i was thinking about getting one and i figured my launch game could be metroid, i could play that until galaxy, and then play galaxy until ssbb :)

also, is anyone worried about the future of the wii after the big 3 pass on? i mean what's left for 2008 that can compare to that?

Well in 2008 - Mario Kart Wii, Wii Fit (I think), and maybe a new Animal Crossing (hinted at by Miyamoto), and cross your fingers maybe some sort of new Zelda.

I think this holiday season is when the Wii hits home. Some of the titles I'm looking forward are: The Simpsons Game, Raving Rabbids 2 and Looney Tunes: Acme Arsenal. I'm not too big on Nintendo made games though, so Mario based games or especially Super Smash is not on my list this Q4.

big 3? thats a load of crap I say there are tons of great games and even the "casual" games are fun...I don't get what is up with this casual game stuff to me a game is a game. Any time is a good time to buy a wii in my opinion its fun to play VC games you might have missed years ago or just never finished or something like that.

If you get a Wii right now then there is Super Paper Mario, Zelda, and RE 4 to get. Also, there are good multiplayer games like Raving Rabbids. This fall you have the big 3, batallion wars, and RE: UC. In early 08 you have Mario Kart. For me, that is plenty of games ot keep me occupied until about March, and by then I'm sure there will be more games to look forward to!

So yes, investing in the Wii now is a good idea. Oh, and the VC offers some classics as well!

The big three will be great, but I am worried about 2008. Seems like it'll just be casual games next year. Hopefully I'm wrong!

There's no way a new Zelda is coming out in 2008!

People need to see that there are game's Not made by Nintendo that are good.

Some may still be trenched in the GCN Mindset, were you only bougth 2-3 games a year, all First Party becasue they were the only good ones, but times have changed.

Look at SSX Blur, Godfather, RE4 (Ok, its a Port, but its the best version of them all) and more if you look.

Well Nintendo said that the newest Zelda would come sooner that many would think. So no one, myself included really knows when it will come out. I personally can't wait for Phantom Hourglass on the DS on October 1st.
