A friend of mine bought the new 360 slim and I know that I am notorious for hating on the xbox brand, but that system looks really nice. I prefer to stay with Nintendo and Sony, but if I could afford it, I would buy it just play Gears of War, Fable and Reach.
I really like the aesthics of the 360 slim and hope Nintendo incorparates something similar with the wii 2. I mean I like the button layout and functionality and pretty much everything about the system.
Yhe biggest question that I have is will Nintendo allow an internal hard drive to be used with the wii 2? I like the little compartment for the 360 slim and wish to see it for the wii2. Of course, Nintendo might allow the option, but require that the consumer buy the hard drive from other sources and plug it into the wii 2 console.
