I disagree. 2007 was Nintendo's year. They absolutely dominated everything - consoles and handhelds. 2008 will be Sony's year though. Microsoft has been crossing around the middle, nothing really exciting or great in my opinion. I just don't think the Wii will be able to last forever.

I also agree that it was Nintendos year with the wii being sold out till this day. But I gotta say PS3 with its high price tag and limited first party games did well in my opinion.

2008 is definetly the year to own or get a PS3. So many games I don't know how I'm going to have the time or money for them all.

I agree with the above ,07 was more the year of the Wii. "Played Galaxy last night. Was cool."

Game wise it was Micros year. But Micro had a year vs no one. And I feel Game wise 08 is a big year for Sony. But I still think 09 may be better "graphics wise" once the BS is thrown to the side. And they start to use the PS3.

Want to do a little move called "Input Lag" on the conspiracy theory behind that. Should be funny as sh^&!

well I don't see the Wii going much further next year, most peoples who wanted one already has one. Well not so true since Nintendo can't produce fast enough for the demand, but you have to think that the demand is higher during the holidays, parents already bought the gifts for their kid. I see another sellout for Nintendo next holiday season...

While peoples have to upgrade their X360 with each new and improve version, most peoples who wanted a X360, already has one as well. And imo, so far they doesn't have many quality games (but it's only my opinion).

So it's left up to Sony who'se doing better and better over time, the Ps3 got even a better start up then the Ps2! The Ps3 is a better system overall and as developpers gets to work with the specs, we'll see more games being released on the system, attracting more peoples... it's hard to believe Sony could go wrong...

I champion the idea that the Wii is not directly comparable to the PS3 and 360. The 360 captured the true gaming console market last year, and will continue its success into this year. However the PS3 has great games coming that will push them closer to being equal...Baby steps people, Sony has to catch up to Microsoft before they can pass them. This gen is far from over.

I agree with the Nintendo statement. I think You'll be able to get Wii sometime by spring/summer, but I can see them becomeing in in short supply again by november 08 unless there is a palethra of backstock. I still don't have a Wii yet and I want one, but the fact is that most people do have one. But then again, 120mil PS2 systems sold worldwide, and only 15mil Wii in the states so far. Hard to say - There probably still are people who want the wii.

Once Nintendo drops the tag to 199.99, they'll once again gain control. As for PS3, it will continue to successfully produce excellent exclusives throughout the new year, and third party support will ultimately continue to grow. I am personally aPlaystation supporter for the most part, but I will get a Wii at some point or another.
