The ONLY next-gen console I want is the Wii. (And besides, I wouldn't pay for something from Microsoft anyway.) I can see the PS3 being fun once it comes down from its ridiculous price, but that'll be at least couple of years from now.
I miss the days where, once a console was released, that was it. There weren't any updates to the basic functionality of the unit that could potentially bork up a system.
If I wanted to deal with regular updates to a system, I'll use a computer for gaming. Update to game content... that's fine too.
Just leave the hardware alone; get it right, get it out the door and leave it alone. Damned Microsoft influence on the console gaming industry.
And I want to second the DS love here, too. I've got a Phat Electric Blue version and play the hell out of it. :) Great little system.

Looking forward to the Wii too!
