I have known people who have had the system for a few years now and the only games they bought for it were smash brothers(good game and I am a fan of the series but honestly I would not buy a console for it), and a few first party games. i can not believe some people would own a system for one game, and ignore everything else. They look at me like I am crazy when I tell them that I own atleast 30 games on the system.

Rant over, but does anyone else no someone wgho does not utilise their wii and completly squander their purchase.

Yeah I know people like that for all the consoles. Most gamers I know use their console as a Wii Sports/Mario Kart, COD/Halo, FIFA, Guitar Hero box. There's a reason those games sell 10s of millions and random stuff like Muramasa does a lot less.

I have over 70 Wii games. Including Wiiware and VC, but close to 45 on disc right now. I have bought and sold quite a few. But i only have 10 games for my PS3 and only like 4 on my PC. IMO, Wii has a more diverse library of games, some really good. The only real complaint about the Wii library is that no one sells the games. I have bought almost all my games off ebay/amazon just because Bestbuy and Walmart dont have a selection(which we all know). Not enough people do this, which i dont blame them...but they sit back and complain that Wii has no games. As much L4D or UC2 that i have played, I have more hours logged with my Wii this gen then both PC and PS3 combined.

I only own 6 wii games, all of them first party titles. I just enjoy gaming on my pc much more than the wii so i only use it for my mario/smash bros/ donkey kong fix.

I am pretty sure that over 50% of people that own a wii only have Wii sports. I dont really know anyone that has a big collection of wii games. the few people that I know that have a wii, just have 3 or 4 games, but they have played wii sports the most by far.

This is what I was coming to post, seen it with things like the SNES, PS2, all the systems, I always ask people why do they have it, if all they have are 4 games in 4yrs.

My grandmother kinda did actually. Though she has a few other games, she doesn't seem to enjoy them much. The purchase was kinda recent-ish though as well, so no it wasn't at the full launch price.

I have 38 Wii games (My latest been Xenoblade Chronicles, yay for Europe), and that's not including all my Wii Ware and Virtual Console games. Yet most, if not all of my friends who own a Wii barely break 5, most have just Wii Sports, SSBB, Mario Kart and Mario Strikers, with some having one of the Mario Galaxy games or Twilight Princess.

not really. my roommate has a gamecube soley for melee. he was going to buy a wii soley for brawl but i let him use my wii. these people do in fact exist. my sister has one soley for wii sports. so yes people do buy the wii just for one game and they arent even gamers.

I have a Wii and only have two games. I've had the wii for a few years, and bought it for Zelda. There really hasn't been any other must play games for me. I just got Xenoblade in the mail, so thats my 2nd game, but I'm going out of my way to play it on my NTSC wii. I'll probably import The Last Story and Pandora's Tower (if it comes out in PAL) as well, just because my library is lacking. I might import Fatal Frame 4 as well, and maybe pick up Silent Hill. But other than that, I don't really even like my Wii. Most of the games on it are shovelware games and kids games. I do like SSB and Mario, but I just gave em a rent, as well as No More Heroes. I'm open to suggestions though, if anyone suggestions for killer apps on the Wii.

I have like 40 wii games, but at this point if I only had a select five I would probably be fine with it
