i think you should saveup to geta wii but keep your 360 cuz that has kick ass games that'll never come to the wii so you should keep that, and good games that are coming out...?

Super Smash Brothers Brawl of course

and besides that i dont really know...i haven't really been keeping up on my video games really...

others might know though...

It's a great party system for Wii sports alone. But truely to me, the only games worth purchasing so far are Mario Galaxy, Smash Bros, (if it ever comes out, but it will be welllll worth it) Zelda, and Zack and Wiki.

Mario Kart wii should rock, but other than that, 360 is the way to go. I love my Wii too though, they are just 2 completly different types of systems.

The Wii becomes more and more worth it everyday. I own a 360 as well but I find myself playing the Wii more often.

There are games like Super Mario Galaxy, Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, Metroid Prime 3, Super Paper Mario, Resident Evil 4, Mario Strikers Charged, Guitar Hero III, BWii 2, Medal of Honor: Heroes 2, Excite Truck, The Godfather, SSX Blur, Rayman Raving Rabbids, Fire Emblem, Zack & Wiki....

Then Smash Bros, Brawl, Mario Kart, No More Heroes, Endless Ocean, ect. later this year.

My parents had gotten me a Wii for christmas this year and I had already had a 360. I never asked for the Wii and never really thought I would want one but now that I have got one I love it. Although the 360 has many more games the Wii is a nice change and still has some pretty sweet games. I think you should get a Wii along with Super Mario Galaxy, Resident Evil4 and Zelda: Twilight Princess

The Wii is a great second system and the first party games (Mario Zelda and Metroid particularly) are brilliant.

its a great system for mutliplayer offline and nintendo franchises...if you like nintendo's top franchise games its definitely worth getting....but dont sell your 360, they're completely different and personally i wouldn't be able to have Wii as a standalone console.

The Wii is especially worth it if you missed out on all those great Gamecube games. It really is pretty much 7 game consoles in one. Definately worth the $250 price tag IMO.

It is more worth it now than ever since it's release. The Wii recently has had an influx of great games, like Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Galaxy, Zack and Wiki, Geometry Wars: Galaxies. It also has some older games that are really fun as well, most notably Resident Evil 4, along with Twilight Princess. This year alone it has Super Smash Brothers Brawl, No More Heroes, De Blob, maybe Sadness and perhpas Obscure.

The Wii is awesome, its the ulitimate next gen console for fun factor in my opinion. The only real problem that you could have with it is the storage capacity but it can easily be changed, other than that everything is awesome, i dont reccomend some racing games on the Wii though as the controls are slightly clunky.

Not necessarily, if you playing online although do no get a wii,because it has online games but the options on how to play them is minimal, you have Medal of Honor which is ok, but better stuff is on the 360, if your going to be playing offline get a wii. it has or it will have at least 10 to 15 games by the end of this year you can play well into next year, but Brawl will keep us hardcore gamers occupied even though I don't have that much time for games anymore.

For Super Mario Galaxy and Mario Kart, it's definitely worth it.
