I see Snake in your avatar.  MGS: PO is a game not to miss.

It fills in a lot between MG1 and MGS3 on how Big Boss became the man the Solid Snake killed.

It doesn't matter which one you get. Just hurry and trade it in because there are plenty of people who genuinely want a wii.

milesfssdfvsc

Depending on what games and accessories you have, you could easily get 400-500 if not more on craigslist for it.  You should sell it and then use the money to get a 360 or the ds and have lots of money left.

I sold my wii alone for $400 not including what I got for accessories and stuff and was able to buy the ps3 and 360 hd-dvd add-on.

Tradeing in consoles is a rip off...=D

The remote play feature between PS3 and PSP is pretty useless, at least at the moment. If you're going to get PSP, get it because you are interested in its games and other capabilities. You can't go wrong with the DS, either.

Keep your wiiKrYpTiC_SnAke

I love when people are like "just keep it" because clearly if he liked it and if it was more then a paper weight he wouldnt be looking to get rid of it.  Just because it has swept up the casual community doesn't mean that gamers who dont like it should be forced to remain part of the fad after acknowledging their mistake.

More titles does not imply quality titles, especially considering the hardware is abyssmal.

All the PS3/360 games will come out on the Wii anyway (well not all of 'em, but a lot of them will).

In that case, craigslist it, get the ds and save the rest of the money for future ps360 games.  This fall your pocket will be glad you did it with the 10+ high profile releases.

Sure they will...because I am sure the wii can pull off the MGS4's or run the white engine.  I would love to see a wii version of MGS4 just so that I could laugh.

Well if you want a psp to sync with your ps3, don't even buy it then. It works so terribly bad at the moment, its not worth it. Though quantity wise, the psp has many many more amazing games than the ds has. Just go based on what franchises you like.

He wouldnt be able to get as much for it on ebay though.  On ebay prices are only slightly higher then retail, and people don't tend to bid on the used ones nearly as much as the new ones.  So I dont know how good an idea ebay is.

Well considering he has a ps3, I think Tekken 6 will take care of his fighting needs.  And superior versions of SoulCal.

Is that supposed to be in defense of the wii?  I dont see your point.  People should expect an inferior product when they pay less?  If that is your claim then I cant say I disagree.

Wow...no. How can you be so sure? Most games on thoses systems are made with hardware power in mind.

Plus the wii doesn't need more slap-on wii controlled multiplats.

Yes, as well as the other franchises, and considering how quickly developers for ps3 are jumping ship, we are going to see many more titles com to the wii....

More titles does not imply quality titles, especially considering the hardware is abyssmal.

Did that stop ps2, the system with the worst hardware last gen, from having quality titles? No.

Slightly worse hardware.  It wasn't ps1 ver. 2 as wii is basically a gamecube (last gen) competing in the next gen all over.  The hardware difference of last gen was insignificant just as the hardware difference between ps3 and 360 is currently insignificant.

It is kind of sad when a "last gen" system is killing the competition in sales.....but you're not making sence, the Ps2 is capable of great titles, but a more powerful system isn't? hmmmm

So then how come the PS2 had such great games? You trying to say that the Wii can't have high quality games?

NobuoMusicMaker


Actually, it really doesn't. All you learn is how he aquired the funds to create Outer Heaven. You know WHY he did it if you played MGS3.
