Right now I have the 360 (still have my Xbox too) and I really love it. A great system for sure.

I will get the Wii most likely next Feb. I just think the PS3 is really shooting itsself in the foot with all their claims and broken promises. It almost seems every week is a new blunder on their part.

I have a Gamecube, SNES, Gameboy SP and DS right now so a Wii is just a given that I will get it. I just really hope this idea of their whole Nintendo library being able to be downloaded comes to light.

I also hope that Guitar Hero II comes to 360 because I do not want to buy a PS2 (although I came really close this weekend after another jam session of Guitar Hero at my friends place).

I am going to get WII, not only is it the only system I can afford, Xbox never really appealed to be, and PS3, um no.  I guess I am just a Nintendo Fanboy; I just like Nintendo products!

Its not that i don't want a Wii, its just that i'm not into the games the wii has, i'm not a zelda fan, i'd probably play red steel for about an hour.  Its a fun system i've played it quite a bit, but i think the games are for a different audience than me.  I'd rather play Resistance, or Halo, or this fall when Assassins creed comes out, and oblivian.  not a big fan of mario anymore.  although the occasional mariokart on super nes does happen.

Haha, rockin it old school huh,  I actually had one of those too. my favorite right b4 the ps3 was actaully dreamcast, man was res. evil fun on that thing.  but i think the game poll is more for the 3 newer systems.  I strongly recoment the ps3, i'm not a fanboy i just think its a better machine, give it some time and the game library will grow, thats all 360 has on it right now.

I'll bet that if someone came out with a system that just played video games (without all this internet connectivity, DVD playing, multimedia library crap), they would make a killing.

True, the Wii can't play dvd's, or cd's, however it can play gc games...but it does have wifi, which is really cool...my friend just got super mario 3, its pretty sweet.....I think if james bond 007 ever comes out (goldeneye) i will probably fork over the 250 for the wii.

Golden Eye on Wii would seal the deal for me.

I don't see whats so special about the Wii?? except the rather atractive price tag.  But yeah the Wii games i would most likely buy would be goldeneye, mariocart, and probably off of the downloadable content would be super mario 3, just cause its a classic and you have to have it.

I guess people like being able to play in different ways then the "standard" controllers.  Personally I think they could go really far with the Wii, but I suppose only time will tell in how innovative they are.

Also, being able to play the other games should be a huge draw, I know it would be for me if I actually had time to game and had some money.
