To Wii or not to Wii

The Nintendo Wii. It has been bugging me since December… should I or should I not get one?
PS3 although quite impressive, it is simply overkill. I don’t have an HDTV nor do I intend to collect Blu-Ray videos but damn the graphics are amazing. I can’t justify the $500 price tag though.
The Wii, however, is such a novelty. Instead of being a kickass gamer machine, it is more of an all-around entertainment appliance! It gets you more physically involved in the games which is good for home parties. Bad side, the games are quite on the lame side. At least the games that came out so far.
Thus I seriously considered the PS2… it had the games and it was half the price of the Wii. Pirated games galore and it can be "modified". The games are also half the price and readily available. But still… it wasn’t new or a novell idea and it’s going obsolete in a year or two.
Logic alone… i’d go with PS2. But my gut says go for a Wii!
