I'm not buying any for several months. Xboxes can basically kiss my ass, particularly if most people buy the no-HDD version. PS3s sound like a typical Sony clusterfuck, and I don't trust Nintendo to release dick or squat for six months plus.

All three.
Already got my name down for a 360, already looking forward to DOA4 (with a cameo character from Halo), Too Human, Mass Effect, Ninety Nine Nights...

I'm getting the 360. Microsofts earned my dollars. ^.^

Well, it looks like I'll have come people to play with.

Never realized that there are so many nintendo fans on this board. I guess that means SDN gets +1 to vanity.
PS3 for me. It will get all the third party games and a good selection of first party ones. It's also not a undercut ripoff (xbox 360) nor a niche product (NRev).

I'll be getting a PS3 for sure because I have a butt-load of PS2 games and my PS2 recently took a shit. So, I'm gonna need a PS3 to play all those games. I may decide to buy another console later on.

PS3 because I love my PS2 games. And I'm an unabashed GTA fanwhore, and if they stay true to form GTA4 will come out first on PS3.
Hell, I'll even buy a PSP to get Liberty City Stories.

I'll have a Revolution, please. Sony can have my money if the number-of-titles-that-I'm-interested-in to price ratio for the PS3 becomes favourable, and Microsoft can have my money when they pry it from my cold dead hands (nevar!!11!1).
But first I'll be getting me a DS. It's part of the next generation too, you know.

Revolution for sure, after a year if the 360 has any games on it worth getting other then Halo 3. I'll pick one up too.

Revolution.
Just being able to play my current Gamecube games and get my favourite N64 games gets it my $$.
Super Smash Brothers and Mario Tennis are easily the most fun multiplayer games I've ever played.

I certainly will enjoy being able to play the old 8 and 16 bit Nintendo games again, without the annoying hassles of cleaning cartridge contacts.
And I'll be able to play new games too. It's a win-win situation.

Seriously. Being able to play all of my old games ALONE, even with a nominal fee, is easily worth the price of the system.

That really is an incredible deal.

I'll pick up a system when there's a game for it that I simply must have but can't get anywhere else. I bought a Playstation just to play Final Fantasy Tactics, and never bought another game after it. More recently I got an X-Box just to play Forza Motorsport. Both the PS and the XBox were on the verge of being replaced by a new generation when I got them. The last console I picked up at or near launch was the SNES ($199.99 for the system, two controllers, and Super Mario World, fancy that).

I'll certainly get a Revolution, as Nintendo make rather good games. Plus, they're at least trying to do something different.
Then, maybe I'll pick up a soon-to-be cut price PS2, Wanda & the Colossus and a few Nippon Ichi games. yess.

PC, as my game-playing habits can be described thusly:
"Solitaire a few times a month. If I'm in the mood for it, Star Wars: Battlefront or Jedi Academy. If I'm feeling nostalgic, one of the true-3D ports of DOOM. Otherwise, looking at pr0n. Can't do that on a console, now can you!"

I'll likely be getting all three, but not at launch. The XB360 and PS3 will probably have to wait until there's some games I'm interested in before I plop down $350+.
I'll almost certainly get the Revolution at launch, though, rather than waiting for Zelda or Metroid to come out like last time (assuming they aren't launch titles).

I need to vote twice. Because who am I kidding, I'll be buying both the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.

i'll probably go for a 360 (PC games but uniformized, no need for an upgrade every year) and a Revolution (Nintendo games, duh!).

I might buy a 360 out of sheer geekism. That thing is powerful. And it'll be out months before anything else could catch up.
