I just bought a Sega Saturn, which is enough for me right now. Eventually I'll own a Wii and PS3. Couldn't really say which I'm more excited about (though funds will probably dictate I purchase a Wii first).

I might consider an X360 if they make Shenmue 2 backwards compatible and the system gets under $200... yes, I know that will take a long time.
 
I saw aWii in a demo kiosk. I was totally unimpressed. The graphics are very last gen. The models are blocky and the textures a low res blurry mess. Basically looks like a gamecube with a gimmicky controller. The controller did work well, but with the graphics looking so bad it isn't worth it for me. I will just stick with the 360 until I am able to find a PS3 to buy.

Mayhap the kiosk just had a crappy screen? I played the 360 @ a future shop, and the glare of the overhead lights, coupled with the heavy plastic screen over the tv, made me think the console's graphics were worse than the original xbox's...
And remember, while todays insane market is screaming for better, insanely better graphics, the graphics are not the game. You can have an amazing game and storyline, that plays well and has no bugs, but has graphics a few years outdated. And really, thats the best type of game in the end.

I'm not having a go at you, but I don't quite understand this concept... you seem to love old, blocky retro games with truly horrible graphics (e.g. Lynx games), but a system with "slightly less impressive than the best ever" graphics is not worth your time?

If a game's fun, it's fun, the graphics shouldn't matter.
