It depends both are great deals. If you have the games you want for those systems then it is easily a great deal to be worth it.
Well, you've got to take some things into consideration, obviously, and since they're similar in price now, fortunately that's not one of them.
First of all, and probably the most obvious one, are you normally a fan of Nintendo's games? If you're a fan of the core franchises, then the Wii's a good choice.
Do you see yourself playing locally with people more often than not? If so, then the Wii's also a good choice.
Are graphics important to you? If yes, go with the PS3; if not, then you should still look at the game selection for both consoles before making a decision (the graphics in most of the Wii's top games are still good, just not really in the same league as most of the PS3's library)
Do you have an HDTV? If you do, then a PS3 might be the better choice, since the Wii's more suited to lower resolutions. The fact that the PS3's also a Blu-Ray player doesn't hurt, either...
If you're more of a fan of playing online, then the PS3's probably a better choice.
So anyway, to sum it up, get a Wii if you're a fan of Ninendo's games and local multiplayer games. Get a PS3 if graphics and online mutliplayer are important to you, and also probably if you have an HDTV
Keep in mind, if you don't like the games a console has, then it's worthless to you no matter which one it is, so be sure to research what's out there for both consoles before you make a decision.
Hope that helps.
lol, joke thread?djsifer01what is a joke is that some people think that the ps3 is a better deal than the wii. Mario galaxies destroys anything on the ps3 graphically
[QUOTE="Androvinus"]the wii. Much better games , free online thats much better,better graphics and it has sold more.hanslacher54
Wait, WHAT?
Look at his sig. He is being Sarcastic.[QUOTE="djsifer01"]lol, joke thread?Androvinuswhat is a joke is that some people think that the ps3 is a better deal than the wii. Mario galaxies destroys anything on the ps3 graphically
No not graphically what you mean is gameplay wise.
Oh and no sarcasm
PS3, it has better graphics, games, it plays blu-ray movies, and it's game aren't only for kids and mario fanboys.
Guess it really depends on your taste. I have both a PS3 and a Wii and IMO the Wii is leagues better than the PS3.... of course Im one of the few that actually tried to get the best out of my Wii.

How is the Wii "leagues better" than the PS3 in your opinion?
This is a mean topic.. Sure it's fun and games when it's the PS3 vs 360. But why anyone would pick a Wii over a PS3 at thier current prices makes no sense at all!xsubtownerx
No it does make sense. Maybe the Wiis stellar exclusives will make someone want to buy it? Some people have different taste than others. Use your head and you'll figure out that it makes absolute perfect sense.

I like the Wii and all, but PS3 is easily the better choice. Superior gaming experience, as well as Blu-ray. Again, I'm not dissing the Wii, because I do love it, but PS3 wins as far as value.enterawesomeYou're right. The Wii cost $160 to make a launch, it probably cost less than $100 now and you're spending $249.99 it. The Wii hardware is a rip off, it's the games that make it good imo.
Well i have both and I have to say PS3 wins hands down it is just more fun to play and the online component is much more superior the harddrive everything about wins the games are just more fun to play!

But to be honest, I would totally pay $300 just to play Super Mario Galaxy.
