u seriosuly think the ps3 is overpriced?

The Wii is the most I have EVER paid for a gaming console @ $250. PS1 was $200, N64 was $100 or so, PS2 was $200, Gamecube was $150, Dreamcast was $125 w/3 games. I can't remember the SNES price and my NES was a gift. :p I guess my "bite-point" will either be a no-bc sub-$200 PS3 (with a better game library than it has now for the games *I* play), or a PS3 WITH good backwards compatibility for $250 with a bit better library than it has now. I currently have 8 PS3 games on my watch list (none of them are FPS games OR first party titles), and that still doesn't promise I will get them even if I do get a PS3 since they may not turn out to be good. I have a VERY small budget (I don't have a job, I take care of my family full-time), so the more money I spend on hardware, the less I spend on games. I was memorized by Nintendo's E3'06, and decided then-and-there to get a Wii at launch. Between E3'06 and the November launch I bought only 3 games that I decided were "MUST-GET" like Disgaea 2 for PS2. The last 2 games I bought were Mario Galaxy and Fire Emblem : Radiant Dawn (2nd fav SRPG ever!), while I had Soul Calibur Legends and One Piece : Unlimited Adventure on my list of games, their reviews pushed them down to bargain-bin pickups. Some favorable reviews of Opoona make me want the game, but my existing budget is going towards Mario Kart Wii next month, and I'm kinda strapped for extra cash right now. >.Please understand that I am NOT bashing the PS3 in any way for any other owners of the console. I am simply stating that my interest in it currently is very low, and is a *long* way away from being worth considering a purchase. Btw, my interest in Final Fantasy XIII games is VERY low, I was EXTREMELY disappointed in Final Fantasy XII, and XIII is looking like it's taking the same style of gameplay. And I have NEVER enjoyed the Metal Gear Solid series. But for a sneaker I would LOVE a new Thief game. :D

Nobody is crazy enough to accuse me of being sane.

jealous of what? i went to gamestop today, the ps3 had the smallest section out all the consoles, the psp section was bigger. i love my ps3, but frankly there's nothing to be jealous of yet.

 No, sorry, lol. It just really frustrates me when people spell it that way. I think most people think it's a typo or something.

 Look, accept it. The PS3 doesn't have as big as a library as other consoles. Does that mean it's inferior? Not neccisarly. The Gamecube and Xbox weren't bad consoles even though they had a smaller library than the PS2. It all comes down to an individual gamers taste. One console can have a small library yet one gamer might want more games out of that library than another console with a bigger library. Anyway, I understand you like the PS3 and all, but don't result to blind fanboyism.

 I'm a PS3 fan. I'm just saying your trying to make the PS3 collection out to be bigger than it actually is. It has a smaller library of games, I just thought you were having a hard time accepting that since you were doubting them going to gamestop.
