Wii or PSP for my birthday?

    My birthday is in January and my girlfriend wants to buy me a wii or a psp, but I don't know what to choose. I already have a 360, so the wii would be only for the fun nintendo games and the psp for mobility.
    Can you give me any advice based on your experience?

    If I had to choose between the two I'd go with the wii because psps are getting old.

    I had a Wii and got bored of it within a few weeks of owning it. Its ok at first, pretty addictive, but after a while it gets boring especially after playing all the games you have for it loads. I haven't owned a PSP but i've heard there pretty decent, connect to the internet and there's some good games that you can play on it.

    i had the same issue as glen, got bored of it within a week fund the games quite boring after not much time.

    I'd go with psp just for the sake of being able to play on the go.

    wii is kind of like a party machine. It is fun if you have people to play with you. Not that great for gaming IMO. and PSP you can bring it everywhere, so i will choose a PSP

    You can put them on reserve at Game Stop and you'll have it in 1 month max.

    Thanks for your answers. I'm leaning towards the psp, but keep them coming.
    I'll probably find an excuse to buy them both anyway :) Winter is boring...

    Go with the PSP. Portable gaming, video player and you can connect to the internet via WiFi.

    psp sucks balls, the wii is fun if you have others to play it with.

    Already have one, but I still like my new desktop with the 22" screen :)

    I think I'll go for the psp for now. Do you have to hack it or anything so you can watch divx movies and do other stuff with it?

    PSP is for gamers who aren't physically active and Wii is for people who are adrenaline freaks!

    Imagine playing a boxing game at Wii? Tiring!

    Wii is real cool .. but to dam hard to find.. so far ONLY ebay and you have to watch the scammer there as well. I bought on for a low price and he send me an email saying no more at that price and then repost the same thread... Way to go ebay great Quality control.. lol
