Wii- Motion+ and a lot more storage space
PS3- cheaper
360- No RROD

For all those saying that the PS3 should have been cheaper:

What would you remove from the PS3? Sony can't just eat even bigger loses than they actually had. Since more would sell at that lower price, Sony would lose even more.

The 360 would have better hardware, the PS3 would be half the price, and the Wii would have decent third-party games.



Could I trouble you for some maple syrup to go with the plate of roffles you just served up?

Sure, but this is just fantasizing here.  We could say the same about the 360--if it had better hardware, it would have pushed back the launch several months due to the extra R&D.

Wii - no change
360 - no RROD
PS3 - no wi-fi (give your consumers choice) and lower price.

IF 360 didn't have the stigma of the RROD and the PS3 launched at a reasonable entry price can you imagine what VGCHARTZ would look like then??

The 20GB lacked wi-fi, but that model was only in US and Japan

I did not know that...learned something today! 

I don't think the Wi-Fi would make a big cost adjustment, it just bothers me that I'd have to pay ANY amount for something I totally will never use (router behind my tv for Tivo, 360 and eventually a PS3 and Wii).

Wii - Come on at least 720p and/or a little more powerful

PS3 - Instead of saying price, I'll go with games. Resistance was the only good game for months. Should be at least 3 games or so at launch.

360 - No Red Rings!!! What is it like 24 million now? I'd bet its at least 30 million without RRoD.

Wii-3rd parties instantly love and support it
360-Be more Japan-friendly
Ps3- same features, lower launch price



 

Enjoy

Wii - a least 2 gig flash and support for USB mass storage

PS3 - have two models one without blu-ray one with and make all games support DVD Format so lets say $299 and $499 $200 for the blu-ray and a bigger hard drive

360 - More hardware testing and no core system instead a 20 gig and a 60 gig with wifi also have built in batteries in controllers
