Would it be worth it?

If money is tight, getting new hardware isn't a good idea in my opinion. Buy more games for the systems you have. 300$ for a PS3 can get you at least 10 games if you look carefully.
Then, when you have a job later, buy yourself a PS4 or whatever is out at that time.
When I was 16 I only had 1 modern gaming machine (N64), because I couldn't afford both (PS1).
