Keep this limited to consoles you will own through 2007. Well?
I got the Wii. I'm looking at the 360 next. I'm not sure I will ever buy a PS3.

Xbox 360.
Maybe a Wii in June 2007 or whenever Smash Brothers / Mario / Metroid comes out. Once all three are out along with Zelda only then will I get a Wii.

I guess I'll just say Wii for now. I will be getting a 360 at some point, but I don't know if that will be in 2007 or beyond.

I own a Wii, I will likely be getting both PS3 and 360 by the end of 2007 as long as multiple games I like are available by then and the prices are reasonable. I'd say I'd be more likely to buy 360 by the end of 2007 than the PS3, but then again, that all depends on when PS3's killer apps arrive. I know Virtua Fighter 5 will be out in the spring, and I desperately want that, but I don't think it's worth $660 just to play one awesome game.

I have a 360 and a newly opened (naturally) wii. I feel like a proud father. Knowing myself, I'll get a PS3 when it's near the end of its life cycle just for completion's sake.

For awhile it is going to just be my Wii. Took my a lot of time to save for that, and spending money on brand new games instead of CAG games is going to keep my excess funds low for awhile.

Just got a 360 a few days ago, mostly because lots of games are starting to hit $20.
I plan on getting a Wii for Christmas, or afterwards with giftcards.
I will get a PS3 when the prices come down, or it gets some must own exclusives.

If I get that 100 core, I'll have Wii and 360 until sony has a massive price drop.

Right now I have a Slim PS2 and a DS lite. My freind just got a Wii and I mite possibly get his Gamecube for free since the lens dont work. Is their a way to replace the lens in a Gamecube?
Next year anyway will be a Xbox 360 and maybe a Wii.

All I own is the 360 and that's the only next-gen console I plan on owning.

Just a Wii. PS3 maybe in a few years when the price drops to one third what it is now and good games come out.

All of 'em... I've only got the Wii and the 360 right now though. I'll be picking up the PS3 probably next Spring... whenever Virtua Fighter 5 hits. Each system is getting enough good games to justify owning all of them.

I know Virtua Fighter 5 will be out in the spring, and I desperately want that, but I don't think it's worth $660 just to play one awesome game.You can buy the $500 model, which isn't a bad choice.
I only own a 360 right now, but I'm not giving it much support since there's really nothing I want for it right now. 2007 will be a different story, since there are many games I want.
PS3 will be my 2nd buy, without a doubt. I cannot live without Sony's first party games (which they have over 100 of them in development for PS3), and there are some key third party exclusives (FFXIII, FF vs. XIII, Tekken 6, VF5, DMC4, MGS4, SMTIV, etc.). It will probably be the console that will get all my multiplatform games too, since I like the controller and I have bad luck with my MS consoles (my Xbox and 360 have given me problems, while Sony consoles/handhelds never give me problems).
Wii will be my last. I absolutely hate Zelda, so the only game coming out this year that interests me is Elebits(sp). In the future, I want Fire Emblem, Super Smash Bros. Brawl (Although I rather play a traditional fighters like Tekken or VF anyday), Wario Ware, etc. Just not much that really interests me yet (not a Nintendo fan) and Nintendo is on a losing streak with consoles for me (N64 was one of the worst consoles I ever owned. GC was better, but still a huge disappointment).

Wii only. I'm planning to get a PS3 at some point, but it definitely won't be in 2007. I'll be picking up the Wii sometime in early to mid-2007; once the rush has died down and more games are out.

I may buy a PS3 next year if Metal Gear Solid 4 comes out.

I will own a PS3 when MGS4/FF/DMC/GT is out. The PS3 will be the only system I will be owning. For now, I'm going to stick with my PC/PS2 for gaming.

I'll probably have the Wii and PS3 by the end of next year. I'm guessing the Wii will have some more tangible content by spring time and the PS3 by Christmas of 07.

Wii already, and a 360 if I get in on the Amazon deal. Otherwise I'll eventually get a 360, but my buying price is $200-250 for the premium (maybe $300 if it includes other stuff), so it might not be by the end of 2007.

360 by the end of the month, and I definitely plan on getting a Wii sometime in 2007.
I still have to play Metal Gear Solid TWO, DMC 3, and about a million of the old Final Fantasys. So despite being a fan of those franchises, I'm in no rush to get a PS3. It's more of a "when I get around to it" kind of thing, unless some must-have multiplayer title really grabs my attention.

I'm not sure, but I think he altered the OP a little. By the end of '07 is a little more reasonable to own all 3 though. However, 2 of the 3 consoles will turn 1 year old, which is usually the time that the first AAA titles appear.

I currently own a 360 and I do plan on getting a Wii for Christmas or when the new Super Smash Brothers game comes out. I will eventually buy a PS3 but not until there is a price drop on it. I refuse to pay $600 for a console.

Have the 360, and don't plan on getting anything else for at least another year. Gonna upgrade the PC in mid to late 2007 in order to get a DX 10 graphics card and dual/quad core cpu.
With the $60 cost of 360 games, I just cant afford to get anything for a good long while. PC gaming is where its at anyhow.

Got Wii right now, got a 360 at lunched but sold it.. Still waiting for a 360 deal I cant pass up. Hopefully next year i'll have both.
jimbodan

I'll get them all eventually. I'll probably get a Wii first since it's relatively inexpensive unless I can get in on that 360 deal. If I don't get in on the Amazon deal then I'll get a 360 once there are a few more games I want (I don't like Sports and FPS games). I'll get a PS3 after it gets a significant price cut.

360 and Wii, though I'm not sure both (or either, really) will happen before 2007 ends.

I currently have a PS3 and plan to eventually own a Wii sometime next year after Smash Bros comes out. If I can get in on one of those $100 360's I'll be getting one, but thats the only way I'd bet getting one.

Just a Wii from now. When the first 360 pricebreak hits, I might pick one up. There's getting to be a backlog of titles I want to play, and hopefully some will come down in price by the time the hardware does.
I never plan to own a PS3.

As of right now I only own a 360, but I'll be getting a Wii in a couple of months. As for the PS3 I'll wait for a price drop or when they release a slimmer version. Like how Sony did with the PSOne and PSTwo.
