Just from personal use, I'd go for the Wii too. I just prefer the games etc to the xbox. But my lad (who's 21 prefers the 360). Having said that the 360 broke after only 9 months and was a pain to get fixed
 .That's just my opinions though  .Regards, Ian.

Get the wii, xbox / 360 are obsolete and have an MTBF of 9 months. Wiis games are tamer than the 360s but the multiplayer is more friendly to groups clustered around a screen. Just make sure theres lots of room between them and the tv screen

Okay, I have experience with all the systems that are out. Wii, 360 and PS3. It is correct that the 360 does fail. If you do choose to go that route, get an 'elite' edition. They are far better than anything else unless you get a new Arcade version. Problem with the Arcade is that it does not come with a hard drive. But it is what is known as a Jasper and because of this and all new editions of the Elite in stores are Jaspers too, they are built better and do not have the Red Ring issue. The PS3 is great and better in the long run at the moment since it is free online play, BluRay movies and all the such. But since you are thinking of your kids and on a tight budget, I would have to suggest the Wii. There are a heap of games out there fun for single player and for group/family. It is also the cheapest one of the lot.

I got a used Premium that appears to have a hard drive issue (not recognised by Forza3) which makes Forza3 fairly useless as the 2nd, content disk has to install to the console for all the car modifying, save games etc.
It does have memory slots on the front so I'm hoping one of those little memory sticks will do.
