If the Wii is discontinued within two years, do you think it was still worth it?

I bought the Wii late (after the price drop), so I've been doing some catch up with it. But I'm hearing things about WiiHD, Wii2, etc., and so I got this concern that maybe I waited too long, or should've waited longer for the next one?

Anyway, I have the system and I guess I can honestly say that it was still worth it, whether I got it too late or not.

I think, like the Gamecube and the original XBOX, the games may be fewer than the other consoles but for what it has, it's good enough. I feel the same with the Wii. Even if I just owned, for example, Metroid Prime Trilogy, Muramasa, A Boy and His Blob, Punch-Out, and Metroid Other M, Dragon Quest X, and the next Zelda when they come out, I'd say I'll be content with the Wii. Of course there are more games to mention, but these are just my favorites.

But what about everyone else? Are you satisfied or content with the Wii and the games it has? Or are you disappointed with it and wish there was more? And be honest, do you feel that maybe Nintendo let you down?

It was worth it to me with only it's launch titles

Everything else has been a bonus

It has given me Twilight Princess, Super Mario Galaxy, and Little King's Story. That alone is enough.

There's a ton of games for you that you should still get that are AA and AAA quality games, but everyone here seems to forget all of those and just sais "the wii has no games".

Absolutely. I've still got games I want to play on it and theres plenty of games I can continue to play with my family.

Regardless of when the Wii's lifecycle ends its performed precisely as I've wished it to.

definaltly worth it...

Going from a Nintendo64 to this console is QUITE A JUMP---

All i ahve to say is MARIOKART...The wii is plenty good for me and mine over here...

And when REFLEX comes out---that should be awesome...

Of course The NEw Super Mario Brothers is ging to outsell any game this year...

wii=unique and satisfying...

Dualanalog=boring

Very very very much so.

I've gotten plenty of mileage out of it thus far.

Whatever comes out two years from now won't begin with a huge library like the Wii has though, unless it's backwards compatible. So getting a Wii now was a good idea because of the Wii's current large library.

Definitely worth it :D

I would buy it only for SMG, SSBB, TP and MK.

For Mario, Zelda Metroid, and obscure games like De Blob, full backwards compatability with the Cube and virtual console it's been well worth it.

Yeah. :)

Some may disagree, but I say absolutely.

Very very very much so.

goblaa

It's definately worth it.

Yes I have 15 games for it I only had 15 games for the N64 so 15 is about the average of what I buy in one gen. I still have to buy some games at the end of this year. I also plan on buying tons next year so it is already worth it.

Definitely. One of my best purchases ever.

Hm.. depends on what comes out in the next 2 years. Though I would be disappointed either way that it had such short life for something so successful. Devil-Itachi

five years the same as every other Nintendo console. On topic I'm fine. I bought the wii when there were enough games out to satisfy me back in April 08 everything now is bonus

I'm very satisfied with it:D

Yeah, it was definitely worth it. It's gonna' be even more worth it by the end of next year, though; so many awesome games comin' out, I don't think I'll have enough money for all of them.:P

If it had support like the DS. I would definetely say yes. It still has time to improve though.

Nope

I wanted to experience racing, sports, and mini games using motion

That was a blast and I was satisfied, from that point on it was just a bonus

Then MLB Power Pros came out and I was like "How did I get so fortunate?"

I don't play it as much as my other systems, but I'm still glad I got the Wii. It's been worth it. Has some awesome and unique exclusives.

I'd have to let you know when we get there. Right now, I'm content with the Wii, but I had more fun with my GC. I'd be pretty bored if I didn't have a DS this gen.

Considering that the competition is coming out with their own versions of motion controls, yes it was well worth it. The Wii should be remembered as one of the best consoles of all time for making the gaming industry that much more interesting, and enougn to gain respect from the very same people who talked negatively about video games leading to child obesity and other negative influences.

Ever since Iwata spoke about "The Wii stalled", so many people have been posting these kinds of topics lately. His discussion simply means that Nintendo is currently taking action to fix this. Whatever surprise they have in store for us while the competition is in progress copying the Wii, it should be very good.

Yes it would ave been worth it. Now give me my HD "next-gen" Wii please!

Yes I do think Nintendo let me down. But my expectations were pretty high. swrdof1000trths

Well, then don't have high expectations, problem solved. :P
