 and yesterday I just came over and moved it around and saw that it's really, really heavy, considered that it's just a console. My PS2, which I never use, is waaaaaaay lighter! So how does the Wii compare to other Nintendo consoles and/or PlayStations?

It's lighter and smaller than an ordinary ps2 at least from memory. I haven't moved either units in a while.

yeah it is very light, relatively speaking.

The Wii weighs just 3.82 pounds, where the Xbox 360 and PS3 tip the scales at 9.9 and 11 pounds, respectively. The Wii is also considerably smaller than the other consoles, at just 8.5" x 6.2" x 1.7"; the Xbox 360 measures 12.2" x 10.2" x 3.3", while the PS3 is a whopping 12.8" x 10.8" x 3.9" -- about double the size of the Wii.

for those of us living in the majority of the world who has adopted the metric system ( :P ), that is 1.73kg. I've bought blocks of cheese that weighed more!
