Well, first I have to buy one so that said I'm already at $250 :cry:. Then ofcourse I'll need a game, I'll probably get Pokemon Battle Revoloution because I'm a hardcore Pokemon Pearl player and I enjoy battling. I don't care what reviews say :P! Then my plans are to buy only two games for the rest of the year for the Wii which will be MP3and SSBB. Grand total is...

Roughly $375 including tax just for the Wii and Wii games. As for games I'll buy for my PS3 and 360 for the rest of the year included with my Wii purchases, we're talking like a little over $1000!!! :cry: That's almost all my money from my summer job! But it's ok, it will be well worth the cost because the games I'm getting are going to be incredible. :D

I already have one...and...I'll end up getting rid of about $400 dollars. Now, as a financially troubled person, this may seem difficult for me. But I made a wise decision and started a gaming fund, to where I put about $25 a week into. I've been doing this for a while, and I have $750+ so...I feel good about that. Then I'll have extra money left over for...component cables...maybe even a small LCD TV I use solely for gaming.

Good news! I just found out that my first paycheck will gimmie roughly $800! And with my next paycheck I'll have that $1000 I need :). I'm very happy. Financially things have been going great for me. I used to depend on my parents so much but now that I have a job I am finally free to buy any game when I want and as many games as I can afford. I am very proud of myself! :D

I need to buy a few last gen games first, so they don't get poulled from the shelves.

after that, just about every game i want is on the wii. I can easily spend hundreds on games and the virtual console

Lets see now. Metriod Prime 3, SSBB, Mario Galaxy. Might buy about 4000 Wii pts to buy some games for my wife. SO maybe another $400 this yr, and am gonna get a 360 in September, for Halo 3 and Mass Effect, that sounds like a good reason to get one, and that new Star Wars Game coming next yr, alongwith a ton of other RPGs including Fable 2, So maybe, $1000 more for that too

Heck, I'll probably drop about $600-750 on Wii games alone. For the fall season I'll probably drop about $1500-$2K in games. Lots of games I want. I guess I should start saving.

I will be dropping the wii this year if games don't start to get better for it. sure there are a few great games Zelda,papermario butthe wii is geting mostlywatered downports from other systems. Where is the online play. Will the wii be able to handle some of the complex games.I knew when I got the wii it wasen't going to be graphic powerhouse,but most of the games out don't look any better then the gamecube and some look worse most get even lower ratings. The virtual console games have been great and the main reason I still like the wii.I am excited about the new mario and a few titles. I just hope we start getting some quality titles.

Lets see....

Mario Strikers Charged, Bwii, MP3, Smash Bros, Super Mario Galaxy - lets say they're all $100 AUD each, thats $500 on games, and I bought an XCM V-Box, which was $90AUD including shipping, I might spend $100 on VC games this year, and also this year I bought SSX Blur, so thats another $100.

$790 AUD this year approx, unless other good games come out.

I've already spent $170 on games and Wii Points Cards. Right now, right off the top of my head, I plan to buy a few more Wiimotes, atachments for the Wiimotes, buy Mario, Metroid, Rayman 2, Paper Mario, and others if some good games comes out. So right now I plan to tack on maybe around $350 plus the $170 I already spent.

I already spent $250 to get the Wii, $50 to get zelda, and then I spent $20 to download two n64 games and I am going to get warioware, ssbb, re, and probably a lot of other games on it before 2008. So I am guessing I will spend as much on it as I spent on my 360 in the first 6 months which was roughly $5,000.
