Gaming console for 7 year old

I haven't played gaming consoles since the PS2 about 15 years ago. Likely to get one for my 7 year old boy. Looking at the Xbox 360 with kinnect. Is that a good choice?

Find out what his friends are playing.

The 360 and PS3 are now the old consoles. The newest ones are the Xbox One and PS4.
You can get a 360 for cheap nowadays, and there is a massive log of games available, just realize that they'll stop releasing games for that console in the near future.
Also, if you looking for something more kid/family friendly, get the WiiU.

I am in the same boat as you. My 7 year old girl wants a new console. We have a Wii. I think I will get the Xbox 1 with kinect. I thought about the Wii U but she wants to play Minecraft and Wii U doesn't have the minecraft game. In fact I went to target and got some xbox 1 games since they are buy 2 get 1 free.

While this isn't chronologically correct, it still made me feel pretty damn old.
Thanks.

The kinect on the 360 is garbage. Dont bother with it. The xbox one kinect does work better but the is not a lot of software for it. New Xbox One's are on sale for 350.00 at most retailers. Support by game developers for the 360 will likely last a couple more years but I doubt you will see much of a price drop before then.
