I plan on buy this laptop and downgrade from what I have so I can't and want to know if it'll work out before purchase.

I'm more of a GC fan than Wii and will be probably only play Super Smash Brawl.

Toshiba:

AMD N660 3Ghz Dual Core Processor
ATI 4250 HD 256MB-1.9GB GPU
1366x768
M880G chipset

That what I was hoping for, I just want games to play smoothly.

Pikmin 1-2
Pokemon XD: Gale of Darkness
Super Smash Brawl/Melee
Digimon Rumble Arena
Prince of Persia
F Zero

I probably should have mentioned this will be on the Linux OS

Being on Linux is going to kill a bit of the speed. Windows 7 64-bit is best.

Like five ten percent down?

It doesn't matter if so, as I said, I just want the games I do play to play smoothly. I don't mind a small amount of lag but choppy-ness is bad.

Depends on the game. In some cases it can be more than a 50% drop in performance, in others there is almost no difference.

Also I will have to disagree with SS here. That cpu is fine but that gpu is not sufficient for a lot of games, even with a 1x internal resolution.

Well, when you have a $600 budget you get what you can, they had a good Acer but I've had to many bad experiences and I wanted a OEM with good Linux support. I tend to stay Intel since I'm a huge AMD/ATI fan.
