I've been wanting a PS3 for a year now, but I can't seem to save my money up for it, but I think my brake may finall be here, this holiday season, all the games I want coming out I am going to get for Christmas But No PS3 Back On topic, but with a large back-log of Wii Games I don't know if I should try to catch up and be ready for next year or get a PS3!
Explanation for PS3:
1. I want to play InFamous, Little Big Planet, Gran Turismo 5, Flower and Several others titles inculding Multiplatform like Street Fighter IV.
2. For the Blue-Ray!
3. For the actually good online service that is free.
4. I would like to see the Folding@Ho ... program.
5. Finally It would be convienient to have my music and movies all in one place.
Expanation for the Wii:
1. I still need to buy titles like NPC Pikmin, Little King's Story, and The Conduit.
2. Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom and Monster Hunter 3 are coming out early next year and if I get a PS3 I will be short of cash.
3. I have a ton of games on the VC and WiiWare I still need to get!
4. I would like to get another Motion Plus and a Wii Zapper.

Well there's my info, tell me what you think!

I would get the PS3, then get your most wanted Wii game, and then how ever many ps3 games you can get...

If you can only afford just the ps3 i don't see a point in a system with no games.

As much as I hate the Playstation 3 & it's library of games; I think Sony did a pretty nice job announcing their PS3 Slim & price drop to $299... but it's still pricey to me!

If I was desperate enough to want a PS3 for any reason; it'd be ONLY for playing my Blu-Ray movies on my standard tv in my room... since I don't normally like going into my living room and using the Blu-Ray player in there!

So if you want my honest opinion; I'd honestly think you should go for the Wii games you want to build to your collection/play... and games you missed but had your eye on!

Trust me; I think I'd rather wait for another price drop. That is until the PS3 & it's new PS3 Slim model to become at least $150! I wouldn't care less if it took another freaking year if that happened; but I've always hated Sony! They're just too freaking slow & the poorest company of the 3 consoles; so it's no wonder they've been in last place this entire time!

what's the deal with all these PS3 threads in a Nintendo foruim?! I don't see the inverse on PS3 ones so why support the competence?!
is really getting annoying. If you want to buy a PS3 just do it or talk about it in a PS fan forum not a nintendo one!

If it were 2008 with no new announcements, I'd say get a PS3. Since Wii is now steppin with the big dogs though, you might want to hold off a bit on PS3. Especially since you like games like LKS. It seems Wii is the only home with titles like that. That kind of "charm" anyway.

Unless you plan on just staring admiringly at your PS3, you'd also plan to purchase some games for it, too. The cost won't end with the hardware. If you've got the smash to pick up a few games and the interest in playing both systems going forward, then it's hard to argue against you as a Wii owner a friggin PS3 for 300 bucks.

For my part, I'm gonna wait to pick up a slim until they sell a couple of million units to make sure the kinks are ironed out.

Just buy the PS3 in 2 or 3 years like I'm gonna. I'm too busy with Nintendo and PC games to care about what games I might be missing on t'other formats. Keep the faith! There so many awesome games in the next 12months on Wii.

And start completing the games you've got one at a time, instead of being distracted by other games that would just be added to the pile if you bought them. I've got sooo many games to get through and I'm starving myself until I literally run out of things to play. Hard times after all.

You really DON'T need to buy The Conduit. And instead of NPC Pikmin i would buy NPC Pikmin 2...

PS3 is nice. the PS3 Slim even nicer. But there's a lot epic stuff coming to wii too... Red Steel 2, New Super Mario Bros Wii, Metroid: Other M, Super Mario Galaxy 2, FFCC: The Crystal Bearers and - as you said - Monster Hunter 3 and Tatsunoko vs. Capcom...

.... and maybe some day there will be Project H.A.M.M.E.R. too...

No not really, but PS2 games are about as common as being able to find a Mario game!

I'll start with the Conduit and Yes I do need it, why, because one of my friends has it and has been wanting to play me forever, also I want it too. As for NPC Pikmin, I live in the US and I'm a fan of playing games in chroniclogical order. I would like to end it by saying I got nostalgia just looking at Project H.A.M.M.E.R. in Nintendo Power, oh what it could have been

I'm 99% sure the Wii forum would exist regardless of whether you decide to buy a PS3 or not.

You're in the wrong forum if you are looking for people to convince you to buy a PS3.

Just flip a coin and be done with it. Heads - wii games, tails - ps3. Problem solved.
