Nope. Don't want one.

Not even for free.

88Ghost89

Wow, fanboy much?

 

Nope, no fanboy here.  

You would take a Wii even if it were offered to you for free? Even if you would never play it and all you would use it for was a paper weight, you wouldn't take it...

...what should I call you then?

Sadly, even if didn't want one, I am quite sure you could gain a profit off one. This only show how much of a diehard fanboy you have to be.

If you didnt already own a wii, and if someone gave you $250 would you buy a wii?

 

I wouldnt, i'd spend the money on shoes and shirts. The wii is just meh.   

JPOBS

No, cause I already have a Wii. I'd buy some games for my Wii & XBox 360. I use the rest on movies, DVD's and clothes.

If I had said

"I'd take it... THEN SMASH THE WII LOLO!!!"

I would understand you calling me a fanboy.

 

But I simply don't want one, regardless of the price. The price doesn't some how make it a good console in my eyes. If someone was offering me an Atari 5200 for free, I'd decline that too.

Same here.

Why?

its not really cranking out major titles right about now, and i odnt think the system has a must own game. Zelda is on gc. 

if someone gave me 250 around the time metroid, smash and mario dropped, i'd buy it, i odnt really see the point of owning one now.

Well after I had it exchanged into pounds I'd put it in the bank for a few months and then buy one. The Wii isn't established yet for me to buy one today.

Anything below a 8 isnt worth purchasing.]

Those that got 8's were posts, and half games that dotn interest me. with the exception of zelda (which i own on the cube but havent played yet cuz im too busy right now)

and warioware getting a 9 is laughable on gamespots part.

What if someone gave you the option to either have a Wii for free (that you had to keep) or $125 for games for your current system of choice ?

 

 

diggyzoom

Games :D  I already have a Wii.  Besides, $250 isn't nearly enough.  Not only do you need to take tax into account, it costs $310 CDN.

No, because I would know that it is still nearly impossible to find one and wasting time searching would be stupid.

$250? I already own a Wii so I would put it with my other cash to fund my new PC I want to build.

You should look a little harder... there is quite a bit of worthwhile games on the Wii already...
  • Excite Truck
  • Godfather: Blackhand Edition
  • Madden 07
  • Rayman Raving Rabbids
  • Prince of Persia Rival Swords
  • Sonic and the Secret Rings
  • SSX Blur
  • Super Monkey Ball: Banana Blitz
  • Super Paper Mario
  • The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
  • Tramua Center: Second Opinion
  • WarioWare: Smooth Moves

Same.

and Owned :P

:lol:  Way to dodge the argument.  Wario-Ware is an awesome game, and those other AAs are excellent games, you just need to be more open to different genres.

Not even if I could find one in store, or someone gave me one free. IF someone did give me one free I'd just sell it and buy computer upgrades.

Indeed. i disliked most of those games.

I purchased many of them before i started gamespot so how could i have known?

looking back on it, games like phantasy star online, chain of memories, nascar 2000, sword of mana, sonic adventure battle. etc, were complete trash. So i stand by my statement.

 

The only one i really liked was mario kart and ssb on n64.

Under the assumption that I don't own one (which I do), no. It would be impossible for me to find one in stock at any store and somehow that money will end up being spent to rent a PS2, MGS, and MGS2 in order to relieve my frustration over not finding a Wii.

None of those games are worthwhile.

Zelda is on Gc, and paper mario isnt worth 250. the rest of them are complete trash.

No, you just don't like them.

Complete trash right?  Just because you say so?  Wow.  They still got solid scores and hold their own. 

The only reason anyone would say these are trash is to back up their arguement of the Wii having no good games.  Which you seem to be doing. :roll:

Nope, no fanboy here.

any unbiased gamer would gladly accept any of the three systems if they were free.

you = biased fanboy. 

You could easily replace "unbiased gamer" for "sane person" in your post.
