I think the PS3's were necessary and a 40GB model for under £300 for people like myself who have played the PS2 games to death was needed but the 360's seemed unnecessary until they finally managed to fix the RROD, only then should it be needed as they had all bases covered with their premium and core version.
The Wii will have another model by end of 09 I reckon with built in storage solution and some form of HD capability - maybe even improved motion controlls but until then they are happily plugging away building up the user base and playing it by ear.
Those people that think they're perfect give a bad reputation to us who are...
"With the DS, it's fair to say that Nintendo stepped out of the technical race and went for a feature differentiation with the touch screen, but I fear that it won't have a lasting impact beyond that of a gimmick - so the long-lasting appeal of the platform is at peril as a direct result of that." - Phil Harrison, Sony
