If you’re reading through the obituaries and see the CEO of Sony, Howard Stringer in there, it may have something to do with the fact he says the PS3 is “infinitely more fun” than the Nintendo Wii.

While speaking to the Guardian, Stringer stated, “We’ve some catching up to do, but at least we have the opportunity to connect the PS3 with the PlayStation Portable and beyond.” Oh, connectivity to the PSP? Okay, that sure is exciting… right? Meh.

“I’m happy the Wii seems to be running a bit short of hardware, the PlayStation 3 will come into its own because its [games] are infinitely more fun, demanding and exciting.”

Stringer believes the PS3 is going to come through after-all. It out-sold the Wii in Japan last month for the first time, 183,000 - 159,000. “I’m glad that the last few weeks have generated excitement about PlayStation 3,” he said. “Everyone’s stopped talking about it the way they were six months ago.”
