First:Which one?
For Xbox 360:Well I wanna play Tales of vesperia,Lost Odysseus and Gears 2.I'm gonna ask it for christmas present,so maybe I get it maybe I don't.I don't care so much,just don't have anything else to ask.
So,what you miss if you buy Arcade,not Pro model?
How you pay for Xbox live if you don't have credit card and are under 18 years old?
How to avoid that frikkin Red ring of death?
For Wii:I wanna try it,and gonna get Super Smash Bros Brawl,Zelda,Super Mario Galaxy and Metroid prime 3.Again I'm gonna ask it for christmas present,so maybe I don't get it,maybe I will.

The Pro has a hard disk in the box, the Arcade doesn't. You can always buy it separately, tho. Without a hard disk you won't have room to store demos, you'll have limited room for games distributed through Live (like Geometry Wars, Braid, etc) and you won't be able to install games to the hard disk (which means the disc doesn't get worn, the disc drive will last longer, also no jet-like sound coming from your 360 while you play).
As for paying for live, stores sell cards with codes for both points (which you use to buy games, themes, etc) and the Gold subscription (which is what you need to play online).
The best you can do to avoid the RROD is buying a jasper and placing your 360 in a well ventilated place.
As for the Wii, I say it's worth just for Galaxy and Zelda and whatever else is a bonus... but I'm probably in the minority there.
