Ok so I bought a Wii recently and played a few games. Redsteel was absolutely horrible but Zelda was pretty cool. But im actually thinking about sellin it cuz I can't really think of any good reasons to keep it. The only game I can think of that I know I would definitely buy is RE4. And one game isn't enough to keep it when I could use the money to buy a few 360 games I want. So does anyone know of any good games comin out?

Also, when is Nintendo gona get this thing online? If I could play Wii online that would be sweet.

THAT, my friend, is an excellent question.

Regardless, I still don't understand why people ask if they should sell their Wiis.  And why do people ask about what games are coming out?  Like we would know any better?  You're on a site that covers this stuff, for crying out loud.  Do some research!

 Well said.

 

Also..Is it not a bit early to decide to sell your wii for a few xbox games? I went down this road last gen with my old xbox and it ends badly. If you get a good deal to sell it you may as well, but as I said, I'd atleast give it a year before even considering selling it. Just rent those games for now..

Have a long, good look at the games for Wii out now. You have? Well, Wii will be continuing all the great Nintendo merchandises, including Mario, Metroid, Smash Bros and even another Zelda game. Plus, there's original games like Treasure Island Z and Sadness that might interest you. Buy a GC game, maybe even a VC game for nostalgia.

If any of those don't interest you, I'm not sure what will.

You should keep your Wii because you spent $250+ on it. If you sell it you won't get more than $150. You like losing $100?

I second that. Obviously, you are completely naive or just boughtit for kicks and now dont want it.

How can you or anyone that has a wii NOT know what games were already out or are coming out? How can you NOT know what games have good reviews and which ones dont? And how can you NOT know any of this since you are here at Gamespot, a premiere gaming site, and could have easily read game reviews and player reviews and game list for the wii.

TC, sell the wii. You obviously dont need it.

Sell it so someone who really wants one (like me) can finally get one.  I'm tired of going to my friends house to play it. Ugh.

Sell it. I would do the same thing if I have a 360. But the 360 will be in sales not my Wii.

That is what Im thinking...Why would someone have to come on message boards to as if they should keep or sell a gaming console? You would think people could make up their own minds...

If the Wii has nothing for you "or others complaining".....SELL IT....The good news is, Nintendo gets the sale and the popularity anyways, which means another gen out of them......

I appreciate the polite advice. Not so much the whiny douchebag responses. * I buy a wii so ima xbox fanboy?* wtf?

I just thought id see what others had to say, thats why I posted the question.
