Funny, I have my 360 for 3 days now and I must say I don't really share your thoughts.
For one I wasn't blown away by the graphics (and yes I play on a HDTV). I liked them, and sure they are better than Wii's, but not enough to warrant the massive "Wii graphics suck" meme that's always around. I'm not that much of a graphics person I guess. I play a lot of DS and love my SNES games still.
Secondly I was playing Mass Effect. Truely awesome game, except for the frigging dual analog shooting. I absolutely hate the irresponsiveness. It really kinda ruins the experience after RE4Wii and Metroid 3.
I think Wii is worth $250. And masses of people think that. That's the only thing that matters. Whether Wii is better/worse than 360 or PS3 is up to anyone personally. I love the Wii for many reasons (Virtual Console is an important one) and I don't think my newly aqcuired 360 will change that (both have tremendous competition from the DS though).
I'll use my 360 for some of my favorite franchises, like RE5, Final Fantasy and Beyond Good and Evil, but Wii can give me lightgun shooters, point & click and snowboarding on a Balance Board. For me that alone makes the Wii a worthy purchase for every gamer, despite it being more expensive than 360.
