Which Three Should I Buy? Apple iPad, Apple iPhone 3GS, Nintendo DSi XL, PSP GO, PSP 3000, and Xbox 360 Elite?

Question

I am a current PS3 Slim and Nintendo Wii owner. I have never had any of these systems before which is the reason why i want to pick the best three as possible. So, i never had an iPad (because it came out today) Never had an iPhone, Never had a Nintendo DS, Never had any kind of PSP, And Never had any Xbox 360 before ever. So, if everybody who answers this question reads this, i would really appreciate it. Okay, lets start off with the Apple iPad. I want the Apple iPad because it is new and just came out today. Everybody wants an iPad if they do not have one, and it is the most poular thing out there right now, and it has a 10.3 Inch screen display. Now, i really think that the iPad might have some bugs in it since it just came out, but i think that Apple takes care of the viruses and bugs because they are one of the best companies out there. But, i really like the iPhone because this will be my first phone and my parents had approved on it which took a very long time to do. The iPhone has games, music, apps. and a lot more. So, if i buy the iPad and the iPhone i think that it would be very stupid of me to do that because the iPad is the same exact thing as the iPhone accept it has a larger screen. Plus, I already have a PC. Anyway, the Nintendo DSi XL is amazing with a 93% larger screens than the Nintendo DS Lite. But, what stinks is that a few days before the Nintendo DSi XL came out Nintendo announced that they will release the Nintendo 3DS sometime between Now and March 31st 2011. So, it could be released in a year. Plus, i heard that it will replace the whole Nintendo DS series, even the Nintendo DSi XL. My parents are convinced to let me buy the Nintendo DSi XL right now, and then buy teh Nintendo 3DS in a year because i am buying everything from my money. So, should i buy the Nintendo DSi XL and the Nintendo 3DS or just the Nintendo DSi XL because the Nintendo 3DS might not be amazing, or should i wait and buy the Nintendo 3DS? Now, to the PSP Series. I like the PSP 3000 because it has a large 4.3 Inch Screen. But, the problem is that Sony mught discontinue the PSP 3000 because it is getting very old and the lifespan is almost over. So, if any of you say that not all of the UMD Games are on the PlayStation Network for you to download for the PSP GO, well you would be wrong BECAUSE EVERY SINGLE GAME THAT I LIKE ON UMD IS AVAILABLE ON PLAYSTATION NETWORK, so that should not be a big problem, also pricing is not an issue at all. But, here comes the problem, my dad told me that since the Nintendo 3DS is coming out, Sony might come out with a newer version of the PSP to compete with the Nintendo 3DS, because when Nintendo released the Nintendo DSi, they released the PSP GO six months after, to compete. Also, yesterday tehre was some news that sony might come out with a new PSP because some guy said it by accident, and they might announce it at E3 2010. So, i have talked enough about the PSP so lets go to the Xbox 360 Eltie. I am a huge fan of the Halo Series, Fable Series, and a huge fan of Xbox Live. But, you know how the Xbox was released in 2005, and the Elite came out in 2007, well the Elite was the same thing as the Xbox 360 Pro, but they were black and had 120GB. So, litterly the Xbox 360 came out in 2005. But, since it is the oldest console in this generation, i am afraid that Xbox might come out with a new system maybe in 2011, or 2012. Also because they make a price drop every year and now they are $299.99 and if next year they are $199.99 then they are too cheap and the company would have to make a new system. But, do they have to make a price drop? Or can they just keep it at $299.99 and then when Project Natal make it $399.99, so will they keep it expensive or decrease the price and come out with a new Xbox. Because in 2004 i got a PlayStation 2 Slim and i thought that it was too old, but then people said that it wasn't then two years later the PS3 came out and i was sony dissapointed that i wasn't able to get the PS3 because i wasted my money on the PS2 and my parents didn't let me, but now i got the PS3 Slim on Black Friday so it was not a huge problem, but will Xbox come out with a new system because i do not want to miss out on the new one. And should i just be happy with what i have and not buy teh Xbox 360 Elite. Anyway, thank you for those who read this all. Ohhh, just remembered that if i buy teh iPad i will buy the 16GB Wi-Fi version which is $499.00. Who ever explains the most and gives the best detail i will give five stars and ten points, and if you write two sentences you are not going to get the best answer. So, thanks everybody and type a lot!!!

