Despite the buildup and hype around its arrival in November, the PS3 has been outsold so far — at a rate of almost 2-to-1 — by the Nintendo Wii, according to USA Today. In February, the Wii was the top-selling console video game system with an estimated 335,000 sold, outpacing the Microsoft Xbox 360 (228,000) and the PS3 (127,000), according to The NPD Group.

Check out this video I found online. It’s just waaay too great (and too funny) not to share with as many people as possible. The song is called “How to Kill a Brand” by Doc Adams, a parody sung to the tune of “How to Save a Life” by Fray. It sums up perfectly why the I’m not at all excited with the PS3.

Step 1 you make your console cost the most,
You beat your chest and proudly boast.
Despite no good exclusive games,
You make a bunch of ridiculous claims.

Then ignore our need to play online
Don’t make it fun like XBOX Live.
Used BluRay, which I don’t need.
Now you’re getting your ass kicked by the Wii.

Sony you went wrong with your PS3
I’ll just keep playing my 360
Hope this song has helped you understand
Now you know how you killed your brand.

Wii want you to play.
