| Basically..if your a more serious gamer...the Xbox 360 is right for you. But if you are more casual, like to play with friends..just have fun, then the Wii is for you. |

I was hoping to get a Wii around this time but still no decent games, especially multiplayer.
May just go for a 360. |

| If you like the games on the 360 better you should get it. I keep holding off on the 360 because a lot of the games I want for it come out for PC as well, and I like that better than consoles. |

| Get the Xbox 360, The games on it are great. You can buy XBL Arcade Games and Movies using the Marketplace Points. Movies, Trailers, Gameplay Videos, and Clips are available in High Definition format if you have an HDTV. The 360 can be plugged to an HDTV via Component Cables and can be viewed at 720p, 1080i, or 1080p. |

The Wii is worth it just for Zelda and Mario Galaxy.
But if you're looking for a system that will hold your attention for the 3-4 months in between fantastic Nintendo releases then the 360 is your best bet. Geometry Wars, NHL 08, Dynasty Warriors Gundam, Eternal Sonata, Blue Dragon, Lumines, Halo 3, Call of Duty 4... tons of other B titles that are WAY more fun than any non-Mario/Zelda release for the Wii... I wouldn't give a AAA rating to ANY 360 game other than Geometry Wars... but it sure does have a good collection of games to pick up and play when I'm bored. |

| Basically, if you don't have a really good computer and want to play computer games...then XBox 360 is good because a lot of the same games that come on the PC are also on XBox, granted they usually aren't as good (graphically and game-play) as their PC counterparts, but are still adequate. If you have a decent PC but want to play some Wii Exclusives (because they are Nintendo games...Zelda, Mario, Metroid etc) then the Wii is your buddy! It's less money than the XBox 360 and from all indications...a more stable, and fun system, esp if you play with family or friends. |

Did you come across the border? There are plenty of Game Stops, EB Games, Best Buy and Circuit City stores that are bound to have some. Online as well....you will probably find them cheaper over here too. |

Average Ebay price is well over $400 for new ones. Amazon just changed their limit from 3/month to 3, period. |