Well I have got a Nintendo DS and Xbox 360. I got the DS as soon as it came out and thought it was the best thing around at that time. Then I got a Wii, played it for about 3 months, then got bored of it. Now I know why people are selling the Wii's constantly. 
Around October last year, I bought an Xbox 360 and so far, it is when of the best things I have ever spent £200 on (I got the Elite + 2 new games). I thought this was a fantastic price for what it actually is. The black consle with a 120 GB hard drive, black headset and 1 black controller. I suggest getting the Elite instead of the Arcade because you will get more for your money.
Never really been interested in buying the PS3. The HD of the Xbox was too high up for me. Hope this helps.

Ipad is an over sized ipod touch.  I wouldn't waste money on it.  The iphone 3gs is a great phone, but has a very expensive plan & the 3G is also expensive.  If you want to keep shelling out money go for it.  The 3ds(if it does not get delayed) WILL have backward compatibility, meaning it will play DS games on it.  Therefore buying a dsi XL would not be worth it unless you want it NOW.  The PSP go has a smaller screen, and in my opinion, a much worse version of the PSP 3000.  The PSP 3000 is a good portable, but the movies on it are meh, the internet is slow, and most of the games are meh.  The DS has better ratings than the PSP.  The Xbox 360 does not plan on releasing a new console, and has great games.  There are a lot of xbox 360 exclusive games the PS3 does not offer (Gears of War, Halo, etc.)  The Xbox live is much better than the crappy PS3 network, and has more features.  A great console with few flaws.

I would get the Xbox 360

Alright lets get started *sigh* Okay definetely get an xbox 360. No need for it to be an elite no difference except for memory and color. I cant really tell you the pros and cons for the others but the new psps. I read a huge article about how the new psps are horrible and a complete waste of money. They are just trying to match sales with dss but cant compare. The ipad gets slammed everywhere and is the same thing as an iphone except being overexpensive. Now back to what I know for sure. The xbox 360 is the best out of the three next gen consoles. I own a ps3 and a wii. The wii gathers dust on my shelf unless i get drunk and want to play mario with a bunch of friends. The ps3 is basically just my blu ray player. The controller is horrible for shooting games. Xbox live is phenomenal with its exclusive arcade hits and communications. Xbox has alot of xbox only games like gears of war fable assassins creed 2 left 4 dead halo and many others. The pricing went down because of the economy to make it afordable. Xbox live alone racks them in millions of dollars each month so no worry there. I have had the same xbox for seven years and have never encountered any problems. There is a 2 years red ring of death warranty just in case. Do not buy the Final Fantasy Bundle. I bought Final Fantasy thinking it would be awesome but am hugely dissapointed about how redundant and boring it is. Press one button then it does what you pressed. You go back press the button and you do this for 5 minutes to kill a moth. Xbox 360 is the best thing ive ever purchased and I promise you you will not regret buying it. Make sure you have an internet connection for xbox live. If youre worried about movies for 75 dollars you can buy an attatchable hd movie player for the xbox. Get the XBOX 360!!! Hope I helped.

The iPad, Xbox 360 w. Live, and the iPhone. The iPad is a huge tablet and its the most famous thing out there right now and if you buy that it will not bore you because not only is it a game but it is also sort of a game system because you can get apps which are like mini games that you have on youre iPad and if they come out with a jailbreak which is a hack for the iPad which gives you all the free apps and is legal you can get all sorts of paid apps for free. The Xbox 360 in my opinion is the best gaming console out there right now because it has the best online gameplay sure the PS3 has free internet but the Xbox has better gameplay and you can do more things on the Xbox online, Xbox is also getting a browser. And the iPhone is just plain awesome because it will be like a mini iPad so you can call people and play games on it and there are some usefull apps like shazam which tells u the name of the song if u dont know the name and want to figure it out, iPhone also has 3G which means wherever you go you will get internet. Hope this helps!

Get the psp go, like the psp 3000 but newer
Get the iphone. Trust me, it'll come in handy
And x box 360

If you ask me, you already have alot of stuff. i think it's pointless getting another gaming system because you already have one. i think the only thing on that list you truly need is the iphone. and even then, you might not need the phone part. If you ask me, get the iphone and save the rest of your money for a day when something really great that you want comes out and then buy that
