I have not turned on my Wii for three months

I wish I had enough time to play all the Wii games I want, but college gets in the way of that, hehe. I still haven't even picked up Galaxy, and I still have a lot of completion stuff to do with RE4, MP3, LoZ:TP and Chocobo's Dungeon. Oh, and WiiFit is an almost daily thing for me because I do all the yoga stuff on there. And then there's Tales to look forward to as well as Arc Rise and that something-ouija-ninja-weird-name game (it's like Odin Sphere, but with ninjas) on the horizon just to name a couple.

Plus I can't get enough of the VC. It's like my childhood and the current gen all rolled in to one. hehe.

I know a lot of people really hate the direction Ninty went this gen, but I'm happy for it. I mean, sure WiiMusic looks silly and I'll be passing on that, but nothing the other consoles have to offer really appeal to me. GTA? MGS? Halo? Gears? BioShock? None of those are my style at all. Not saying they are bad (well, I think GTA is bad, but whatever), they are simply not games that I'm interested in. The only games I'm even interested in that aren't on the Wii are Diablo 3 and Street Fighter 4, which are both on the PC, so I'm set. (And don't tell me SF4 sucks on a PC, my PC is my fighting rig, as I play 3rd Strike and others online via 2DF Fighting servers.)

i have a similar problem with the wii, but really it's only because of the game drought. I am playing on the VC a bit though.

games are coming for the wii, but not atm

You guys who are slating the Wii might just have too much freetime. Get a full-time job, hang out with your buddies more, and deal with about half an hour to spare a day, and you'll see which console appeals to you most.

It's all about how your lifestyle, and more importantly, game interests, fit in with one another. Get to grips with the fact that the Wii is just a Nintendo console that has sporadic good releases like the Cube did, and you'll probably appreciate it more.

Okay. You missed wiiware than and other good games for download. Hopefully with the time you spent not playing the wii you were doing something productive. Like working.

I agree,

With all the Wiiware and Virtual Console titles avaliable, you should be seeing at least a little time with your wii.

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.

Don't tell me you hated SMG...

What is wrong with Smash Bros.? Nintendo added online, which is what every Smash fan wanted...

Also, what is wrong with Mario Kart Wii? It is much better than Double Dash.

Metroid Prime 3 >>> Metroid Prime 2 trash.

Fine to complain about 3rd party titles on Wii, but 1st party titles have been pretty dang good. I do agree about Wii Music though...it looks like utter trash.

I havent played my N64 in ages

WORST CONSOLE CONFIRMED!

THan you should probably sell it someone who will enjoy it more than you will, because there are plenty of people looking for one.darkslider99

No. If he did that then he'd have nothing to complain about to strangers on the internet.

Funny isn't it? 32 million Wiis sold to date and somehow no-one's using them... just what are all those people using them for I wonder?67gt500

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,

Black-Fight

see you dont have the console so how can you act as if you know how long you will like it for or how long youll play it, or if its not a dissapointment to you.

Ive tried to make the most out of my wii

rented so much crap, rented some stuff i liked, but wasnt worth the purchase outside of the big titles everyone knows about. I liked wii for the first few months but there is just not enough to keep me and most people on this board playing it alot, or ever

dude, what air wolf said is so freaking true. I'm sick of all these "Manticores" trying to make system wars serious.

I played mario kart a few hours ago...

I ended up giving my PS3 to my brother. I miss it sometimes but I suppose I can always go visit when I feel the need!!!

I haven't played a game on my Wii since June... and that was Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. I haven't played a Wii game on my Wii since August of last year (Metroid Prime 3: Corruption). I probably would use it more if I could actually find copies of games like Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, Beyond Good & Evil, etc.

I've put more time in on my 360 over the past month and a half since I got it than my Wii which I got in February 2007.foxhound_fox

I'm afraid that is the case with me, too. I try to be interested in my Wii, I really do, but there's nothing that makes me want to play it. Not now, and not on the horizon.

There are good games in it, yes, but they are very few. Super Mario Galaxy is one of the best games I played in the last years, TP was a good experience (although slightly "been there, done that"-ish) and SSBB is great fun with friends. Some other honorable mentions are Fire Emblem, Mario Kart and Super Paper Mario. But that's about it. And in the future there's nothing that holds my attention, either. Only the prospect of a new Zelda, but that's in a distant future, and nothing is known about it yet.

That's why I gave in and bought myself a 360. It should arrive in a few days time. I think it was a very good choice, there are many games that interest me out there, and many soon to come (very soon, actually). Time will tell.
