Pretty much, this.
I remember when I got an Xbox 360 and people were saying "Well, you're gonna have to buy a WiFi adapter but with the PS3 you get it for free. That's another $100 right there...." Why in the fuck do you just assume I had to buy a Wi Fi adapter?!? My consoles all sit three feet from my router! All of these hypothetical "You're gonna have to buy" assumptions tend to serve a specific purpose. Buy what you want because each case in optional.
Already have Wii Remotes? Great. Don't want an extra controller? Fine. Not a fan of indie games? Swell. Don't tell me what I'll have to buy. The entry cost of the hardware is all that matters. For all anyone knows, I rent my games from Gamefly.
