It looks to be like the XBox and PS3 are engaged in format wars right now, so maybe Wii is a good choice while I wait to see which format becomes dominant in the market.
BTW consoles won't decide which format is dominant, the rest of the HDTV owning market will. -- The universe is governed by the aggressive use of force. Hows this for a little note! Oh, and YARRRRR!! - Petwraith I prefer the term RAWR - Xorus |

Originally by: Viktor Fyretracker i wouldnt invest in HDDVD or Blu-Ray yet. odds are both will get owned by the perfectly good DVD format that has a installed base bigger then the VCR and close to that of the microwave oven.
also the new DVD formats arent a major upgrade to DVD, DVD was a HUGE upgrade to VHS however HD-DVD and Blu-Ray are not huge upgrades to DVD. whoppdie do high def, and your typical home electronics consumer cant tell the difference other then the TV is bigger.

...not that this has anything to do with consoles. Each of their games only work on the appropriate console (ofc), so the format used is not that relevant. ----------

People are only going to get aggrivated here so why don't we all just say "I prefer the <insert console you prefer here> because <reasons here>" instead of bashing the others, THEN, when we have compiled a list of the good points of all 3 consoles we will have the data we need to compare them.
I prefer the Nintendo Wii because I am looking for something different in a console, The Wii will allow me to interact in way that my desktop does not allow.

I have never owned a console, mainly because I never could afford one, but also because I never needed one. But if I were to choose, I'd go for an Xbox 360 now, mainly because there's already a few good games around.

Good idea...
If I buy a console, it'll probably be the Wii. Not because the others aren't good - in fact, they are awesome - but because the Wii is 1. cheaper and 2. Very interesting and probably the best with friends around.

I've decided to go with the Wii, for a few reasons:
1. It's cheapest 2. It's innovative 3. EA is behind it, and I like their sports games (Tiger Woods, Madden, etc) 4. It is VERY multi-player friendly 5. Built in Wi-Fi, which is good because I can't connect CAT5 to it 6. Two words: Smash Brothers
I may buy a PS3/XBox360 in the future once the format wars end, but not for now. Thanks to all who posted useful information.
I would suggest people continue to post only positive attributes about each system, and avoid posting anything negative about any other system. This way people who see this thread can also get some useful information from it. -- The universe is governed by the aggressive use of force. Hows this for a little note!

My friends and I are all HUGE Tiger Woods fans, and have played every version since 2004, and the Wii version, if done right, could be really fun. -- The universe is governed by the aggressive use of force. Hows this for a little note! Oh, and YARRRRR!! - Petwraith I prefer the term RAWR - Xorus |

When I say behind it, I mean they're willing to design for it, not that they are the man behind the curtain in the Wizard of Oz. -- The universe is governed by the aggressive use of force. Hows this for a little note! Oh, and YARRRRR!! - Petwraith I prefer the term RAWR - Xorus |
