Valve's Gabe Newell: Wii "More Valuable" Than Xbox, PlayStation

The Wii is "more valuable" than the Xbox or PlayStation 3, says Valve Software's Gabe Newell, which is why the fact that the Half-Life maker doesn't have a single project in the pipeline for Nintendo's system is an "obvious" weakness:

You can think of the Xbox 360 as pretty much a PC and a PlayStation as kind of a PC. The Wii gives you a bunch of problems that don’t fit into that model. You can’t think of it as graphics, CPU, texture bandwith scaling, you have to think of it as more fundamentally, and I think it’s more valuable. I think it’s more interesting than just graphics chip – CPU combination. It’s the machine I have at home. The fact that we don’t have anything in development on it even though it represents big opportunities as a whole, it’s an obvious hole in our strategy.

I vote for Portal.
