Wii > PS3 because DS > PSP because Fun > Graphics

OTOH, I'll probably buy one, but after I get a PS3

a wireless Xbox 360 controller is $50...and it probably didn't cost Microsoft nearly as much to design as the Wii-mote cost Nintendo. And you still have to pay $400 for a 360. I'll bet the PS3 controller is gonna be at least $50...and it's the practically they same thing they've had since the PS1.
complaining about nickel-and-diming when you're getting a good as hell deal to begin with is weaksauce.
