Ps3+Psp would be great, if you really cant afford them both buy only the Ps3 then...

It depends. Wii seems only fun at parties with family and friends while the PS3 you can enjoy at anytime.

Just my opinion, but I think you'll get a much better bang for your buck with the Wii+PSP.

Games like Zack and Wiki or SMG are plenty fun playing by yourself.

I am just saying the only time the Wii really shines is at parties.

Wii and PSP. I know I do! :P

Don't listen to the posters above, they're either fanboys or Naruto fans... Both have no credibility! :P

Here is a link on how to get a whole bunch off of PS3. With this way you could probably get both PSP & PS3 :)

I hope it helps. Scroll thru the forum to find the coupon link.

I have all 3 Wii, PS3, PSP. I use PS3 by far and away the most.

Well, the Wii and DS do have some connectivity options. It's mainly to use as an optional controller in certain (very limited number) of games, though Nintendo will also soon provide DS demos through the Wii.

It's only a gimmick when used as such (which admittedly is how a lot of games use it). Take a look at a game like Zack and Wiki however, and you start to see there's a lot of real potential there.

Only if you play games where the controls were tacked on. Play some of the quality titles and you'll never get bored with it.

You already have a DS though... DS + Wii + PSP is much better.

I'd get a PSP and Wii. To me, getting two systems seems like a better deal.

Here's some games you can start with.

Super Mario Galaxy

Madden 08 (feel free to cross it out if you don't like american football, but it's the best full sports game)

Medal of Honour: Heroes2

Zack and Wiki

Metroid Prime 3
