The nintendo Wii is the least expensive of the bunch. In some respects it is the most powerful of the 3 boxes. The Playstation 3 has a built in Blu-Ray DVD player which is for High Definition movies. The addition of this feature bumps the price on the box up. But if you were in the market for a High Def DVD player you could kill 2 birds with one box. While all three have similar games the Nintendo Wii is intended twords the younger gamer. There will be a larger selection of "Kid Friendly" Titles with the nintendo. They have the whole Mario family of games that don't involve as much blood and gore. The 360's stong point is the XBox Live which is the internet gaming aspect. If your daughter is into playing online vs. other players, then The 360 would be the way to go. Just know that online the language and comments of other users (16 year old boys) is usually vulgar and sometimes racially charged.

So to wrap up:

Nintedo Wii - best for younger gamers
Xbox 360 - best for internet gaming
PS3 - Built in HD DVD player

Pick which is important to you and buy accordingly.

Both PS3 and the 360 are great systems, no doubt. It really goes for who you're buying for though. Is your daughter a hard-core or soft-core gamer (in regards to time spent on the system)? Either way, you can't lose with the Wii. But for hard-core gaming (again, in regards to time spent playing) I'd stay away from the 360 and PS3. You simply don't get tired of Wii. You can do a LOT on it. Surf the web, get the news/wealther, make your own personal in-game player, and play with friends across the globe, all straight out of the box. On the flip side, it's incredibly user-friendly. 3-year-olds can learn to play the Wii. It's so simple. Can't beat Wii for just about anyone/any situation. It's really easy on the wallet too. PS3 and 360? Yes, they're great! But who are you buying for?

(The following paragraphs or summaries of each system please read first before my answer at the bottom)
Xbox premium 360- This game system is solid I mean good graphics its been out for a while and has fun games not overly expensive but not cheap either.

PlayStation 3- another solid blu ray High- Def gaming system that can store mp3s, photos, videos with internet, text chat, and voice chat and sixaxis controller (part motion sensing) and what not with good games but woa $500 or $600 consoles.... too expensive.

Nintendo Wii- I mean if your daughter loves to be active and is fairly young (10,11,12,13,14) with a motion sensing controller where you basically live the game it will be and enjoyable system for her. Neverthe less the graphic are not great and if your daughter is on the older side of the spectrum (19 20 21 22) this game system and games might not appeal to her (Ex:Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz).
It all depends on what the situation maybe but my answer but what youve told me:
Nintendo Wii

Each one has good qualities. The X-box 360 has better graphics and some good games, but I still feel that PS3 and Wii are better. Which of the two is best for your daughter, is based on what kind of games she is interested in. Wii has more Mario and Zelda types of games for younger kids (ages 8-13), while the PS3 has more teenager appropriate games. So it is really dependent on the age and interests of your daughter.

Chinese are making everything these days, and they are making everything cheap. Most brand names are made in China and then sold in the U.S. with a price tag which exceeds the cost 10-20 times! For example to assemble a computer in China costs $1. Since most parts are made there too, you can calculate what the cost would be. Anyways, don't be surprised by low prices. I bought my SonyEricsson phone directly from some guy and it was the original phone. However, be careful with the payment. Use a credit card, so you can cancel the transaction if you never get your console.

Depends on your daughters age, really. I think the Wii is the best because it is more advance than the other systems and you save alot more money. It also comes with a game, Wii Sports. There are baseball, bowling, boxing, tennis, and golf!

Wii is very cheap yet it is so far more advanced than the PS3 and X360. You'll be saving more than $500 if you buy a Wii rather than a PS3.
