Wii.... at first. I'm more interested in it. Some games coming out for it sound really fun. Some of me does wish that Nintendo would focus more on traditional gaming rather than being different. Knowing that not every single game will use the Wii-mote was another small deciding factor. I know most will, but I could not imagine playing Super Smash Bros with that crazy device. Wii just sounds like it's going to be all kinds of fun.

I'm also getting a Wii for multiplayer gaming. I have a PS2, but ever since I got it, I've only got to play it with someone else a handfull of times. With a Wii I could play with my girlfriend and her sister... or just her sister. When they're both over here, the only game for PS2 that they want to play is Katamari. I'll pick up a Wii knowing for sure I'll have a coupke of people to play with against. Games like Mario tennis are mad fun, but made for multiplayer. Playing solo isn't nearly as fun.

I'd like to get a PS3 as well, but I have to wait for a price drop, and more games I'd really want to play that are Playstation specific. Some games that used to be only on Playstation are also going to be on Xbox 360. When I think of Xbox, I think of sports and driving games. It seemed to me that Playstation had more variety of different games that interested me. Now 360 is sounding pretty good, with many different games. Dead Rising is looking and sounding pretty sick. Right now I want to lean more towards a PS3, but can't really because there really isn't much of a difference between the two right now.

I got a PS2 mainly for Smackdown and GTA, but now both series are for both consoles. Most games I have for PS2 are out for all the consoles (Ar ot least 2) like X-Men Legends, Burnout, Hulk Ultimate Destruction. I heard the Katamari series is donw, which is sad, but a Katamari for PS3 could make me want one over an Xbox 360.

I'd like to own both and get the best of both types of gaming, but I won't be able to afford a PS3 anytime soon. So to make my rambling short: Wii, then maybe in a year which ever console has better games.
