I've successfully daisy chained three different switches off a WRT54GS to allow sufficient connections for computers and stuff during a LAN party. Your proposed setup will work just fine. After all the wired LAN network at 100mbps will remain faster than your internet speed. It won't be the single LAN cable between router and swtich that is any bottleneck, but your internet, even if both PS3 and Xbox were used together.

For gaming I'd always prefer a wired rather than wireless connection.
