It's probably more accurate to say that the Wii more closely resembles the previous generations of consoles, than to say the Wii is a true console and the PS3 and 360 are not. The Wii has some of like features, such as Ethernet connectivity, ability to download games instead of just being able to play straight from the distribution media, etc., while the HD twins have some features that are closer to previous consoles that pcs, such as lack of ability to add customize the box, etc.
Also, the low end 360 is cheaper than the Wii, so price can't be a factor between this two anymore.
