Okay, to make up for my earlier indiscretions, I've updated that big 'ol image:
Console Size Chart

Also, for LOLs, here is the old PS3 vs. the new one (old in silver):

There are no official Wii dimensions that I could find, but the guy in the blog above has done a pretty thorough study, extrapolating his estimates from patent drawings and photographs.  I double-checked his main argument and it's correct: the other estimates we've seen for dimensions don't leave enough space on the sides of the disc slot.

So interestingly, Xbox 360 got a little smaller (it's sideways height is 1.4 cm. smaller than originally planned), while PS3 got larger on every dimension.  Wii also got larger, but only because the original estimates were probably too low.

For LOLs, the volume of the three smallest systems:
Slim ps2 = 978.88 cubic cm
Wii = 1445.84 cubic cm (estimated)
GC = 2656.5 cubic cm.  
That's my opinion, not yours.

You know the funny factiod of this whole thing is?  If the consoles where people instead.  The Gamecube would be the obese looking one.

Edit:  Ah it lookes like the PS3 grew cooling vents.  So it probably would be the some size if they didn't need the space for airflow.  Thats an honest mistake.
