Let's see... the Wii is shitty, but it's cheap and it's got Zelda and Mario and Smash Brothers and Paper Mario! And honestly, Smash Brothers is so good that it's probably worst the cost of the console. So, it wins. Plus, you can play all the cool Gamecube games you missed, like Tales of Symphonia and Skies of Arcadia Legends. So far, not a single RPG or strategy game or puzzle game on it worth playing, which sucks, but I see the Wii coming out ahead. Plus, it's big in Japan, so there'll be plenty of fun and creative games eventually coming out for it. Just.. not many yet. I waited in line 17 hours to get a Wii for my girlfriend,and she loves the hell out of it. So, yeah. If you have a girlfriend, definitely get one, they'll play with you!
The 360 has some cool games, but I see it kind of falling off the map soon since it is DEAD in Japan (where most good games come from). If you're REALLY into first person shooters, I'd pick it up, but yeah. I'm not a fan in the least.
The PS3 is a fucking piece of shit without a single good game. The PS1 and the PS2 were AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING systems with literally a hundred or so GREAT games on each system. The PS3 has not a single good game.
Honestly, the PS2 is still the best system around (fuck, Persona 3 and Odin Sphere just came out for it a few months ago, and those games are amazing! And Atlus is doing Persona 4 for it also! Plus, have you really played through La Pucelle, Phantom Brave, Disgaea 1 and 2, or Makai Kingdom yet? Didn't think so.. the ps2 RULES!), though the Nintendo DS has the only games I currently care about. So, yeah.. get a DS.
