Completely agree, the Wii complements the 360 and PS3 but it doesn't compete with them. This is what Nintendo intended all along, judging by the price they're selling them at. If anything, it really complements the 360, as you can get one of those and a Wii for less than the price of a PS3!

Also, if you're into playing online then you'll be disappointed in the Wii's online capabilities compared to XBox Live, as it's strengths lie in getting people up off the sofa and moving around... playing against people in the same room is different to playing against people online, especially playing against the non-traditional gamers. It'll be interesting to see how the online experience with the Wii does play out in the coming months.
