nintendo`s launch will be the most sucessful due to the fact that they will probibly be enough consoles to meet demand before christmas where the 360 and ps3 had/has nowhere near enough consoles to meet demand.

sony wish - the graphics performance of the RSX on the PS3 is vastly inferior to the ATI 48 PP card in the 360. im not going over it again. there are other threads on DH in which I explain it in great detail. As for your comment on "profit motive" - I was directing you to ebay, as EVERYONE is doing it - buying one then trying to sell it for 2-3 times the price, perhaps you missed the point I was making.

I could sooner get Duke Nukem: Forever than a PS3 so I'm going with the Wii. That will change if I don't see Wii's on the store shelves by the end of the year. I want to see those promised 4 million units cause daily calls to the stores has shown they have nothing.

i wont vote at the moment as the ps3 hasnt launched here in Australia yet.

i will add though, that the Wii is the most successful console launch EVER in Aus with about 34k units sold in 4 days (x360 was previous best with around 30k)

Take a drive west, i'm sure you'll come across half a dozen stores filled with Wii's for sale.

Wii by far, the ps3 is too expensive and only serves the teenaged kids, yet the wii serves the little kids and teens, it is also much cheaper

i voted niether. both of these consoles are nothing compared to the 360. I bought the Wii, played it for about an hour or so, then put it back in the box and returned it. Then when i got home, i just got on Xbox live nd played for the rest of the day! Nothing compares to the 360 for me.

Xbox live arcade is sooo addictive, they've just released Worms and, MAN I can't get enough of it.
PS3 is too expensive, refuse to cut my arm for it but I will get it later when price reduce because of Blu-ray and later release games. Right now I'm very happy with X360.

If I had a choice between the 3 it would be a 360...soooooo many games that are exclusive to that console that make us PC gamers cringe. PS3 means shit to me, and the Wii is awesome for only a few titles (Wii Sports>Anything else) the rest I wouldn't touch with a 10 foot Wiimote.
