The fact that it was out in the open at Costco only a month after it had come out, the packaged games (Twilight Princess, Excite Truck, and of course Wii Sports), and that my family at the time had the greenbacks. It is certainly worth it's weight in gold but there is sumthin about the PS3 that makes it more fun. Love the Wii still so don't think I'm a hater...just the way it is in my world.

The fact that it was different... I was tired of the normal style of gameplay. There was no reason to get one of the other next gen systems because the game play is the same as before, it is just the graphics that have changed. I was happy just playing my older systems that I grew up on but when I saw e3 in 2006 I knew I had to have the Wii.

  1. I wanted a new system, and it was the most affordable.
  2. I was intrigued by the new controls.
  3. I couldn't see myself passing on the amazing 1st party Nintendo titles for this gen. I got to have my Zelda, Metroid, and Mario games. Not to mention all the other great sequels and original titles we'll undobtably see.
  4. Virtual Console. I'm a hardcore, old-school gamer.

The main reasons.. Ive owned pretty much all the Nintendo consoles except for the game boy advance and the super nintendo. I love the franchises that Nintendo provides us with, was looking for a change in gaming (wii-mote fixed that nicely). Lastly I have a 6 year old sister that likes videogames, and personally, I don't want her being traumatized by stuff like the flood (they scare me enough haha).

1) its a Nintedo console ^^
2) Zelda
3) SSB
4) Wii-Mote
5) my friends are all wii fans and convinced me in not getting a ps3 (thank god)
6) Cheap, non of them are in chronological order except for this and #5.

But im honestly considering 360 in the near future. when i can afford it and an HD tv. LOL as if that will happen. 2 years from now maybe.

I got it for Sonic and the Secret Rings mostly. It seems that the Wii is SEGA's new console in spirit with all the love they're giving it...

The games. Always, always, always the games. Already I have 9 Wii games, and I'm looking to pick up another 10 or so before the end of the year. That's more than I would consider buying for both competing consoles and the PC combined.
