Christmas is coming up rapidly. My wife suggested we get a video game system for our five-and-a-half year old daughter. My first thought was "Xbox 360 Kinect" because it actually forces you to do some exercise. Price for the hardware bundle and a few games is quite high and there isn't much selection of Kinect-specific titles.

My second thought was "ehh, slum it with a Wii" but that's still a non-trivial amount of money and the hardware is completely obsolete.

My third thought was to wait for my daughter's sixth birthday in May, at which point there may be more options, or at the least more Kinect titles.

Thoughts?
