Worst console I've ever bought. I've got Mario, Smash bros, Wiifit, RE4, Wii sports, Mario Kart, RE Chronicles, Metroid 3, Zelda TP, Endless Ocean. And I can't even be bothered to play them as I own a 360 and that gets all my playing time as even it's average games like Crackdown are better than anything on Wii.

So disappointed in Nintendo this gen, they should go software only like Sega. Dreamcast was better than Wii and that killed Sega, I don't know how Nintendo have survived with the Wii. I guess I'll sell it as Wii Music doesn't interest me at all. I would have kept it for something like F-Zero with 32 player races online, sadly Nintendo think online gaming is not important. And games like F-Zero take second place to Wii sports island or whatever it's called. You know that game were you throw a frisbee at a dog or something.

*mega sigh*

I know that by buying a Wii I'm now part of the problem, but I'm sorry, please forgive me gaming gods. I promise to only buy good consoles from now on.

The only one who should be disappointed is Nintendo, its not there fault you lost interest in something fast. If I had a Wii & Xbox 360, I be smart and make the best use of both consoles unlike you. What you also fail to understand is that the Dreamcast died in 2007 in Japan, after a few more games were released. Nintendo survived with the Wii because they have people who actually injoy playing there games over without getting bored of them.

Go ahead, sell it, you are not even close to using the Wii for every thing it can do and even if you think you have, you'll fail to understand what I mean. No you should keep it any way, why buy something if your only going to play the games once, what a waste of money, be a smart buyer next time around.

Maybe, just maybe, he bought it thinking that they might, you know, make some good games for it? Sorry if that is a massive leap forward in your normal thought process.

Wii is my side console. Its there to turn on once every 2-3 years when a game for gamers is released. Then the rest of the time, its a great decorative ornament.

I don't know how Nintendo have survived with the Wii. -NickD-

They've survived because most people who buy a Wii don't know the difference between a good and bad game.

I haven't played a Wii game in a while... let alone any current gen games. I've been playing PS2 and GC games for the last month or so -- also, been busy with school.. so I won't get time to play any of my consoles until around christmas.

Ebay is your friend.deuce85

This is true. Go on eBay, and buy more games. The Wii is a system where you need to actually buy more then ten games. I have about 30(never paid more then $41 for one btw).

I mean, it's been more then a year since I turned on my 360, but the only game I own for it is Kameo.

I played over 40 hours on my wii the last 2 weeks because of Fire Emblem. and played some mario kart as well.

it's not about the system but about the games you like. I don't see why you aren't playing mariokart though. there's new tournaments every week.

:roll: Really this is not correct. The wii Surivied beacuse people havent diffrent taste in games. what you think is bad could be the greates game someone plays. It the taste of the game. easy to play, to pick up, causual gamers.

i haven't played an actual game on my 360 since i beat halo3...

really though i remember a period with my ps2 where even with devil may cry, ffx etc i couldn't bring myself to ever play the console, especially when i was enjoying my pc gaming

took a friends gamecube to get me back into consoles

360 is just as dissapointing to me as watching my beloved DC support die
