It was bound to happen eventually!  Even though a lot of people will vote Nintendo obviously because of Mario and their sweet new innovations, I want to see how it does against the other 2 systems.  I wanted to make this poll at Next-Gen Stinks but I guess you can't make polls wherever you want.  I put them in alhabetical order just to be fair and you can even vote for 2 systems if you're that kind of crazy gamer :).  Let the voting begin!

Of course I voted for Rev, but the 360 is eye-catching, and I love Halo and Halo 2.

I voted for the Rev and the 360. My cousin has an X-Box ad it's great, so I'd like to have one of my own.

All of them. I have cash to burn, lots of it.

I still find it weird that most of you out there are fanboys.

Mods and Admins will give titles to people, if they want to, like Yoshi55, he got the title "A bump in the night", because he started bumping topics at night, Paper Mario, got the title because he can't quote right.

I'll probably get a Revolution and maybe a PS3. That is once the price goes down and once they can actually perfect their Blu Ray technology.
As a game that requires six friends, an HDTV, and skill, I can see why the majority of TMK is going to hate on it hard.

Most of the spare cash I have is going straight to games, sorry.

Wouldn't do no good with three consoles and no games to go with it, eh?

I would play internet poker to make the money I need to buy these systems, although I've not been running very well at all recently. I might have to change my title to "-EV" if this keeps up. :(

Anyways, I highly doubt I'll get any next-gen consoles. No time to play them. Honestly. I'd get a Revolution if any of them, though.

Uhh... Then "Solid" and "4".

But Revolution looks pretty sweet, too. And, it's the cheapest. :D

Yeah, I have to agree.  I don't want to sound like a fanboy but the big idea they have here is, IMO, better than the biggest and best graphics and hard drive, etc, that you could ever get.

I'm getting the PS3, but I'm not going to diss on the Revolution, because I might also buy that once the price is lowered. Besides, I hate those fan boys who are always putting down the other systems. It's extremely disturbing how much video games control some of our lives...now please excuse me, I have to go play Battlefront II for several hours.

I agree with zeppelin, I work at Gamestop, and the PS3 just takes the cake for me. . .mostly because it's release date will be after the 360 and the developers will have time to look at the xbox 360 and improve on it. I do have to confess, I am a "sony-guy" but I love mario and nintendo almost as much.

Hm. I think that I wouldn't say the ps3 will be the only one, It will be the first. Then the 360. . .due to my lack of knowledge of the rev.

GCN means GameCube Nintendo, theoretically.
Oddly, it's abbreviated "NGC" in Japan.
That was a joke.

Hidden message: xbox. Xbox kills you. And... it has a stupid name. "XBOX 360." What's the third one going to be? XBOX 361?
Maybe the REV's gonna get an advantage for being released last.

Whe I heard of the Xbox 360, at first I thought, "That's dumb, 360 degrees make a circle, yet this console is a box!"  Then I realized, "Oh, I guess if all the angles are 90 degrees, then it adds up to 360."  I already said that, huh?  I don't think I will be getting any new consoles any time soon, since I wouldn't dare ask my parents for money(my older siblings already take care of doing that), and I don't have a job or allowance or anything.  So I guess I'll have to rely on my N64, GCN, and GBA.  So what if it's not new, it's still diggidy-dang* awesome!

Winning money with online poker?  My brother's friend used his older brother's account to play, and made enough money to buy a car and stuff.  He's really good, I guess.  I don't know anything about poker, except it's usually hard and if you think you'll win, then the gang leader wins and you have to hand over your priceless heirloom and steal it back later, and spend your life running from the mafia until someone assassinates the godfather and all that. Blegh, offtopic...

*diggidy-dang is not meant to be a bad word, just a goofy emphasis tool.

There was a topic about the Xbox on these forums long ago which had some funny replies. (I'm not linking to it out of dislike for the Xbox, but because of some of the replies, like MMM's.)

That doesn't mean anything. They're judging the Revolution on the GameCube's performance.

Does this look remotely real?

That's retarded. How can they even ask a question like that? They don't know enough about the Revolution (I don't know how much is known already about the PS3).

I know. The reason most diss the Rev is because Nintendo left them down with the GCN, according to the people I've asked. I have a GCN and I have no regrets, although I would like to get a 360 or a PSP, I have a GCN and I'm glad I have one.
