True the Wii is cheap, but you get what you pay for. No HD support (video or sound) no dvd playback (reg or HD) and an awkward / frustrating control style whose novelty will soon wear off leaving you with a last gen console you were duped into paying 150 for and that will sit around collecting dust. Not to mention the same old boring rehashed Nintendo exclusives (mario, zelda, metroid...etc).
Consider all the facts (not just the price like most people) when making your decision. If $600 is just too much for a game console in your opinion (like it is for me) maybe you should look into a 360.
The Wii is a piece of crap like someone else mentioned, but it is a piece of crap with a relatively low price tag compared to the other consoles. You can't really call the Wii competition to the other two because the PS3 and 360 are in a class above the Wii and are true next gen consoles. (it takes more than a new control interface to impress gamers who actually know what it is they are buying.)
Comparing the Wii to the 360 or PS3 would be like comparing a Ford Focus (with a sunroof) to a Dodge Viper and saying the Ford Focus is better because it is cheaper and because the Viper doesn't have a sunroof. Ridiculous

For now, get a Wii. Price is the first thing you mention, and Wii beats the PS3 on that score hands down.
As far as quality, Nintendo has always had excellent first-party games - Mario, Zelda, etc. and the same is true on the Wii - Wii Sports, Zelda Twilight Princess, Wario are all excellent games. And the Wii is selling like mad, so third-party publishers are making more and more games for it. The variety of Wii games will be huge this year.
The PS3 has awesome power on paper, but so far no one has exploited it. Maybe in a year or two, after the PS3 has built up some better games, and hopefully lowered its price, it would be worth a look.
Go with the Wii.

I have a Wii and an Xbox 360, so my opinion's a little biased, but I really like the Wii. Though the game selection may not be that great right now, it has a stellar line up for 2007. It also costs a lot less than the PS3,though the Ps3 has better graphics and more power. But I suggest buying the Wii and saving a little bit of money.
