[tdyoung1958]

So we are gonna ditch the pig and just watch movies and such via Netflicks

What's the best (easiest to use) game system I can do that with

Leaning towards Nintendo or a PS3

I have watched netflix on Roku, PS3 and Wii.

Buy a roku (or similar) if you are going to be using it much. No need to start up your game system to watch TV.

Roku + Amazon Prime and I ditched Netflix.

Do not use the Nintendo Wi. I use my PS3, you can see a big difference in quality if you use the Nintendo. It is not HD.

PS3, Xbox 360, Roku box or even a Blue Ray player that can connect to the internet all work very well.

Although the Roku box is probably the most user friendly.

I would say a PS3. It works with Netflix and Amazon video. Also the PS3 has a built in Blu-ray/DVD player. All of this can be controlled with PS3 BD Remote Control. If you are interested in video games, the PS3 also does that as well. I think it is the most functional device and the best bang for the buck.

If you don't want to use a gaming system, some Blu-ray Disc player works too. I have Sony Blu-ray that works fairly ok for this.

I still prefer to watch it on my computer though, easier to navigate via the PC.

Up until we ditched Netflix, we used our PS3.

The good: Easy to use, good graphics, already part of the TV system, lots of childrens titles and documentaries.

The bad: Crappy interface, horrible search utility, makes "suggestions" of movies or shows I'll never watch, but limits the amount of items to be browsed. Much better searching and browsing on a computer.

If you have an iphone or itouch you can stream netflix via a hdmi converter. It works better than my ps3 since I always have to update/patch when I turn it on (rarely used). Down fall is you don't have a remote.

Roku. Or blue ray player.

Gaming the best Netflix that can give a perfect view for playing in your own gadget.

If you ever look look at the Xbox 360 for watching Netflix, the last time I checked, you ALSO need an active Xbox Live account to play Netflix on it.... BS as I do have the device, yet a feature is unavailable unless you pay their "Netflix fee"(/XBOX Live fee).

Thanks everyone, we have grandkids that play games so I think we're gonna PS3 it
