Wii or PSP...?

I've got enough spare cash for the Wii but now i'm starting to look at the PSP.
I play PC games so dont really need to have a console too, so the PSP would be good but I just cant help wanting a Wii (+ my girlfriend would prefer the Wii cos its multiplayer).

Which should I get?
I cant find the Wii in stock anywhere which is the thing making me sway towards the psp. But I know I will want both eventually... :confused:

I know full well if I get the PSP i'll wish i'd bought the wii :rolleyes:

Two different machines but try out the wii first. Again put into consideration what games you want.

Shouldn't you be comparing the PSP and the DS?

I've got a Wii and my girlfriend has a DS. I honestly play the DS more than the Wii, cos it's so handy and the games are so fun.

Heh, just to buck the trend... we've got a DS and a Wii in our household. Our son mostly plays on the DS with his mates, whereas the Wii is something we'll all get involved in - including the missus who is the most non-gamer you could ever hope to meet.

The games currently available for the Wii might swing it for you, so have a look at what's out and what style you prefer. Also, think about whether you prefer the solitary gaming style that playing a handheld offers (not just the DS, they're all the same) or if you're more interested in the social aspect that gaming with the Wii offers.
