Yes it would be nice to see a price drop on the PS3. I didnt think the Wii would be so popular over the PS3!
Whens the Wii hitting shelves anyway?
I think it will be interesting to see the sales of the PS3 once its out..
it surprised me as well, Sony have lost some ground. Third party game retailers have set October for release, though the following counter suggests start of November.

They are saying the power of the Wii is only a little more than the original xbox... Im suprised they went that route!
The devkits cost hardly anything ($2,000 if i remember correctly) which should draw in some indy developers, ergo (i hope) some non-traditional gameplay.
