We've all seen the discussions: "Oh, I don't want to get a 'x', it doesn't have that many games I like" or "I am buying a 'x' for 'y' and 'z'".
My question to you:
How many games does it usually take to make a console 'worth it' for you?
Do you just look for a few triple A releases and then buy it? Do you need a dozen or more releases before you buy?
I personally don't own more than 12 games for any console I have ever bought. Usually if there are only 4 games I really want to play that is enough to justify buying a console. (Or if my PS2 breaks I buy a PS3 to play FFT on..... and don't actually buy a PS3 game for 4 months)
