What would you do with $1000 dollar game shopping spree?

If you suddenly won a $1000s to spend on video games and related content what would you do? Right now I have fallen behind on buying consoles due to rl, and my newly rekindled spirit for MTG. Although I would love to buy a PS3 with it, I think I would get a Wii. Mainly because for about $500 I could get the console, extra wireless kamas and controllers, and other add-ons for the console itself. Then I could spend the final $500 buying games, and possible add-ons for those games as well. What about you? What would you do?

I'd probably get a PS3 and upgrade my DS to a DS lite. Unless, they unveil a new DS at E3 this year. Is PS3 more durable than Xbox 360? Since I already have a Wii, I'd buy more Wii points and buy even more more games for it. (Super Mario Galaxy, Mario Kart Wii, Okami, Nights, Resident Evil: Umbrella Chronicles, to name a few.) I'd also buy some DS games since there's so many I haven't gotten to play. (Mario Hoops, Mario Party DS, Donkey Kong: Jungle Climber, My French Coach..and a lot more.) I think this would amount to more than a $1,000 though. Can it be a $15,000 shopping spree?!

lol 15k would be great :) That is pretty much build your own game room. You can get high def TV and a full setup with about 20 games or so per unit.

I would buy up all the episodes I don't have of my favourite TV series. Like Stargate Atlantis, Battlestar Galactica, Boston Legal. That would save me slowly collecting them from eBay.

I would spend on ps3. I'll buy the newest tekken and street fighter 4 games. Those are my favorite game. I'd also spend on ps3 accessories. I'll buy other cool games, such as racing, boxing, etc.

i would go for the 360 if your talking accessories because the range that is offered is limitless, you can have anything from an extra hard drive to keyboard to talk to people on MSN through your 360
