But I think I may be the only one that is losing hope in the Wii....
I mean sure we have new motion sensing controller.. but how long will it last
It was fun at first but  im getting bored...

But then again there is online play coming soon for the Wii, but im worried it wont execed the DS's online..
But all this may just be me being pissed off because I can afford games on a monthly bases

Maybe you should wait for Smash Brothers, Metroid Prime, and Mario Galaxy before losing hope.

I understand you. My son would like to have a new game each 2 weeks (at least), but I opt to play the more cheaper GC titles I miss last gen, and some downlads from VC. This is how I hold and it works for me, but not everyone may be content with that options.

Just try to think in something else until you can afford a new game ;-) or rent them ;-)

Really, man, we're not in the mood to here whining. While we're off playing our Wiis with no end in sight, you're sitting there saying you're bored, and I bet you've only bought 2 games for your Wii. Last time I checked, there were more than 2 games for the Wii. A LOT more.

I don't blame you for how you feel. However, everyone knows it's the dry season, and while the 360 and even the PS2 are getting a few great games here and there, on the whole, everyone's hurting. 

I felt the same way about the Nintendo DS, and it over a year for software to come out that I was interested in. Now the DS is my favorite system, if you judge by playtime alone.

I've been playing GC games I never picked up, like Viewtiful Joe and Paper Mario.  In that sense, it gives my Wii something to do until actual Wii software worth purchasing is produced.

Yeah, my Wii is collecting dust. I think my 360 would too if I wasnt buying the games I missed last year: PGR3, Kameo, Dead Rising, and Table Tennis. It`ll be like that next drought with the Wii, buy games that I missed this year that werent good enough to spend full price at the time.

Wii is 5 months old, you expect all the great games to come out at once? The DS was pretty much like this when it first came out.

I understand if you dont have much fun with your Wii right now, but saying it has not much hope in the future ? I can give you a list of about 20 good games coming soon and that's excluding VC and the 45 games that Nintendo just recently .

well its hard to hit a "movin_target" with a fireball, so dont worry about it.

and a console is 1/3 itself and 2/3 the games for it, devs are cashing in on the controls, making s***y ports and not putting in any effort... look at the games, now look at the wii.

i want to really buy the wii but at the moment i hate the wii for precise reasons: 1) Nintendo needs to seriously sort out its supply chain issues, so we can get a hold of one without having to buy some expensive bundle that comes with games we don't want. 2) Nintendo has very few GOOD games available for the wii atm... 3)....which leads me onto my 3rd reason, nintendo needs to show Europe some respect and release their game over here around the same time in the EU as US, i mean come on elebits is only just available now over here and trauma centre isn't even out yet...granted these games don't interest me but it is nice to have the option, also paper mario isnt gonna be out over here until at least july. Out of the 2 games i want for the wii; zelda and paper mario only 1 is available and £200 is alot to drop for one game!! 4) NO online at the moment 5) The offer of opera browser and other channels for free is a good idea but because they are going to charge us for them after a while it is punishing us who don't buy a wii as soon its released. I mean most companies do the opposite and charge for them at first and then offer them for free.... Anyways thats my opinion, but i would like to make it clear that issue 1 will eventually become better and 4 and 2 should be along soon but i think 3 and 5 will be a continuous issue.....anyway if you have read this far thanks for reading :)

You only own 3 Wii games so I guess you would be bored, ignore the reviews and try some different games like excite truck Blur or Godfather or listen to the reviews and try Wario.  If that fails the virtual library is also full of shiney gems or there is the option of GC games. 

There are still a lot of new games to come on the Wii so writing it off is not the thing to do, but if you don't feel that the 3rd party games about are appropriately priced to tide you over (and I agree, but I check bargain sites daily :D) Im afraid early adoption was not for you, like many of the people who complain on this board :?

We should start a union called "Ignore the impatient wii owner threads" and maybe, just maybe they'd stop.

No, we have a right to complain about Nintendo's lackluster games. Sure, they promise us great games at the end of the year, but we bought this product so we deserve to have what we want. Yes, it's good that they are "perfecting" their games, but we have no guarantee these games will be great. I hope they will be, but do we have a guarantee? No. So this "wait until the end of the year" on the product we bought months ago philosophy is pretty stupid. Don't say we're impatient - we deserve quality software. Nothing released so far, with the exception of Zelda of course, has convinced me the Wii was a good choice.

Dude, are you even talking about Nintendo ? They make awesome first party titles, I thought it was common knowledge among gamers ? :|

Give it some time, the Wii hasn't even been out for a year yet. I know its boring and there is nothing to play, but we are entering the summer season and everyone who knows anything about this industry knows that nothing ever comes out in the summer. There is always a drought before the storm that arrives every christmas.

theres nothing 2 play...?

there is: zelda, sonic, red steel, marvel ultimate alliance (multiplayer), wii sports (still playing bowling/golf), ssx blur, NFL 07, call of duty 3 (not great but fun for a while). wario ware, the godfather (my favourite game at the moment.. 72hours played till now ) and more.

 i know, some of them had kinda bad ratings, but try them by urself before u decide to think they suck..

Even if u love the wii, u cannot be happy about the last gen releases its getting, and the titles that only release with other last gen systems such as ps2 and psp, that has to concern u, and its not gonna stop any time soon.

I'LL BUMP IT AS LONG AS I LIKE!

P.S. Never listen to reviews. Just now I only had 2 games on my wishlist for the wii, I thoroughly read the reviews rather than reading the point scores, and now I have a good 6-8 (including VC) now.

How many of these topics do we have to endure in a day? Every few minutes there's a new "I don't like my Wii anymore" or "Wii is teh suck!" thread. Are you just trying to get a rise out of people? I'm not looking to flame you here. If you no longer have interest in your Wii, I'm sorry. But give it some time. Developers had no idea that the Wii would be this popular. Only now are they beginning to get behind it.
I find it ironic that you mention the DS, which had a beginning similar to the Wii. It started out fast, then slowed down because developers didn't yet have games for it. Now the games are flowing, and the DS is a worldwide success. You can't blame developers for not wanting to jump on the Wii bandwagon right away. The Gamecube was a disappointment sales-wise, so it wouldn't make much sense investing in Nintendo's next platform without seeing tangible evidence of guaranteed success.
