worth buying a wii??

Ok, I already have a PS3 and am not intending to flame but is a Wii worth it? Also couple question..

Is it worth €200?

Are the games region free?

Can you play DVD's?

Are there good multiplayer games? I'm looking for some games that you can play with 2 players and some mature games like FPS, action racing too.

Also want to notice that I used to have a GC before and enjoyed that games but for some reason I don't like 'em anymore..

200 euros is a bit expensive i think, but not by a lot..over here its a about 249.99 plus 14% tax (damn canada, or should i say ontario). but it all depends on how its priced in your region, because it varies from regions.

but overall, the wii is defintley worth the purchase.

Unfortunately the games are not region free, they are region locked, so you wont be able to import games from other regions and play them on your console. and No the Wii cannot play DVD's

Multiplayer wise, im not sure about a whole lot of games, but some i can recommend are Super Mario Galaxy, Metroid Prime 3, Super Mario Strikers, Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition, No More Heroes. LOZ: Twlight Princess...i dont know many good multiplayer games, but some that are coming out are Super Smash Bros Brawl and Mario Kart Wii. And if you had a GC from before, i think you will be able to notice more easier just how fun the Wii is, and how Nintendo have changed their direction.

Overall i think the Wii is defintley worth the purchase.

It depends on what you like. I own a 360 but yet I play the Wii far more often. It has more games that I like. If all you like are online FPS, don't even bother.ozzsoad

Ignore him. The Wii has Medal of Honor Heroes 2 (rather wordy name for a game, don't you think). That game rocks. It has superior controls and awesome online. Buy a Wii, MoHH2, a zapper (even though it can get uncomfortable) Excite truck, some steering wheel attachment, a classic controller, and Mario Galaxy. You'll be set for a long time.

So you say "ignore him" because he said that the Wii isn't as good of a system if you're into First-Person Shooters, but then you only name one worthy FPS.

His point was that if you're into FPSs, don't bother getting a Wii. If you like FPSs, the 360 has dozens and dozens of good ones (if you're into it), the Wii does not.

Why did you even bother disagreeing with his post? Just wondering.

it cant play DvDs but the wii has great games

Super mario galaxy, Soon Supersmashbrosbrawl, Mariokart wii

and theres alot more great games

Broaden your horizons man. All the things you listed you can do on PS3 so why get a Wii? Get mature FPS's and racing games on your PS3. Get a Wii if you want to play games like Zelda, Metroid, Mario Galaxy, No More Heros etc. There's also great games like Zak and Wiki that you don't get on any other console.

If you've never played any of these games before or past games in the series you might think they aren't for you or you "don't like the look of them". You should still give it a try. I own a PS3 and Wii. I play my Wii a hell of a lot more than my PS3.

I'm a long long time PC gamer and I've haven't found much to like in console games since my Super Nintendo. However Wii caught my attention as something different. The Wii is great for social gaming with friends who are not serious game players. Many of the games are approachable and the Wii remote is a fun and easily learned interface.

I rarely play Wii without friends though. If I'm gonna play something one-player I'd rather have the depth, challenge, graphics, and sound of a PC game. My guess is you'll find the same with a PS3 and a Wii. Look for fun multiplayer games on the Wii that take good advantage of the remote. Play anything else on your PS3.

Despite what you may hear, MOH:H2 isn't that great. It's not a BAD game, by any means, but the multiplayer can be lackluster (like, 5 maps, no voice chat, barely any communication at all, and rather ghastly graphics,) and a pretty dull single player with literally no story.

It's a generic WWII shooter.

Despite everything I just said, I actually enjoy the game, but those are the facts.
