I have only bought a Wii so far and I am happy with it as it gets the whole family playing. It has really re-kindled gaming for me.

I want a PS3 for HD, but when I see the videos of games or demos for both the PS3 and Xbox 360 they just look marginaly better than PS2. Is there something that is really "Next Gen" coming on the HD consoles or are they just slightly better than a PS2?

I am enjoying this generation.  Last gen, I got a gamecube and xbox and I was relatively dissapointed.  This gen I have a Wii.  Like you said it really gets a group of people gaming (including my wife).  Plus, I love Nintendo games and the virtual console.  I also have a PS3.  I like this better as my second console than the xbox I had last gen.    I enjoy the blu ray player and the other multimedia functions.  Additionally, I never had a PS1 or PS2, so I got the 80 gig and now am enjoying 3 generations of Sony.  I really enjoy some of their first part games that I've missed and also the sports games that don't get a fair shake on the Wii.  If you have an HDTV, a PS3 looks tons better than PS2 games.  Since I've purchased a decent chunk of PS2 games and they are supposed to be upconverted to 1080p.  But honestly some of them just look painful, while some PS3 games look beautiful.  Not saying you should definately get one, but at least try to demo it at gamespot or best buy before you say the graphics don't look better.
