2+ Nintendo Wii
2+ Microsoft Xbox 360
2+ Sony Playstation 3

What would be the best networking solution (routers, switches, etc ) to have these gaming systems all use the same internet connection?

It if could be scalable to add more consoles would be a plus.

if you know exact make and model numbers of equipment to use, that would be helpful

i think people will need to know where these 6 systems will be located. The wii has built in 802.11g but requires an adapter for hard wiring while i believe the other 2 are the exact opposite meaning they have built in ethernet connection but wireless is not built in. Thus you might need additional parts Additionally if these units are going to be placed throughout the house, it would depend if u want to run cable or not.
