Well, if you like games like Mario, Zelda, and Metroid then get a Wii.

Either a game or another console? Damn that wouldnt be hard for me :P

Buy the Wii and make shure your first game is Super Mario Galaxy, seriously, its gonna blow your mind

You'l understand why all those GOTY awards.

If you are filthy rich buy:

Metroid Prime 3 Corruption

Zelda Twilight Princess

Brawl

No More Heroes

Resident Evil 4 Wii (buy it regardless of having the GC/PS2/PC version)

etc...

Also buy:

World of Goo

and tons of Virtual Console classics

The GH Wii scored higher then the 360, so you should get a Wii and GH for the Wii.

If there are any games on the Wii that interests you, then its worth it. I have both a Wii and a 360 and I enjoy both consoles.

NOOOOO! Steer clear of call of duty 3! Get Medal of Honor Heroes 2, and wait on the conduit and call of duty 5.

I think you should put Super Mario Galaxy on your #1 priority list.
Then after that get Brawl, Mario Kart, TP, MP3. Well that's just my opintion anyways.

Replace Pokemon Battle Revolution and Call of Duty 3 with Super Mario Galaxy and Medal of Honor: Heroes 2.

Believe me, Medal of Honor: Heroes 2 is a better choice if you want a good FPS. It also has 32 on-line multiplayer. And Super Mario Galaxy is the best platformer since Mario 64. SMG is a Must Have!

My most recomended games are Super Mario Galaxy(of course), Super Smash Bros. Brawl, Metroid Prime 3, and Zelda Twilight Princess. All of those are AAA titles except for Mario Kart which is just crazy fun! I'd say avoid No More Heroes. Wait untill the sequel, because they might fix the oodles of rediculous flaws the first one had.

Avoid no more heroes if you wanna miss out on one of the funnest, most surreal and original games on wii, it's positives outweigh the negatives.

Yes it is very unique and stylish and I loved the ending, but If Gameplay is a big deal to you this might not deliver. The missions get worse and shorter after Destroy Man and he is one of the first assassins. This game just kind of peters out the closer you get to the end. The last mission in particular was abysmal, but the boss at the end of it was fun. The combat is surprisingly fun for how repetative it is. there are also advanced techniques you can pull off if your timing is up to it. The side jobs were all boring, overworld is glitchy and unfinished as well as pointless space to ride through, the bike controls are unresponsive, and the Assassination missions get worse and worse very quickly. I'd personally say that this game had huge potential, but killed itself from what seemed like hastily pushing out an unfinished game. I eagerly await the sequel and hope they fix these many glaring problems. there is no excuse for this low quality. Killer 7 was far more finished. I do not know what happened here.

If you are going to buy a Wii primarily for Wii games, like Mario Kart and Brawl, then don't get it. If you are going to buy a Wii for the virtual console games, Gamecube backwards-compatibility and wii games to boot, then get it. The thing a lot of people don't realize is, you are only getting so much out of your Wii if you play it offline. Without my classic games and Gamecube collection, I would only have like 8 Wii games, only a couple of which are really satisfying.

I still say Super Mario Galaxy is the worst Mario game I have ever played. Super Mario Sunshine ftw.

yea it is. it has a number ofrealy great games. and it does offer experice's that are eather not on the 360 orfew of. trust me once you play MP3 with the wii mote you will not look at console FPS's again. in fact tring to play FPS's on my ps3 with the duel shock makes me wanna cry now lol. afteryou play MP3 for a while load up GoW and just think how much better that game would play with something like the Wiimote lol. But be aware IF your into mostly games like GoW GTA4 ect pickings can be slim on the Wii.

Wii version is pretty lame, don't get it if you get a Wii -- unresponsive/gimmicky motion controls.
