As the thread subject suggests, I'm just wondering how you guys decide when and which consoles to purchase? For example, what's your reasoning for purchasing a console on launch day? The company's past performance? The console's potential? Current game selection? I don't own any of the next gen consoles yet. I'll hold off until one of the consoles has a large enough selection of games that suit my interest. A large enough selection of games is typical 4 or 5 must-haves. For myself, that is the only factor that matters when deciding to purchase a console. I go where the games are. What about you?
