Do you have proof Microsoft will drop the price of the 360 by the time Wii comes out? Furthermore, a 360 with an HD-DVD add-on is the same price as a PS3, regardless of SKU.

"Fun games" is entirely subjective.

2. The PS3's hardware has so much high end technology that companies hardly wanna make games for it due to it being to hard to write them for it, notice how only a few Japanese developers are sticking with it? Konami, Square, Capcom (possibly just for Devil May Cry 4)
Yep, it's hard to code games for the cell processor, but it's bold to say that "hardly" any companies want to make games for the system. "Hardly" any Japanese game developers want to make games for the 360. What's your point?

3. Quite possibly the biggest thing of all. A lack of interesting launch titles. Sure early on people were pissing themselves over Metal Gear Solid 4.. oh but WAIT! It's not a launch title? OMGWTF I WILL STILL BUY ONE LOLOLOLOL!!!!!!1111ONEELEVENsmurfRE! All the cool games that will at least be somewhat fun for the 3 won't be out till at least mid-late 2007.
What console in the last seven years has had AAA launch titles?
