[Question] So which system are you getting?

Sass, duh. But it's still a bit of a dumb option since we're in the General Video Gaming forum.

Anyways, if there was a "Wii first, XBox 360 later" option, that's probably what I'd have picked. This basically sums up my reasoning. And sorry, Sony, the PS2 was too much of a hyped-up disappointment for me to put down $550 for Metal Gear Solid 4.

Wii is a no-brainer, since it's the cheapest and has my three most anticipated titles: Twilight Princess, Heroes and SSBB. Yes, of course I realize that Twilight Princess is on Gamecube, but after Matt Casamassina's impressions, I'm sold on the Wii version:

spoiler'd quote for long:

Twilight Princess may have started as a GameCube title, but it finished a Wii one. There remains this faction of gamers that refuses to accept the possibility. You know who you are. You continue to argue that because the controls were originally designed for the GameCube pad there is no hope for the Wii build. You say that your arms will get tired using the Wii remote. You speak of mirrored worlds and right-handed Link. And you know what? It's all crap. If you have the means to buy Twilight Princess for Wii and you still get it for GameCube, you are a fool. And I state that without meaning to suggest that the GCN iteration is flawed - it isn't. It's an amazing swan song for Nintendo's older system, so if you've got no other option you're still golden. But that said, it's not as good as the Wii incarnation. In fact, were it up to me and not Nintendo (and in my dreams, it is), I'd have scrapped the GCN build altogether, forcing everyone to exclusively buy the Wii version.

As for the 360, it depends on how many of its good games come out for PC. If the number is significant, my money is better spent on PC upgrades and a 360 controller for PC.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
