Assuming that I had no current-gen system, I would look at what I already owned, and easily decide on the Wii. Personally, I like the VC service, the innovative controls, and the fact that I can still play my GC games on it. (If it weren't for the GB player, it would be disconnected from the TV.) Second would go to the Elite 360. Again, we've a few XBox games, and there's a lot of stuff on XBLA that interests us. Not to mention all the RPGs that have come out for it. (And the Atlus games are icing on the cake there...)
