To the thread starter: Wii is the dominate console for 2008, not either of the good machines.
It won't be. After Mario Kart and Brawl are released, what big titles are really on their way? Nintendo generally release their biggest games at the start of the console's life, and they sure as hell won't be releasing anything big this Christmas.

I'd love Nintendo to release a new IP but with the success they've had with all this Wii software (Play, Sports, Fit) it doesn't look likely.

Wii Fit. That's assuming "big" means "major seller".

Some people are ignorant to think that playing the Wii will substitute exercising and playing sports.

WTF's the point of Wii Fit?

I think some people are expecting the Yoga model to be included with the package.

Leaving the game itself aside, I'd love to hook up the balance board to GlovePIE.

It is going to be a weak year for 360, with HDDVD and all but I think it will still top the PS3. It wont be a good year though

HDi my friend. We all know those 360 games were just holding people over until the HDi gaming frenzy began.

Emotion Engine = PS2 hardware

No difference between the 2 PS3's performance.
