Just wondering about the stats

I own just a 360.

EDIT: If you own an old console and a new one/s just tick the option for the new one/s that you own.
 
I have a 360. I used to have a PS1 and PS2 but I made the switch this gen.

A poll where you could pick multiple answers and just have the 3 choice and none would have been better, imho.

No, that would get the number of people messed up. That type of poll would show what I already know which is sales figures. This shows how many poeple own more than one so we can weed out all teh rich folk! :D
 
As a family, all three in the order they came out, but since I've had the PS3, I haven't touched the 360 once. PS3 + Wii is the best combo for me.
 
All three ( plus both handhelds) :)

I will never own a single console as long as there are exclusives I want.... oh and I have a job to pay for them :)
 
Well, technically I only own a PS3. The Wii is the family console in the living room, the 360 is my bros and the PS3 was a gift.

But I picked Wii because it's the only console I play these days.

No handhelds in the poll?
 
Just the Wii. While I would like to have all three, I don't have the time to play them and can't justify the cost, so I just bought my favorite.

One disappointing thing I've noticed, though, is that almost all of my favorite games are from Nintendo (Mario Galaxy, Mario Strikers Charged, Metroid Prime 3, Excite Truck, Wii Sports). I'm still waiting for the mass onslaught of 3rd party games. Though I have to say, I really enjoy/ed Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz, and I'm really looking forward to BWii, Medal of Honor 2 (except it doesn't have multiplayer in the same house!!!! WTF!), and Guitar Hero 3. I promised people I wouldn't buy them so they had more Xmas options. Sigh . . . .

Did you buy all those consoles new?
 
Wii!

We're talking about the current generation, of course. I have tons if we count the classics.

I'm debating which of the other two I'll get next year. The XBox 360 has more games I'm interested in CURRENTLY, but not by that much. PS3's hardware seems so much better and it's actually cheaper since I have to have WiFi (XBox 360 + 1 year of Live + WiFi = $500). And I've historically preferred Sony's exclusives to Microsoft's. I don't play console FPS.
 
The only next gen I own is a Wii. I saw it in the store and picked it up and never looked back. I have Re:4, Wii Play, and Madden.

The other consoles:
Genesis
Gamyboy
Gameboy Color
(2) Playstation(s)
PS2
Gamecube
DS

..and maybe a used PSP soon.
 
^ You seem to have answered your own debate ;)

I've historically preferred Sony's exclusives; but they haven't released any of the ones I like yet :) I see no Kingdom Hearts, Shadow of the Colossus, Ape Escape, etc style games...Gran Turismo and Ratchet and Clank and Warhawk look good though.

I'm leaning towards a PS3 but if I bought one today I'd run out of games to play on it pretty quick just because I'm picky. I dunno. I think I'll end up with a PS3 if Sony continues to picks up the slack like they have been recently :) But if I bought today I'd find more games of interest on the 360.
