Well i advise you to get Wii. Because the wiiremote is cool as it is. Also Alot of fantastic games are coming soon. I also have 360 i play my Wiimore but GTAIV is coming out on 360 so it may have attention. But by far Wii has awsoem games coming out soon or the current ones
Like : Mario Galxy, Mario Kart Wii, Wii Fit and Super smash bros brawl.
But mate this is your choice, decide wisely

Well It depends on what type of genre you are into... I believe the best console for fps(first person shooter)/action would have to be Xbox 360
The Nintendo Wii has sold a Large amount of coppies but i think that it is mostly because of the controlls e.g. the wii has got very unique (spelling) gameplay with the wiimote and nunchuck controller allowing you to be right in the action
Ps3... lets just not go there... it is pretty good but people much rather the wii and 360
There are a tone of games that win people over to the consoles so i wont go into them... Like Adommer said its up to you... we are just here to help

Edit: heres a video u might me intrested in

Depends on what type of games you are after. I love my Wii, if you're into Nintendo type games, and want something a little different to the norm the Wii is a great little machine. Cheap, sturdy, and a ten ton bucket load of fun.

Really, it's a choice between either a Wii or one of the other two, and if it's not the Wii you're after, then for goodness sakes get a PS3!

The 360 is a dying console. It's been out way too long and as such will only get less popular, not to mention the amount of problems people have had with them. They can kept bringing out as many models as they want but it's still the same old 360.

The PS3 has been built to last. You'll get almost all the same games as you will get with the 360 but they will be better. You don't have to pay to play online. Great multimedia machine. And less chance the thing's going to die on you

The PS3 has only begun to show us what it's capable of. If you're going to want a console that's going to last you more than a year then dude, get a PS3.

Think about the type of games you really want to play, and make your decision based on that.

But hey, that's just my opinion

Now this vidceo wasn't entirely true. Sony is a multynational corperarion selling mutlyple products not just gaming. The person in the vid said " Ps3 will be become bankrupcy " Now like i said Sony doesn't just sell games it sells a vast range of electonics including the fantastic sony vio. That vid has not good informetion. Also the 360 is begining to fail even though i have it. No offense to 360 owners ( lol also to myself ) There is a chance for the 360 to get back on top but no beat the wii. Um the person looking for a console It is your decision i'm only giving you advice but 360 is losing abit but is getting back ontop

Your right Adommer he did say that PS3=bankrupcy... not the 'multynational corperarion' known as sony... i am sure we all know that sony are not going bankrupt anytime soon...

Umm this Vid is on someones oppinion and if u would like 2 argue against it do it on youtube... i didn't make the vid

Anyway umm i would now say that a better choice would be the X-box 360 or the wii depending on the games that you like...

im leaning towards the 360 at this stage. i do love the Wii one of my brothers has it. and i have too say its a lot of fun too play with the wiiremote. My other brother has a Ps3 buut after 6months the lazy ass still only has fight night round 3 that game is as boring as hell. and so far he has only rented oblivion and motorstorm. oblivion didnt really do it for me. but motorstorm was pretty sweet. at this point i dont know anny one with a 360 plus i wouldnt mind finishing the halo series and with gta 4 coming out it shoould be pretty sweet

To tell you now i advise you to get 360 because your bro has ps3 and aslo your other sibling has wii. Last thing to do is get 360. But mate your decision not mine.

Shyguy it wasn't refered to you lol it was refered to the person don't worry. No but the vid explains about sales but the person who made that vid has some things to tweak.

The only smart thing in this case would be to get a 360... that is if you all live in the same house... because it would be silly to have two of the same consoles

I have a Wii and a 360 and they work well together since they are such different consoles. Right now I mainly play my 360 because I'm really online playing online games in something like COD4 when I get a chance and that's why I went for the 360 of the PS3 since you really can't compare the 2 online services. Sure you have to pay for online, but you get what you pay for.

Hang on hang on. You already have a Wii and a PS3 in your house? Holy jebus wow. And yet you want to get yourself another? How big is your house? Do you have to go on a big trek to get to the two other consoles? Why don't you spend those hundreds of dollars that you want to spend on a 360 and buy some games for the other two consoles so that they're actually worth playing?!
